it's documented see http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/elisp/html_node/Inline-Functions.html
in short it's a function which is not called but the body is copied in
place ("inline") like a macro.
Like this the overhead of a function call is safed with the
disadvantage of expanded code size.
Perl has a limited support for inline functions.
