Subject: [PATCH 2/4] compiler_attributes.h: Add 'fallthrough' pseudo keyword for switch/case use
Date: Sat,  5 Oct 2019 09:46:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <79237afe056af8d81662f183491e3589922b8ddd.1570292505.git.joe@perches.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1570292505.git.joe@perches.com>

Reserve the pseudo keyword 'fallthrough' for the ability to convert the
various case block /* fallthrough */ style comments to appear to be an
actual reserved word with the same gcc case block missing fallthrough
warning capability.

All switch/case blocks now must end in one of:

	break;
	fallthrough;
	goto <label>;
	return [expression];
	continue;

fallthough is gcc's __attribute__((__fallthrough__)) which was introduced
in gcc version 7..

fallthrough devolves to an empty "do {} while (0)" if the compiler
version (any version less than gcc 7) does not support the attribute.
