 <h2 id="_overview">Overview</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <div class="paragraph"><p>The goal of this extension is to allow programmers to improve the performance of their applications by taking advantage of the fact that some work items in a work group execute together as a group (a "subgroup"), and that work items in a subgroup can take advantage of hardware features that are not available to work items in a work group.
 Specifically, this extension is designed to allow work items in a subgroup to share data without the use of local memory and work group barriers, and to utilize specialized hardware to load and store blocks of data.</p></div>
 <div class="paragraph"><p>There is a large amount of overlap between the functionality in this extension and the functionality in the Khronos subgroups extension <span class="monospaced">cl_khr_subgroups</span>, so this extension reuses many of the names, concepts, and functions already described by the <span class="monospaced">cl_khr_subgroups</span> extension.
 The key differences between the Intel subgroups extension and the Khronos subgroups extension are:</p></div>
 <div class="ulist"><ul>
 <li>
 <p>
 The Khronos subgroups extension requires OpenCL 2.0, but the Intel subgroups extension may be available on OpenCL 1.2 devices.
 </p>
 </li>
 <li>
 <p>
 The Khronos subgroups extension guarantees that subgroups in a work group will make independent forward progress, but the Intel extension does not guarantee that subgroups in a work group will make independent forward progress.
 </p>
 </li>
 <li>
 <p>
 The Intel extension adds a rich set of subgroup "shuffle" functions to allow work items within a work group to interchange data without the use of local memory and work group barriers.
 </p>
 </li>
 <li>
 <p>
 The Intel extension adds a set of subgroup "block read and write" functions to take advantage of specialized hardware to read or write blocks of data from or to buffers or images.
 </p>
 </li>
 <li>
 <p>
 The Intel subgroups extension does not include the subgroup pipes functions that are included as part of the Khronos subgroups extension.
 </p>
 </li>
 <li>
 <p>
 The Intel subgroups extension does not include the device-side kernel query functions for subgroups that are included as part of the Khronos subgroups extension.
 </p>
 </li>
 </ul></div>

 This means:</p></div>
 <div class="ulist"><ul>
 <li>
 <p>
 If the image has an element size equal to the size of a uint (four bytes, for example <span class="monospaced">CL_RGBA</span> + <span class="monospaced">CL_UNORM_INT8</span>), the image will be correctly bounds-checked.
 In this case, out-of-bounds reads will return the edge image element (the equivalent of <span class="monospaced">CLK_ADDRESS_CLAMP_TO_EDGE</span>), and out-of-bounds writes will be ignored.

 <li>
 <p>
 If the image has element size less than the size of a uint (such as <span class="monospaced">CL_R</span> + <span class="monospaced">CL_UNSIGNED_INT8</span>), the entire image is addressable, however bounds checking will occur too late.
 For this reason, extra care should be taken to avoid out-of-bounds reads and writes, since out-of-bounds reads may return invalid data and out-of-bounds writes may corrupt other images or buffers unpredictably.
