<title>Parameters</title>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>command_queue</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Is a valid host command-queue in which the read command will be
queued. <varname>command_queue</varname> and <varname>buffer</varname>
must be created with the same OpenCL context.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>buffer</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>Refers to a valid buffer object.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>blocking_read</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>
Indicates if the read operations are
<varname>blocking</varname> or <varname>non-blocking</varname>.
</para>
<para>
If <varname>blocking_read</varname> is <constant>CL_TRUE</constant>
i.e. the read command is blocking, <function>clEnqueueReadBuffer</function>
does not return until the buffer data has been read and copied into memory
pointed to by <varname>ptr</varname>.
</para>
<para>
If <varname>blocking_read</varname> is <constant>CL_FALSE</constant>
i.e. the read command is <varname>non-blocking</varname>,
<function>clEnqueueReadBuffer</function> queues a
<varname>non-blocking</varname> read command and returns. The contents of
the buffer that <varname>ptr</varname> points to cannot be used until the
read command has completed. The <varname>event</varname> argument returns
an event object which can be used to query the execution status of the
read command. When the read command has completed, the contents of the
buffer that <varname>ptr</varname> points to can be used by the application.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>offset</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>The offset in bytes in the buffer object to read from.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>size</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>The size in bytes of data being read.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term> <varname>ptr </varname> </term>
<listitem>
<para>
The pointer to buffer in host memory where data is to be read into.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>
<varname>event_wait_list</varname>
</term>
<term>
<varname>num_events_in_wait_list</varname>
</term>
<listitem>
<para>
<varname>event_wait_list</varname>
and <varname>num_events_in_wait_list</varname> specify events that
need to complete before this particular command can be executed.
If <varname>event_wait_list</varname> is NULL, then this particular command
does not wait on any event to complete. If <varname>event_wait_list</varname>
is NULL, <varname>num_events_in_wait_list</varname> must be 0. If
<varname>event_wait_list</varname> is not NULL, the list of events
pointed to by <varname>event_wait_list</varname> must be valid
and <varname>num_events_in_wait_list</varname> must be greater
than 0. The events specified in <varname>event_wait_list</varname>
act as synchronization points. The context associated with events in
<varname>event_wait_list</varname> and <varname>command_queue</varname> must
be the same. The memory associated with <varname>event_wait_list</varname>
can be reused or freed after the function returns.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term> <varname> event </varname> </term>
<listitem>
<para>
Returns an event object that identifies
this particular read command and can be used to query or queue a wait
for this particular command to complete. <varname>event</varname> can be
NULL in which case it will not be possible for the application to query
the status of this command or queue a wait for this command to complete.
If the <varname>event_wait_list</varname> and the <varname>event</varname> arguments are
not NULL, the <varname>event</varname> argument should not refer to an
element of the <varname>event_wait_list</varname> array.

Calling <function>clEnqueueReadBuffer</function> to read a region of the buffer object

created from this buffer object have finished execution before the read command
begins execution.
