clGetMemObjectInfo

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 or clCreateSubBuffer. cl_image_desc.image_type argument value if `memobj` is created with clCreateImage. `CL_MEM_OBJECT_PIPE` if `memobj` is created with clCreatePipe.
`CL_MEM_FLAGS`	cl_mem_flags	Returns the `flags` argument value specified when `memobj` is created with clCreateBuffer, clCreateSubBuffer, clCreateImage. or clCreatePipe. 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 or clCreateImage 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, return the `host_ptr` + `origin` value specified when `memobj` is created. `host_ptr` is the argument value specified to clCreateBuffer 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, the context associated with the memory object specified as the `buffer` argument to clCreateSubBuffer 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 if `memobj` is a subbuffer object created using clCreateSubBuffer. This returns the mem_object specified in cl_image_desc if `memobj` is an image object. Otherwise a NULL value is returned.
`CL_MEM_OFFSET`	size_t	Return offset if `memobj` is a sub-buffer object created using clCreateSubBuffer. This returns 0 if `memobj` is not a subbuffer object.
`CL_MEM_USES_SVM_POINTER`	cl_bool	Return `CL_TRUE` if `memobj` is a buffer object that was created with `CL_MEM_USE_HOST_PTR` or is a subbuffer object of a buffer object that was created with `CL_MEM_USE_HOST_PTR` and the `host_ptr` specified when the buffer object was created is a SVM pointer; otherwise returns `CL_FALSE`.
`CL_MEM_D3D10_RESOURCE_KHR`	ID3D10Resource *	If the cl_khr_d3d10_sharing extension is enabled, and if `memobj` was created using clCreateFromD3D10BufferKHR, clCreateFromD3D10Texture2DKHR, or clCreateFromD3D10Texture3DKHR, 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 (If the cl_khr_dx9_media_sharing 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 (If the cl_khr_dx9_media_sharing extension is supported)
`CL_MEM_D3D11_RESOURCE_KHR`	ID3D11Resource *	If the cl_khr_d3d11_sharing extension is supported, if `memobj` was created using clCreateFromD3D11BufferKHR, clCreateFromD3D11Texture2DKHR, or clCreateFromD3D11Texture3DKHR, 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 extension is enabled and if param_name is CL_MEM_D3D10_RESOURCE_KHR and memobj was not created by the function clCreateFromD3D10BufferKHR, clCreateFromD3D10Texture2DKHR, or clCreateFromD3D10Texture3DKHR.
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 from a Direct3D9 surface. (If the cl_khr_dx9_media_sharing 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, clCreateFromD3D11Texture2DKHR, or clCreateFromD3D11Texture3DKHR."
