I think gcc doesn't complain, but clang does:
$ cat ttt.c
static inline void ret(void)
{
return;
}
int main(void)
{
return 0;
}
$ gcc ttt.c -Werror -Wunused-function
$ clang ttt.c -Werror -Wunused-function
ttt.c:1:20: error: unused function 'ret' [-Werror,-Wunused-function]
1 | static inline void ret(void)
| ^~~
1 error generated.

Yes, it is 'static inline'.
