The floatn
(or doublen)
value given by data is converted to
a halfn value using the appropriate
rounding mode. The halfn value is then
written to address computed as (p + (offset
* n)). The address computed as (p +
(offset * n)) must be 16-bit aligned.
vstore_half uses the default rounding
mode. The default rounding mode is round to nearest even.
n
Vector Data Load and Store Functions allow you to read and write vector types from a pointer to memory.
The suffix n in the function names
(i.e. vloadn, vstoren etc.)
represent n-element
vectors, where n = 2, 3, 4, 8 or 16.
The results of vector data
load and store functions are undefined if the address being read from or written to is
not correctly aligned. The pointer argument p can be a pointer to
global,
local, or
private
memory for store functions. The pointer argument
p can be a pointer to global, local,
constant or private memory for load functions.
NOTE: The vector data load and store functions variants that take pointer arguments which point to the generic address space are also supported.
vload3 and vload_half3 read x,
y, z components from address (p +
(offset * 3)) into a 3-component vector. vstore3,
and vstore_half3 write x, y,
z components from a 3-component vector to address (p
+ (offset * 3)).
In addition vloada_half3 reads x,
y, z components from address
(p + (offset * 4)) into a 3- component vector and
vstorea_half3 writes x, y,
z components from a 3-component vector to address (p
+ (offset * 4)).
