 ``noimplicitfloat``
     Disallows implicit floating-point code. This inhibits optimizations that
-    use floating-point code and floating-point/SIMD/vector registers for
-    operations that are not nominally floating-point. LLVM instructions that
-    perform floating-point operations or require access to floating-point
-    registers may still cause floating-point code to be generated.

 ``noinline``
     This attribute indicates that the inliner should never inline this
     function in any situation. This attribute may not be used together
