util/cutils: Fix incorrect integer->float conversion caught by clang
Clang does not like do_strtosz()'s code to guard against overflow:
qemu/util/cutils.c:245:23: error: implicit conversion from 'unsigned long' to 'double' changes value from
18446744073709550592 to
18446744073709551616 [-Werror,-Wimplicit-int-float-conversion]
The warning will be enabled by default in clang 10. It is not
available for clang <= 9.
val * mul >= 0xfffffffffffffc00 is indeed wrong. 0xfffffffffffffc00
is not representable exactly as double. It's half-way between the
representable values 0xfffffffffffff800 and 0x10000000000000000.
Which one we get is implementation-defined. Bad.
We want val * mul > (the largest uint64_t exactly representable as
double). That's 0xfffffffffffff800. Write it as nextafter(0x1p64, 0)
with a suitable comment.
