The development of sound and efficient tools that automatically perform floating-point round-off error analysis is an active area of research with applications to embedded systems and scientific computing. In this paper we describe VCFloat2, a novel extension to the VCFloat tool for verifying floating-point C programs in Coq. Like VCFloat, VCFloat2 soundly and automatically computes round-off error bounds on floating-point expressions, but does so to higher accuracy; with better performance; with more generality for nonstandard number formats; with the ability to reason about external (user-defined or library) functions; and with improved modularity for interfacing with other program verification tools in Coq. We evaluate the performance of VCFloat2 using common benchmarks; compared to other state-of-the art tools, VCFloat2 computes competitive error bounds and transparent certificates that require less time for verification.
