This changes many WPT results from pass to fail, please explain why that’s for the best.

Does not seem to do the right thing if c is "." here, since we skip a character before starting to look for ".". Test case that would fail would be "x.xn--".

> Source/WTF/wtf/URLParser.cpp:2668
> +                state = State::NotAtSubdomainBeginOrInXNDashDash;

Ditto. Test case that would fail would be "xn.xn--".

> Source/WTF/wtf/URLParser.cpp:2673
> +            state = State::NotAtSubdomainBeginOrInXNDashDash;

Ditto. Test case that would fail would be "xn-.xn--".

[Alex Christensen]

Good catch!  Adding those tests.

More concise way to write this:

    case State::AtSubdomainBegin:
        if (c == 'x' || c == 'X')
            state = State::AfterX;
            continue;
        }
        break;
    case State::...
        ...
    }

    if (c == '.')
        state = State::AtSubdomainBegin;
    else
        state = State::NotAtSubdomainBeginOrInXNDashDash;

Code would be less repetitive.

[Alex Christensen]

I like it.

Will remove before landing.

I feel like it’s a problem to lose this comment. Could write a better one, but just removing it seems wrong.

Without the comment it’s not obvious why it’s OK to leave the hostname as-is when it’s super long, and the check just below is mysterious.

> Source/WTF/wtf/URLHelpers.cpp:-43
> -// For host names bigger than this, we won't do IDN encoding, which is almost certainly OK.

Again, losing this comment.

> +    if (hostName.length() > URLParser::hostnameBufferLength)

Mysterious code without a comment. Why is it safe to just do nothing for long strings.

I'll keep the comment here too.

I'll put the comment here.

... instead of moving it along with the definition of hostnameBufferLength to here.
