Is there supposed to be no empty line between the case statement and the
comment?
Or is the comment only supposed to contain "Fall through"?
The last comment before case or default keyword (or user label before
case/default) has to match one of the following regexps:
//-fallthrough$
//@fallthrough@$
//[ \t]*FALL(S | |-)?THR(OUGH|U)\.?[ \t]*$
//[ \t]*Fall(s | |-)?[Tt]hr(ough|u)\.?[ \t]*$
//[ \t]*fall(s | |-)?thr(ough|u)\.?[ \t]*$
/\*-fallthrough\*/
/\*@fallthrough@\*/
/\*[ \t]*FALL(S | |-)?THR(OUGH|U)\.?[ \t]*\*/
/\*[ \t]*Fall(s | |-)?[Tt]hr(ough|u)\.?[ \t]*\*/
/\*[ \t]*fall(s | |-)?thr(ough|u)\.?[ \t]*\*/
So, you could e.g. write:
/* If the lane index isn't a constant, then the next case will error.
*/
/* Fall through. */
but not what you have, free form is not accepted.
Thanks. Given the discussion going on about the acceptable comment formats,
is it preferable to use comments in the gcc codebase at all, or should I
use gcc_fallthrough () (with an explanatory comment if needed)?
