Only positive overflow is tested. Should add a test for negative overflow (e.g., -999...9) to ensure both clamping directions work.

[oech3]

Negative is root test, would not work on the CI.
...
Oh yes. It should work with permission denied.

[oech3]

Is this operation duplicated at somethere?

Footnotes

1. 38 benchmarks were skipped, so the baseline results were used instead. If they were deleted from the codebase, click here and archive them to remove them from the performance reports. ↩

2. No successful run was found on main (b3ad96f) during the generation of this report, so 4bfbbdd was used instead as the comparison base. There might be some changes unrelated to this pull request in this report. ↩
