clGetPipeInfo

Get information specific to a pipe object created with clCreatePipe.

cl_int clGetPipeInfo ( cl_mem  pipe ,
  cl_pipe_info  param_name ,
  size_t  param_value_size ,
  void  *param_value ,
  size_t  *param_value_size_ret )

Parameters

pipe

Specifies the pipe 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 clGetPipeInfo is described in the table below.

cl_pipe_info Return Type Info. returned in param_value
CL_PIPE_PACKET_SIZE cl_uint Return pipe packet size specified when pipe is created with clCreatePipe.
CL_PIPE_MAX_PACKETS cl_uint Return max. number of packets specified when pipe is created with clCreatePipe.
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.

Notes

To get information that is common to all memory objects, use the clGetMemObjectInfo function.

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 pipe 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.
