It was my impression that if everything infers, invoke shouldn't carry any performance penalty, but I noticed something with this little example:

julia> f(x::Int, y) = x + y
f (generic function with 1 method)

julia> f(x, y::Int) = x * y
f (generic function with 2 methods)

julia> f(x::Int, y::Int) = invoke(f, Tuple{Int, Any}, x, y)
f (generic function with 3 methods)

julia> @code_typed f(1, 1)
CodeInfo(
1%1 = Main.invoke(Main.f, Tuple{Int64,Any}, x, y)::Int64
└──      return %1
) => Int64

that the llvm code is not a simple integer addition:

julia> @code_llvm f(1, 1)
;  @ REPL[3]:1 within `f'

Not sure what's going on here or if it's expected, so I figured I'd open an issue.

It worked in 1.1

I tested on 1.3.1, 1.4.0-rc1 and 1.4.0-r and got the same result for each of them.

Works in 1.2 as well.

When we added the check to prevent inlining through ambiguous methods,
we failed exclude this check for calls to `invoke` (which skip ambiguous
methods, since the method is explicitly selected). Fixes #34900.
