+.SH NAME
+fegetround, fesetround \- get and set current rounding direction
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+\fB#include <fenv.h>
+.br
+.sp
+int fegetround(void);
+.br
+int fesetround(int\fP \fIround\fP\fB);
+.br
+\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIfegetround\fP() function shall get the current rounding direction.
+.LP
+The \fIfesetround\fP() function shall establish the rounding direction
+represented by its argument \fIround\fP. If the
+argument is not equal to the value of a rounding direction macro,
+the rounding direction is not changed.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.LP
+The \fIfegetround\fP() function shall return the value of the rounding
+direction macro representing the current rounding
+direction or a negative value if there is no such rounding direction
+macro or the current rounding direction is not
+determinable.
+.LP
+The \fIfesetround\fP() function shall return a zero value if and only
+if the requested rounding direction was established.
+.SH ERRORS
+.LP
+No errors are defined.
+.LP
+\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.LP
+The following example saves, sets, and restores the rounding direction,
+reporting an error and aborting if setting the rounding
+direction fails:

+\fB#include <fenv.h>
+#include <assert.h>
+void f(int round_dir)
+{

+ int save_round;
+ int setround_ok;
+ save_round = fegetround();
+ setround_ok = fesetround(round_dir);
+ assert(setround_ok == 0);
+ /* ... */
+ fesetround(save_round);
+ /* ... */
