What happens to the program if I declare an infinite recursive function inline?

In theory or practice? In theory it could break the compiler, but every worthy compiler will do the inline limited form. It doesn’t pay to do more than 4 optimizations (this is implementation detail), after that it is better to make the call without the inline. In fact, it’s possible that you might consider doing nothing at all.

One infinite recursion results in undefined behavior, so it doesn’t matter much.
