C Specification
To enqueue a command to fill a buffer object with a pattern of a given pattern size, call the function
// Provided by CL_VERSION_1_2
cl_int clEnqueueFillBuffer(
cl_command_queue command_queue,
cl_mem buffer,
const void* pattern,
size_t pattern_size,
size_t offset,
size_t size,
cl_uint num_events_in_wait_list,
const cl_event* event_wait_list,
cl_event* event);
| clEnqueueFillBuffer is missing before version 1.2. |
Parameters
-
command_queue refers to the host command-queue in which the fill command will be queued. The OpenCL context associated with command_queue and buffer must be the same.
-
buffer is a valid buffer object.
-
pattern is a pointer to the data pattern of size pattern_size in bytes. pattern will be used to fill a region in buffer starting at offset and is size bytes in size. The data pattern must be a scalar or vector integer or floating-point data type supported by OpenCL as described in Shared Application Scalar Data Types and Supported Application Vector Data Types. For example, if buffer is to be filled with a pattern of
float4values, then pattern will be a pointer to acl_float4value and pattern_size will besizeof(cl_float4). The maximum value of pattern_size is the size of the largest integer or floating-point vector data type supported by the OpenCL device. The memory associated with pattern can be reused or freed after the function returns. -
offset is the location in bytes of the region being filled in buffer and must be a multiple of pattern_size.
-
size is the size in bytes of region being filled in buffer and must be a multiple of pattern_size.
-
event_wait_list and num_events_in_wait_list specify events that need to complete before this particular command can be executed. If event_wait_list is
NULL, then this particular command does not wait on any event to complete. If event_wait_list isNULL, num_events_in_wait_list must be 0. If event_wait_list is notNULL, the list of events pointed to by event_wait_list must be valid and num_events_in_wait_list must be greater than 0. The events specified in event_wait_list act as synchronization points. The context associated with events in event_wait_list and command_queue must be the same. The memory associated with event_wait_list can be reused or freed after the function returns. -
event returns an event object that identifies this command and can be used to query or queue a wait for this command to complete. If event is
NULLor the enqueue is unsuccessful, no event will be created and therefore it will not be possible to query the status of this command or to wait for this command to complete. If event_wait_list and event are notNULL, event must not refer to an element of the event_wait_list array.
Description
The usage information which indicates whether the memory object can be read
or written by a kernel and/or the host and is given by the cl_mem_
argument value specified when buffer is created is ignored by
clEnqueueFillBuffer.
clEnqueueFillBuffer returns CL_SUCCESS if the function is executed
successfully.
Otherwise, it returns one of the following errors:
-
CL_INVALID_if command_queue is not a valid host command-queue.COMMAND_ QUEUE -
CL_INVALID_if the context associated with command_queue and buffer are not the same or if the context associated with command_queue and events in event_wait_list are not the same.CONTEXT -
CL_INVALID_if buffer is not a valid buffer object.MEM_ OBJECT -
CL_INVALID_if offset or offset + size require accessing elements outside the buffer buffer object respectively.VALUE -
CL_INVALID_if pattern isVALUE NULLor if pattern_size is 0 or if pattern_size is not one of { 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 }. -
CL_INVALID_if offset and size are not a multiple of pattern_size.VALUE -
CL_INVALID_if event_wait_list isEVENT_ WAIT_ LIST NULLand num_events_in_wait_list > 0, or event_wait_list is notNULLand num_events_in_wait_list is 0, or if event objects in event_wait_list are not valid events. -
CL_MISALIGNED_if buffer is a sub-buffer object and offset specified when the sub-buffer object is created is not aligned toSUB_ BUFFER_ OFFSET CL_DEVICE_value for device associated with queue. This error code is missing before version 1.1.MEM_ BASE_ ADDR_ ALIGN -
CL_MEM_if there is a failure to allocate memory for data store associated with buffer.OBJECT_ ALLOCATION_ FAILURE -
CL_OUT_if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL implementation on the device.OF_ RESOURCES -
CL_OUT_if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL implementation on the host.OF_ HOST_ MEMORY -
CL_INVALID_if buffer was created withOPERATION CL_MEM_.IMMUTABLE_ EXT
