Where such a mapping exists, it would be helpful to tie the policies represented by various RoundingMode constants to the equivalent rounding attribute defined by IEEE 754-2019, the latest version of the floating-point standard:

JDK-8240624: Note mapping of RoundingMode constants to equivalent IEEE 754-2019 policy http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/8240624.0/ <http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/8240624.0/> Looks fine. Do you think the IEEE 754-2019 attribute names should have some kind of formatting, e.g., @code or italics? Please review the patch below; I'll update the file copyright year before pushing.
