Linux and FPU

Hello,

Can somebody point me to some general places, where I can look on how FPU
support is implemented. I understand that there is not one place, where things
done, the only I know, that there should be places for detecting FPU hardware
and places with assembly routines for pushing around floating point registers,
assembly/C-hybrid code for handling floating point exceptions.
I'm interesting mostly in x86 (386) things, not other architectures.

If you know some good docs, please point me to them.

P.S. Sorry if it's a wrong list to ask such questions.
