Description

The preprocessing directives defined by the C99 specification are supported.

The #pragma directive is described as:

  • #pragma pp-tokensopt new-line

A #pragma directive where the preprocessing token OPENCL (used instead of STDC) does not immediately follow #pragma in the directive (prior to any macro replacement) causes the implementation to behave in an implementation-defined manner. The behavior might cause translation to fail or cause the translator or the resulting program to behave in a non-conforming manner. Any such #pragma that is not recognized by the implementation is ignored. If the preprocessing token OPENCL does immediately follow #pragma in the directive (prior to any macro replacement), then no macro replacement is performed on the directive, and the directive shall have one of the following forms whose meanings are described elsewhere:

// on-off-switch is one of ON, OFF, or DEFAULT
#pragma OPENCL FP_CONTRACT on-off-switch

#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION extensionname : behavior

#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION all : behavior

The following predefined macro names are available.

__FILE__

The presumed name of the current source file (a character string literal).

__LINE__

The presumed line number (within the current source file) of the current source line (an integer constant).

__OPENCL_VERSION__

For OpenCL devices with OpenCL version less than or equal to OpenCL 2.0, substitutes an integer value reflecting the OpenCL version supported by the device. This predefined macro is deprecated by OpenCL 2.1. For OpenCL devices with OpenCL version greater than OpenCL 2.0, it must be defined but may substitute any implementation-defined integer value greater than 200, reflecting OpenCL 2.0. [1]

CL_VERSION_1_0

Substitutes the integer 100 reflecting the OpenCL 1.0 version. Requires support for OpenCL C 1.1 or newer.

CL_VERSION_1_1

Substitutes the integer 110 reflecting the OpenCL 1.1 version. Requires support for OpenCL C 1.1 or newer.

CL_VERSION_1_2

Substitutes the integer 120 reflecting the OpenCL 1.2 version. Requires support for OpenCL C 1.2 or newer.

CL_VERSION_2_0

Substitutes the integer 200 reflecting the OpenCL 2.0 version. Requires support for OpenCL C 2.0 or newer.

CL_VERSION_3_0

Substitutes the integer 300 reflecting the OpenCL 3.0 version. Requires support for OpenCL C 3.0 or newer.

__OPENCL_C_VERSION__

Substitutes an integer reflecting the OpenCL C version specified by the -cl-std build option (see OpenCL Specification) to clBuildProgram or clCompileProgram. If the -cl-std build option is not specified, the highest OpenCL C 1.x language version supported by each device is used as the version of OpenCL C when compiling the program for each device. Requires support for OpenCL C 1.2 or newer.

__ROUNDING_MODE__

Used to determine the current rounding mode and is set to rte. Only affects the rounding mode of conversions to a float type. Deprecated by OpenCL C 1.1, along with the cl_khr_select_fprounding_mode extension.

__ENDIAN_LITTLE__

Used to determine if the OpenCL device is a little endian architecture or a big endian architecture (an integer constant of 1 if device is little endian and is undefined otherwise). Also refer to the value of the CL_DEVICE_ENDIAN_LITTLE device query.

__kernel_exec(X, typen) (and kernel_exec(X, typen))

is defined as:

__kernel __attribute__((work_group_size_hint(X, 1, 1))) \
    __attribute__((vec_type_hint(typen)))
__IMAGE_SUPPORT__

Used to determine if the OpenCL device supports images. This is an integer constant of 1 if images are supported and is undefined otherwise. Also refer to the value of the CL_DEVICE_IMAGE_SUPPORT device query and the __opencl_c_images feature.

__FAST_RELAXED_MATH__

Used to determine if the -cl-fast-relaxed-math optimization option is specified in build options given to clBuildProgram or clCompileProgram. This is an integer constant of 1 if the -cl-fast-relaxed-math build option is specified and is undefined otherwise.

The NULL macro expands to a null pointer constant. An integer constant expression with the value 0, or such an expression cast to type void * is called a null pointer constant. Requires support for OpenCL C 2.0 or newer.

The macro names defined by the C99 specification but not currently supported by OpenCL are reserved for future use.

The predefined identifier __func__ is available. Requires support for OpenCL C 1.2 or newer.

In OpenCL C 3.0 or newer there are a number of optional predefined macros indicating optional language features. Such macros are listed in the optional features in OpenCL C 3.0 table.
