They're certainly undesirable, but I wouldn't call them unlikely. The others you pointed out definitely are, so I marked them appropriately. > > Source/JavaScriptCore/wasm/WasmMemory.cpp:129 > > + goto fail; > > "goto"!

I said "LIKELY", not "UNLIKELY". That's because the alternative is to fail and crash. They better be LIKELY. > The others you pointed out definitely are, so I marked them appropriately. > > > > Source/JavaScriptCore/wasm/WasmMemory.cpp:129 > > > + goto fail; > > > > "goto"!

That's because the alternative is to fail > and crash. They better be LIKELY. It'll only crash if the option is set though. If unset, it'll just return false and generate a slow-mode memory. It's totally normal for this to fail, I just want an option to catch when it does so that I can benchmark knowing we used the fast version! > > The others you pointed out definitely are, so I marked them appropriately. > > > > > > Source/JavaScriptCore/wasm/WasmMemory.cpp:129 > > > > + goto fail; > > > > > > "goto"!

One of my favorite coding constructs that gets so little use because peeps don't know how to use it right, and fear it. I don't think this is why people don't use "goto"

My point was that there are valid uses for it, and this was the main one IMHO. Or at least, it was until ... (In reply to Saam Barati from comment #8) > I think more idiomatic JSC style would be to name a lambda fail, and 'return > fail()' everywhere you 'goto fail' I agree with this. This is a much better solution. I knew I should have scratch my head a little longer before saying yes to the gotos.

Yeah I know :) My response is a bit of a tease as well. > are valid uses for it, and this was the main one IMHO.

This is a much better solution. I knew I should have > scratch my head a little longer before saying yes to the gotos. Just to clarify, I'm not trying to argue that one is better than the other. (I could make the argument that LLVM probably produces better code for what we care about in a function like this using the goto variant. It'll either produce smaller code, or code with one fewer function call.) I'm just arguing it's more in line with JSC style not to use goto.

Will fix: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=170242 goto is just a reflex for my 2000-era C++, and years of C programming :) I can post-modernize my C++.
