Assert execution of the fulfilled for await body.
After testForAwait([1]), this test checks foo(2) but not the loop-body call foo(1). A profiler regression that misses the fulfilled loop body can therefore pass. Assert that foo(1) has an execution count of 1. (github.com)

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the m_isInCaseTest scoping: the SetForScope covers only the clause-test loop on the non-jump-table path, clause bodies are emitted after it, and the jump-table path only ever has literal constants as tests, so no ?., logical assignment or default value can appear there. The after-yield op in SourceElements::emitBytecode was also checked for double counting with a statement that emits its own after-op (if, loops, return, try): emitProfileControlFlowAfterSlow records the statement pointer, so the second op is skipped.
Extended reasoning...
The change extends op_profile_control_flow emission in the bytecode generator and parser for optional chains, logical assignment, default values and post-yield/await text, all behind shouldEmitControlFlowProfilerHooks(), with no runtime, JIT or security-sensitive surface touched. Two inline findings (export-wrapped function declarations after a top-level await, and the chain end offset for a parenthesised chain absorbed by ??) are posted separately; the case-test flag scoping and the yield-point double-count guard were examined from the diff and ruled out.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Beyond the inline nit, I checked the new commit for the parenthesised-chain case: makeCoalesceNode (Source/JavaScriptCore/parser/ASTBuilder.h:1421) now captures the inner expression's end offset before overwriting it, and both CoalesceNode emit paths push that value, so (a?.b) ?? c ends the skipped block at the chain rather than at the ). Also checked that the -1 default for m_optionalChainEndOffset is only read when m_hasAbsorbedOptionalChain is set.
Extended reasoning...
The latest push changes the CoalesceNode constructor, Nodes.h field, ASTBuilder.h and the two pushOptionalChainTarget call sites in NodesCodegen.cpp, plus a new test case in JSTests/controlFlowProfiler/optional-chain.js; the rest of the diff (emitOptionalCheck/emitShortCircuitAssignment/default-value profile ops, yield-point tracking in SourceElements::emitBytecode, case-test suppression, parser end-offset bookkeeping) is unchanged from the prior reviewed version. No security-sensitive surface is touched. The change is a non-trivial bytecode generator and parser modification across several node types, and one earlier inline thread on export declarations after a top-level await has no corresponding code change, so a human look remains worthwhile rather than approval.
…ver often it is asked, and the comments on the basic blocks of skipped code say why
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I re-reviewed the latest push (d1e9821) and did not find any bugs; since this changes how the bytecode generator and parser compute basic-block text ranges across many node kinds, a human look from someone who knows the control flow profiler would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- The dedup moved into emitProfileControlFlowAfterSlow: checked that a statement that already emitted its own after-op (return/if/loop/try/block) and then triggers the yield-point path in SourceElements::emitBytecode gets exactly one op, and that the early return before the func-decl skip cannot drop a needed op.
- The new emitProfileControlFlow call sites against the RELEASE_ASSERT(textOffset < textEndOffset): base end offsets are set before
?.and chain ends at endOfChain in Parser.cpp, optional-call starts come from divot - 2 which matches the isOptionalCall check at Parser.cpp:5674, and default/right-side starts are one before an expression that always follows=. - Parser end-offset changes with the profiler off: the only non-profiler reader is the tagged-template constant key in emitGetTemplateObject, and the new setEndOffset calls are deterministic per parse so the key stays stable across reparses.
Extended reasoning...
The change touches the JSC parser (Parser.cpp, ASTBuilder.h, Nodes.h, NodeConstructors.h) and bytecode generator (BytecodeGenerator.cpp/.h, NodesCodegen.cpp) to emit additional op_profile_control_flow instructions for optional chains, logical assignments, default values, and statements after yield/await, plus six new controlFlowProfiler tests; it touches no security-sensitive surface. Every new bytecode emission is behind shouldEmitControlFlowProfilerHooks(), and the parser-side end-offset changes only feed profiler ranges and the tagged-template constant key. The latest commit addressed earlier inline feedback (the parenthesised-chain end offset and the duplicate after-op) and the bug hunt ran dry, but the change is 769 lines across engine-core files covered by CODEOWNERS and relies on subtle text-offset identity semantics, so it does not meet the bar for an automated approve.
…await, reads as not run (#46183) `bun test --coverage` said that code ran when it was skipped, or when the function was left at a `yield` or an `await` and never came back. The fix is in JavaScriptCore, oven-sh/WebKit#851. This has the version and the tests. ## Before and after The number is how often the line ran. ``` main here 2 2 | function assign(o) { 2 2 | o.a ||= 2 1 | one(); // o.a was set in one of the two calls 2 2 | o.b &&= 2 0 | one(); // o.b never was - | } 1 1 | async function stuck() { 1 1 | before(); 1 1 | await new Promise(() => {}); 1 0 | after(); - | } ``` The report contradicted itself: `one()` had a count on its line in a file where `function one` had none. ## What changes Fewer lines read as run, so `% Lines`, `LH` and the list of uncovered lines move, and with them the result of a `coverageThreshold`. **A bug, now right** | Case | main | this PR | | --- | --- | --- | | A line with only what is after a `?.` whose base is null or undefined | ran | did not run | | A line with only the right side of a `\|\|=`, `&&=` or `??=` that does not assign | ran | did not run | | A line with only a default value, of a parameter or in a pattern, that is not used | ran | did not run | | Any of the three, used some of the times | the count of the function | its own count | | The lines after a statement with a `yield`, a `yield*` or an `await`, in a function or at the top level of a module, that is not resumed, or is resumed with `return()`, `throw()` or a rejection | ran | did not run | | The same, resumed some of the times | the number of calls | the number of times they were reached | | `Profiler.takePreciseCoverage` of `node:inspector` with `detailed: true`, for all of the above | no range | a range with its count. After a `yield` or an `await` it is the range Node has. After `?.` it is `?.a(one())` where Node has `?.a`. Node has none for a default value or a logical assignment | **A bug, still a bug in another way** | Case | main | this PR | | --- | --- | --- | | A line with what is left of a statement after an `await` that is not resumed, when it is in one of the three: the second of the lines `const { a = await p +`, `await q`, `} = o` | ran, with the count of the function | ran, with the count of the default value | **Not a bug before, a bug now:** none. **Right before and after, but different** | Case | main | this PR | | --- | --- | --- | | The line of a loop with one of the three in its head | the times the loop was entered | the times that part ran, if that is more. `while (node?.next) {` and a list of three: 3, as `while (node && node.next) {` has on main. `for (const { v = one() } of list) {` and two items without `v`: 2 | | A line with `import "a"`, `export * from "a"` or `export { b }` after an `await` at the top level of a module that is not resumed | ran | did not run, as after `throw 1;` on main | As on main: what is left of the same statement after an `await` that is not resumed (`g()` in `f(await p, g())`), and `case a?.b: f();` that does not match reads as not run. ## With coverage off The bytecode is the same, and the parser and the bytecode generator do a little more for each function. oven-sh/WebKit#851 has what. | Coverage off, instructions in user space | `main` | Here | | A copy of the binary of `main` | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `require("typescript")`, 9.1 MB | 2,071,368,108 | 2,071,336,271 | -0.002% | -0.002% | | 8 MB of nothing else: 30,000 functions of default values, chains and logical assignments, 6,000 generators and async functions, each run once | 10,479,416,131 | 10,487,256,839 | +0.075% | -0.004% | Release builds of Bun from CI, this PR at 8a47dce and its merge base, which differ in WebKit and in tests. The least of 11 runs, taken in turns, with `useJIT=0` and `useConcurrentGC=0`: the runs of one binary are then 0.01% to 0.09% apart. With the JIT on, the copy is 2.3% from the binary it is a copy of on the second file, and this is in that range. ## Tests - `generators.ts`, which had three functions of one statement, and `skipped.ts` in `source-positions-corpus.ts`, in the six variants of every program there. A line that is only `at();` is also checked against the number of calls the program counted itself. - `coverage.test.ts`: the top level of a module, with `export const`, `export default` and `export { }` around the `await`s. The corpus cannot have it, one of its bundles is CommonJS. - `inspector-profiler.test.ts`: the text and the count of each range of six functions. - All four fail with the WebKit that main has. Not in the PR: the same programs under Bun, Node (`NODE_V8_COVERAGE`) and Istanbul, line by line, main against this. Of 793 lines in 32 programs of mine 7 change, from 1 to 0. Two are after a `yield` that is not resumed, and are 0 on Node and Istanbul. Two are after a `?.` whose base is null, and are 0 on Node. Three are the right sides of a `||=`, a `&&=` and a `??=` that do not assign: Node says they ran, V8 has no counter there. Of 9,589 lines in 603 programs of `JSTests/es6` none changes.
main moved WEBKIT_VERSION to d0b16ad0 (oven-sh/WebKit#851). That commit is merged into oven-sh/WebKit#860 as bc7aebee, so the pin is that head's preview build.

Nothing. Bun turns the profiler on and reads its basic blocks, as Web Inspector does.
Why does upstream not have the issue?
It does. The profiler is from 2014 (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137785). Each of these came later and did not get a profiling point: default values in 2015 (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=142679, https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38409), optional chaining in 2019 (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200199), logical assignment in 2020 (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209716). Web Inspector dims text that has not run, where an operand that is not dimmed is hard to see. Bun prints a count for every line and fails a build on a threshold.
