@ignore tag is a regular tag from jtreg, excerpt from jtreg spec[1]:

> Will these tests run during nightly testing or not?
the tests marked by this tag won't be run during all testing including 
nightly, PIT, promotion. As they do now, since there's open bugs w/ 
'test-exclude' label; namely JDK-8033553, JDK-8032498, JDK-7117034, 
JDK-7154567.

Fixing these bugs is our (SQE team) high priority task, but we need to 
add @ignore tag due to upcoming changes in  exclusion mechanism.

> How we know when the tag should be removed?
the tag should be removed by the fix for the bug (usually it's a 
testbug) mentioned after the tag, e.g. @ignore should be removed from 
compiler/5091921/Test7005594.java by the fix for JDK-7117034:
test/compiler/5091921/Test7005594.java.html
>   28  * @ignore 7117034
