performance.mark() throws error 'The "name" argument must be specified' #47097
Description
Version
19.7.0
Platform
Darwin midnight.local 22.2.0 Darwin Kernel Version 22.2.0: Fri Nov 11 02:06:26 PST 2022; root:xnu-8792.61.2~4/RELEASE_ARM64_T8112 arm64
Subsystem
perf_hooks
What steps will reproduce the bug?
node -e "require('perf_hooks').performance.mark()"How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?
This works fine in Node <19 but throws an error in Node 19.
What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?
name is marked as an optional parameter in the docs. I expect no error when calling mark() without a name parameter.
What do you see instead?
❯ node -e "require('perf_hooks').performance.mark()"
node:internal/perf/performance:125
throw new ERR_MISSING_ARGS('name');

Thanks for reporting the issue!
This is a document inconsistency with the web spec. The spec defines the first parameter
nameas a required argument: https://www.w3.org/TR/user-timing/#ref-for-dom-performance-mark-1.Since #44483 is tagged as semver-major, I think the documents should be fixed respectively.
