1. Extensions Overview

Extensions are optional features which may be supported by OpenCL implementations. Extensions are not required to be supported by a conformant OpenCL implementation, but are expected to be widely available, and in some cases may define functionality that is likely to be required in a future revision of the OpenCL specification.

In the past, this document contained full specification language for Khronos-approved khr extensions, described in terms of changes to the core OpenCL Specification. This extension language has now been integrated into the OpenCL 3.0 Specification, and can be read in context there.

The remaining parts of this document describe general issues in using extensions, such as API Naming Conventions for Optional Extensions; OpenCL C Compiler Directives for Optional Extensions; and Getting OpenCL API Extension Function Pointers.

In addition, there is a section on Extensions to the OpenCL SPIR-V Environment.

Finally, the Quick Reference appendix summarizes khr extensions and links to them in the OpenCL API Specification. In some cases, extensions are mostly or entirely to the OpenCL C language rather than to the OpenCL API. Such extensions can be reached by following the links in the API Specification extension appendices.

1.1. Naming Convention for Optional Extensions

OpenCL extensions approved by the OpenCL working group use the following naming convention:

A unique name string of the form "cl_khr_<name>" is associated with each extension. If the extension is supported by an implementation, this string will be present in the implementation’s CL_PLATFORM_EXTENSIONS string or CL_DEVICE_EXTENSIONS string.
All API functions defined by the extension will have names of the form cl<function_name>KHR.
All enumerants defined by the extension will have names of the form CL_<enum_name>_KHR.

Functions and enumerants defined by extensions that are promoted to core features will have their KHR affix removed. OpenCL implementations of such later revisions must also export the name strings of promoted extensions in the CL_PLATFORM_EXTENSIONS or CL_DEVICE_EXTENSIONS string, and support the KHR-affixed versions of functions and enumerants as a transition aid.

Vendor extensions are strongly encouraged to follow a similar naming convention:

A unique name string of the form "cl_<vendor_name>_<name>" is associated with each extension. If the extension is supported by an implementation, this string will be present in the implementation’s CL_PLATFORM_EXTENSIONS string or CL_DEVICE_EXTENSIONS string.
All API functions defined by the vendor extension will have names of the form cl<function_name><vendor_name>.
All enumerants defined by the vendor extension will have names of the form CL_<enum_name>_<vendor_name>.

1.2. Compiler Directives for Optional Extensions

The #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION directive controls the behavior of the OpenCL compiler with respect to extensions. The #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION directive is defined as:

#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION <extension_name> : <behavior>
#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION all : <behavior>

where extension_name is the name of the extension. The extension_name will have names of the form cl_khr_<name> for an extension approved by the OpenCL working group and will have names of the form cl_<vendor_name>_<name> for vendor extensions. The token all means that the behavior applies to all extensions supported by the compiler. The behavior can be set to one of the following values given by the table below.

behavior Description

behavior	Description
enable	Behave as specified by the extension extension_name. Report an error on the `#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION` if the extension_name is not supported, or if all is specified.
disable	Behave (including issuing errors and warnings) as if the extension extension_name is not part of the language definition. If all is specified, then behavior must revert back to that of the non-extended core version of the language being compiled to. Warn on the `#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION` if the extension extension_name is not supported.

enable

Behave as specified by the extension extension_name.

Report an error on the #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION if the extension_name is not supported, or if all is specified.

disable

Behave (including issuing errors and warnings) as if the extension extension_name is not part of the language definition.

If all is specified, then behavior must revert back to that of the non-extended core version of the language being compiled to.

Warn on the #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION if the extension extension_name is not supported.

The #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION directive is a simple, low-level mechanism to set the behavior for each extension. It does not define policies such as which combinations are appropriate; those must be defined elsewhere. The order of directives matter in setting the behavior for each extension. Directives that occur later override those seen earlier. The all variant sets the behavior for all extensions, overriding all previously issued extension directives, but only if the behavior is set to disable.

The initial state of the compiler is as if the directive

#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION all : disable

was issued, telling the compiler that all error and warning reporting must be done according to this specification, ignoring any extensions.

Every extension which affects the OpenCL language semantics, syntax or adds built-in functions to the language must create a preprocessor #define that matches the extension name string. This #define would be available in the language if and only if the extension is supported on a given implementation.

Example:

An extension which adds the extension string "cl_khr_3d_image_writes" should also add a preprocessor #define called cl_khr_3d_image_writes. A kernel can now use this preprocessor #define to do something like:

#ifdef cl_khr_3d_image_writes
    // do something using the extension
#else
    // do something else or #error!
#endif

1.3. Getting OpenCL API Extension Function Pointers

The function

void* clGetExtensionFunctionAddressForPlatform(cl_platform_id platform,
                                               const char *funcname)

returns the address of the extension function named by funcname for a given platform The pointer returned should be cast to a function pointer type matching the extension function’s definition defined in the appropriate extension specification and header file. A return value of NULL indicates that the specified function does not exist for the implementation or platform is not a valid platform. A non-NULL return value for clGetExtensionFunctionAddressForPlatform does not guarantee that an extension function is actually supported by the platform. The application must also make a corresponding query using clGetPlatformInfo(platform, CL_PLATFORM_EXTENSIONS, …) or clGetDeviceInfo(device, CL_DEVICE_EXTENSIONS, …) to determine if an extension is supported by the OpenCL implementation.

Since there is no way to qualify the query with a device, the function pointer returned must work for all implementations of that extension on different devices for a platform. The behavior of calling a device extension function on a device not supporting that extension is undefined.

clGetExtensionFunctionAddressForPlatform may not be be used to query for core (non-extension) functions in OpenCL. For extension functions that may be queried using clGetExtensionFunctionAddressForPlatform, implementations may also choose to export those functions statically from the object libraries implementing those functions, however, portable applications cannot rely on this behavior.

Function pointer typedefs must be declared for all extensions that add API entrypoints. These typedefs are a required part of the extension interface, to be provided in an appropriate header (such as cl_ext.h if the extension is an OpenCL extension, or cl_gl_ext.h if the extension is an OpenCL / OpenGL sharing extension).

The following convention must be followed for all extensions affecting the host API:

#ifndef extension_name
#define extension_name 1

// all data typedefs, token #defines, prototypes, and
// function pointer typedefs for this extension

// function pointer typedefs must use the
// following naming convention

typedef return_type
            (CL_API_CALL *clExtensionFunctionNameTAG_fn)(...);

#endif // _extension_name_

where TAG can be KHR, EXT or vendor-specific.

Consider, for example, the cl_khr_gl_sharing extension. This extension would add the following to cl_gl_ext.h:

#ifndef cl_khr_gl_sharing
#define cl_khr_gl_sharing 1

// all data typedefs, token #defines, prototypes, and
// function pointer typedefs for this extension
#define CL_INVALID_GL_SHAREGROUP_REFERENCE_KHR  -1000
#define CL_CURRENT_DEVICE_FOR_GL_CONTEXT_KHR    0x2006
#define CL_DEVICES_FOR_GL_CONTEXT_KHR           0x2007
#define CL_GL_CONTEXT_KHR                       0x2008
#define CL_EGL_DISPLAY_KHR                      0x2009
#define CL_GLX_DISPLAY_KHR                      0x200A
#define CL_WGL_HDC_KHR                          0x200B
#define CL_CGL_SHAREGROUP_KHR                   0x200C

// function pointer typedefs must use the
// following naming convention
typedef cl_int
        (CL_API_CALL *clGetGLContextInfoKHR_fn)(
            const cl_context_properties * /* properties */,
            cl_gl_context_info /* param_name */,
            size_t /* param_value_size */,
            void * /* param_value */,
            size_t * /*param_value_size_ret*/);

#endif // cl_khr_gl_sharing
