Yarr abandons a search after 100,000,000 steps, or when its backtracking
state does not fit in Options::maxRegExpStackSize or on the stack.
Interpreter::interpret() and the limit exit of JIT code reported that as no
match. test(), exec(), match(), search(), replace() and split() then answered
false, null, -1 or the unchanged string for input that matches, for example
/(?:a|aa)+b|c/.test("a".repeat(35) + "c").
- Yarr::interpret() returns the JSRegExpResult and leaves the offsets in
output. Code that reads the old unsigned result does not compile. The limit
exit of JIT code returns ErrorHitLimit.
- RegExp::matchInlineOnce throws through RegExp::throwMatchAbandoned: the
stack overflow RangeError for ErrorNoMemory, and "Regular expression
backtracking limit exceeded" for ErrorHitLimit. The compare after the JIT
call tests "below -1", which is JITCodeFailure or an abandoned search.
- RegExp::matchConcurrently returns false for an abandoned search, so DFG
strength reduction does not fold it into a failed match.
- Yarr::RegularExpression::match() returns Match, NoMatch or Abandoned. The
int form reports an abandoned search as -1, and is declared only without
USE(BUN_JSC_ADDITIONS).
- Options::regExpMatchLimit replaces the matchLimit constant.
- The ParseError throw moves out of line. The lambda that held it cost every
match the stores that build its closure.
Reading RegExp.lastMatch runs the last search again. When that run was
abandoned, RegExpCachedResult::lastResult() stored a null array and the getter
crashed. It now throws.
Three upstream tests expected the failed match: see A10 in
JSTests/BUN-TEST-DIFFERENCES.md.

The new push addresses both points from the earlier review: matchConcurrently now bails (returns false) on any result below -1 so the DFG no longer folds an abandoned search to a no-match, and findMagicComment in ContentSearchUtilities.cpp now tests interpret() against JSRegExpResult::Match.
Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the interpreter-vs-JIT step-count divergence (the interpreter charges one step per matchDisjunction entry, the JIT one per group iteration) — it is documented as intentional in the new regExpMatchLimit help text, so a given input can stop in one engine and finish in the other by design; and the searchRev change to return -1 on an abandoned search, whose only callers are WebCore files not compiled in the Bun JSCOnly build and which still has the old int match(StringView, unsigned, int*) overload outside USE(BUN_JSC_ADDITIONS).
Extended reasoning...
The change replaces the YARR engines' silent no-match on a hit resource limit with a propagated JSRegExpResult that RegExp::matchInline turns into a RangeError or StackOverflowError on the VM thread, adds the regExpMatchLimit option, and converts Yarr::RegularExpression::match to a tri-state MatchStatus that the inspector and WebCore callers consume. No injection, auth, or data-exposure surface is touched; the sensitive surface is correctness of regex matching under adversarial input sizes and tier parity between LLInt, DFG-folded, JIT and interpreter paths. The second push resolved the two issues raised last round, but five new findings (budget never re-armed per start position, option value 0 wrapping, error-class mapping, build break of the TestWebKitAPI target, inspector dropping lines) are posted inline, so this is a findings-present ruled-out note rather than an approval.
Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.

…Core builds with MatchStatus Both RegExp engines count the steps of a search down to zero, so a limit of 0 wrapped around to 2^32 steps. Options::notifyOptionsChanged() takes 0 as 1: the first step abandons the search. Tools/TestWebKitAPI/Tests/JavaScriptCore/RegularExpression.cpp called the int form of Yarr::RegularExpression::match(), which Bun's configuration no longer declares. It now goes through the MatchStatus form, so the TestJavaScriptCore target builds again.
RegExpCachedResult::lastResult() runs the last search again to build the array that RegExp.lastMatch, RegExp.$1 to $9 and RegExp.lastParen read. createRegExpMatchesArray() returns no array when that run does not match, and lastResult() stored it: getBackref() and getLastParen() then read through a null pointer. The two runs can differ. test() runs match-only code. The second run keeps the subpatterns, and in JIT code that makes each context of a repeating group larger, so a search that fits the machine stack the first time can need the interpreter the second time and run out of its pool or its steps there. lastResult() now throws a RangeError when the second run has no match, so the getters never see a missing array, whatever the second run reports.
regexp-abandoned-match-throws-in-every-tier.js called each RegExp method on a constant subject whose search is always abandoned. A call that has never returned has no value profile, so the DFG leaves compiled code before it: every throw the test saw came from a lower tier, and the test passed with or without the change to RegExp::matchConcurrently(). Two tests replace it. regexp-abandoned-match-throws-in-compiled-code.js compiles each function on a subject that matches and then passes one whose search is abandoned. The DFG and FTL operations run that search, every call throws, and the function is not compiled again. regexp-abandoned-match-is-not-folded.js uses the shapes where the DFG does reach a constant search: the result is not used, or the call is a tail call. With matchConcurrently() reporting an abandoned search as a miss, the first function returns after the DFG has compiled it.
…ets a result code RegExp::match() throws only for a search that is abandoned, which few tests run, so exception check validation did not see a caller that has no check after it. Both out-of-line overloads now declare a throw scope and release it: with validation on, every caller has to check after every search. testRegExp checks too. RegExp::matchAbandoned() returned the result code to a VM thread caller that passed no global object. No caller does that, and the readers on the VM thread compare with -1 only. The code now goes to the compiler thread alone, decided at compile time. splitsSurrogatePair() takes an unsigned offset again. A result code in MatchResult::start is above every string length as 32 bits too, and the wider type cost instructions on each search of a unicode RegExp.

I reviewed the pushes since my last pass and didn't find any bugs; because this changes observable RegExp semantics across the Yarr JIT, the interpreter and the DFG folding path, a human look would still be worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
- The follow-up commits:
matchConcurrentlynow bails on any code below -1,regExpMatchLimitof 0 is clamped to 1 inOptions::notifyOptionsChanged, the TestWebKitAPI caller andfindMagicCommentuse the new return types, and no other in-tree caller of the removedint match()overload remains underUSE(BUN_JSC_ADDITIONS). - The new throw scopes in
RegExp::match: bothperformMatchcallers inRegExpGlobalDataInlines.hand thecreateRegExpMatchesArraypath already check for an exception right after the match, andRegExpCachedResult::lastResultnow throws on a null rerun instead of dereferencing it. - Remaining judgement calls left as-is by design (whole-search step budget, stack-overflow error for
ErrorNoMemory, inspector sites foldingAbandonedinto no-match) are documented in the description and are what a human should weigh.
Extended reasoning...
The change makes an abandoned Yarr search throw a RangeError instead of reporting no match, threading a JSRegExpResult through Yarr::interpret, the JIT's limit exit, RegExp::matchInlineOnce, Yarr::RegularExpression and its inspector callers, plus a new regExpMatchLimit option and nine new or updated tests. It touches no auth, injection or data-exposure surface, but it does alter user-visible behaviour (some long non-matching inputs now throw where they returned false) and the compiler-thread folding contract. The four commits since the last review address every inline finding posted earlier, and this run's bug hunt ran dry with no new findings. Not approved outright because the diff is large, spans the JIT and interpreter, and contains deliberate design trade-offs a maintainer should weigh.

The request
@Jarred-Sumner asked for this in the team chat. In his words:
The shape he gave:
ErrorHitLimitandErrorNoMemorycome out ofInterpreter::interpret()andgenerateJITFailReturn()as distinct codes, bothRegExp::matchInlineoverloads throw aRangeErrorwhen there is a global object, and the limit can be a JSC option so that tests reach it cheaply.Where this goes past that shape
RegExp::matchConcurrentlyreturns false for an abandoned search. The request said "no-match on the compiler thread, as today". With that, the DFG folds such a search intofalse,nullor-1when it compiles the function, and the call stops throwing.regexp-abandoned-match-is-not-folded.jsfails without this: its first function returns from its 166th call.Yarr::interpret()returns the typed result, andYarr::RegularExpression::match()returns aMatchStatus. Theintform stays for the WebCore files that Bun does not build, under!USE(BUN_JSC_ADDITIONS). Codes in the oldunsignedcompile in every reader that compares withoffsetNoMatchonly.RegExpCachedResult::lastResultthrows when its second run has no match (its own commit, 4491b75). With the throw inmatchInlineOncethat state is not reachable. The guard keeps the crash away if the throw is ever reduced, for example to steps only.RegExp::matchoverloads declare a throw scope and release it. A search throws only when it is abandoned, so exception check validation did not see a caller without a check. Now it requires the check after every search. Release code is the same.--regExpMatchLimit=0is taken as 1. Both engines count down to zero, so 0 would wrap around to 2^32 steps.JSTests/BUN-TEST-DIFFERENCES.md, below).The messages, for review word by word

A search that is abandoned cannot tell "no match" from a match it did not reach. Main reports "no match" for both. That is wrong for the second and right, by luck, for the first.
