man clGetMemObjectInfo (3): Get information that is common to all memory objects (buffer and image objects).

cl_int clGetMemObjectInfo(cl_mem memobj, cl_mem_info param_name, size_t param_value_size, void **param_value*, size_t **param_value_size_ret*);

PARAMETERS

memobj

: Specifies the memory object being queried.

param_name

Specifies the information to query. The list of supported param_name types and the information returned in param_value by clGetMemObjectInfo is described in the table below.

cl_mem_info	Return Type	Info. returned in param_value
CL_MEM_TYPE	cl_mem_object_type	Returns one of the following values: CL_MEM_OBJECT_BUFFER if memobj is created with clCreateBuffer(3clc) or clCreateSubBuffer(3clc). cl_image_desc.image_type argument value if memobj is created with clCreateImage(3clc).
CL_MEM_FLAGS	cl_mem_flags	Returns the flags argument value specified when memobj is created with clCreateBuffer(3clc), clCreateSubBuffer(3clc), or clCreateImage(3clc). If memobj is a sub-buffer the memory access qualifiers inherited from parent buffer is also returned
CL_MEM_SIZE	size_t	Return actual size of the data store associated with memobj in bytes.
CL_MEM_HOST_PTR	void *	If memobj is created with clCreateBuffer(3clc) or clCreateImage(3clc) and CL_MEM_USE_HOST_PTR is specified in mem_flags, return the host_ptr argument value specified when memobj is created. Otherwise a NULL value is returned. If memobj is created with clCreateSubBuffer(3clc), return the host_ptr + origin value specified when memobj is created. host_ptr is the argument value specified to clCreateBuffer(3clc) and CL_MEM_USE_HOST_PTR is specified in mem_flags for memory object from which memobj is created. Otherwise a NULL value is returned.
CL_MEM_MAP_COUNT	cl_uint	Map count. The map count returned should be considered immediately stale. It is unsuitable for general use in applications. This feature is provided for debugging.
CL_MEM_REFERENCE_COUNT	cl_uint	Return memobj reference count. The reference count returned should be considered immediately stale. It is unsuitable for general use in applications. This feature is provided for identifying memory leaks.
CL_MEM_CONTEXT	cl_context	Return context specified when memory object is created. If memobj is created using clCreateSubBuffer(3clc), the context associated with the memory object specified as the buffer argument to clCreateSubBuffer(3clc) is returned.
CL_MEM_ASSOCIATED_- MEMOBJECT	cl_mem	Return memory object from which memobj is created. This returns the memory object specified as buffer argument to clCreateSubBuffer(3clc). Otherwise a NULL value is returned.
CL_MEM_OFFSET	size_t	Return offset if memobj is a sub-buffer object created using clCreateSubBuffer(3clc). This returns 0 if memobj is not a subbuffer object.
CL_MEM_D3D10_RESOURCE_KHR	ID3D10Resource *	The property being queried (if the cl_khr_d3d10_sharing(3clc) extension is enabled). If memobj was created using clCreateFromD3D10BufferKHR(3clc), clCreateFromD3D10Texture2DKHR(3clc), or clCreateFromD3D10Texture3DKHR(3clc), returns the resource argument specified when memobj was created.
CL_MEM_DX9_MEDIA_- ADAPTER_TYPE_KHR	cl_dx9_media_- adapter_type_khr	Returns the cl_dx9_media_adapter_type_khr argument value specified when memobj is created using clCreateFromDX9MediaSurfaceKHR(3clc) (If the cl_khr_dx9_media_sharing(3clc) extension is supported)
CL_MEM_DX9_MEDIA_- SURFACE_INFO_KHR	cl_dx9_- surface_info_khr	Returns the cl_dx9_surface_info_khr argument value specified when memobj is created using clCreateFromDX9MediaSurfaceKHR(3clc) (If the cl_khr_dx9_media_sharing(3clc) extension is supported)
CL_MEM_D3D11_RESOURCE_KHR	ID3D11Resource *	If the cl_khr_d3d11_sharing extension is supported, If memobj was created using clCreateFromD3D11BufferKHR(3clc), clCreateFromD3D11Texture2DKHR(3clc), or clCreateFromD3D11Texture3DKHR(3clc), returns the resource argument specified when memobj was created.

param_value

: A pointer to memory where the appropriate result being queried is returned. If param_value is NULL, it is ignored.

param_value_size

: Used to specify the size in bytes of memory pointed to by param_value. This size must be ≥ size of return type as described in the table above.

param_value_size_ret

: Returns the actual size in bytes of data being queried by param_value. If param_value_size_ret is NULL, it is ignored.

ERRORS

Returns CL_SUCCESS if the function is executed successfully. Otherwise, it returns one of the following errors:

: • CL_INVALID_VALUE if param_name is not valid, or if size in bytes specified by param_value_size is < the size of return type as described in the table above and param_value is not NULL.

: • CL_INVALID_MEM_OBJECT if memobj is a not a valid memory object.

: • CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL implementation on the device.

: • CL_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL implementation on the host.

: • CL_INVALID_D3D10_RESOURCE_KHR If the cl_khr_d3d10_sharing(3clc) extension is enabled and if param_name is CL_MEM_D3D10_RESOURCE_KHR and memobj was not created by the function clCreateFromD3D10BufferKHR(3clc), clCreateFromD3D10Texture2DKHR(3clc), or clCreateFromD3D10Texture3DKHR(3clc).

: • CL_INVALID_DX9_MEDIA_SURFACE_KHR if param_name is CL_MEM_DX9_MEDIA_SURFACE_INFO_KHR and memobj was not created by the function clCreateFromDX9MediaSurfaceKHR(3clc) from a Direct3D9 surface. (If the cl_khr_dx9_media_sharing(3clc) extension is supported)

: • CL_INVALID_D3D11_RESOURCE_KHR If the cl_khr_d3d11_sharing extension is supported, if param_name is CL_MEM_D3D11_RESOURCE_KHR and memobj was not created by the function clCreateFromD3D11BufferKHR(3clc), clCreateFromD3D11Texture2DKHR(3clc), or clCreateFromD3D11Texture3DKHR(3clc)."
