I think that ship has sailed, for instance, see // NOLINT comments that are also supported to silence diagnostics. Also, the original bug report mentions that flex generates code using these constructs, so there are real world libraries using this construct. > In addition to this making comments have semantic meaning, the meaning is > different from gcc. We're covering the cases GCC does that make sense within Clang -- or have we deviated from GCC in a way that is significant to our users? > I don't think we should support this. I think we should -- C did not have any other way to resolve this issue without C2x support or compiler extensions, and fallthrough is definitely an issue in C. While it's not my favorite solution to silencing the diagnostics, it solves a real problem that C programmers are hitting.

That is not an automatic reason to revert a patch, especially one that has been accepted by a code owner. ================ Comment at: clang/lib/Sema/AnalysisBasedWarnings.cpp:1239 + llvm::Regex("(/\\*[ \\t]*fall(s | |-)?thr(ough|u)\\.?[ \\t]*\\*/)" + "|(//[ \\t]*fall(s | |-)?thr(ough|u)\\.?[ \\t]*)", + llvm::Regex::IgnoreCase); ---------------- thakis wrote: > Also, this adds a regex match for every comment line, yes?
