--- Comment #4 from Gabriel Ravier <gabravier at gmail dot com> ---
I'd assume those are for older test cases: __attribute__((noipa)) makes more
sense (at least to me) considering it's made specifically to prevent
inter-procedural optimization (which __attribute__((noinline)) does not, afaik)
which is helpful for testing specific optimizations on specific functions and
seeing whether the optimizations make those functions non-functional without
potentially having problems with inter-procedural optimization doing stuff like
constant-propagation or anything that could interfere with the proper testing
of a specific optimization.
