<h2 id="generic-type-name-notation">1. Generic Type Name Notation</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The generic type names are used when some entity has multiple overloads which differ only by argument(s).
They can map to one or more built-in data types.
The tables below describe these mappings in details.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Assuming that <code>gentype</code> maps to built-in types: <code>float</code>, <code>int</code> and <code>uint</code>, when coming across definition:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="CodeRay highlight"><code>gentype function(gentype x);</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>reader should understand that such function has in fact three overloads:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="CodeRay highlight"><code>float function(float x);
int function(int x);
uint function(uint x);</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that if a function signature has multiple usages of <code>gentype</code> they all should map to the same type.
Following this rule such overloads are then invalid:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="CodeRay highlight"><code>float function(int x);
uint function(float x);
// etc.</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If a function is meant to have such overloads, respective gentypes in its signature should be postfixed with numbers to indicate they represent different types.
Declaration like this:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="CodeRay highlight"><code>cl::common_type_t&lt;gentype1, gentype2&gt; greater(gentype1 x, gentype2 y);</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>would match following overloads:</p>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="CodeRay highlight"><code>cl::common_type_t&lt;float, float&gt; greater(float x, float y);
cl::common_type_t&lt;float, int&gt; greater(float x, int y);
cl::common_type_t&lt;float, uint&gt; greater(float x, uint y);

<h5 id="builtin-half-data-type">Built-in Half Data Type</h5>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>half</code> data type must be IEEE 754-2008 compliant.
<code>half</code> numbers have 1 sign bit, 5 exponent bits, and 10 mantissa bits.
The interpretation of the sign, exponent and mantissa is analogous to IEEE 754 floating-point numbers.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The exponent bias is 15.
The <code>half</code> data type must represent finite and normal numbers, denormalized numbers, infinities and NaN.
Denormalized numbers for the <code>half</code> data type which may be generated when converting a <code>float</code> to a <code>half</code> using <code>vstore_half</code> and converting a <code>half</code> to a <code>float</code> using <code>vload_half</code> cannot be flushed to zero.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Conversions from <code>float</code> to <code>half</code> correctly round the mantissa to 11 bits of precision.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Conversions from <code>half</code> to <code>float</code> are lossless; all <code>half</code> numbers are exactly representable as <code>float</code> values.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>half</code> data type can only be used to declare a pointer to a buffer that contains <code>half</code> values.
All other operations are not allowed if the <strong>cl_khr_fp16</strong> extension is not supported.</p>

The syntax of a swizzle expression is similar to syntax used in class member access expression <em>[ISO/IEC 14882:2014: expr.ref, ch. 5.2.5]</em>:
The swizzle expression is a postfix expression formed with a postfix expression followed by a dot <code>.</code> or an arrow <code>-&gt;</code> and then followed by an <em>vector-swizzle-selector</em>. The postfix expression before the dot or arrow is evaluated.
