|  | <p> | 
|  | The <code class="code">__attribute__((opencl_unroll_hint))</code> | 
|  | and <code class="code">__attribute__((opencl_unroll_hint(n)))</code> | 
|  | attribute qualifiers can be used to specify that a loop | 
|  | (<code class="code">for</code>, <code class="code">while</code> and <code class="code">do</code> loops) | 
|  | can be unrolled. This attribute qualifier can be | 
|  | used to specify full unrolling or partial unrolling | 
|  | by a specified amount. This is a compiler hint | 
|  | and the compiler may ignore this directive. | 
|  | </p> | 
|  | <p> | 
|  | <code class="code">n</code> is the loop unrolling factor and must | 
|  | be a positive integral compile time constant expression. | 
|  | An unroll factor of 1 disables unrolling. If | 
|  | <code class="code">n</code> is not specified, the compiler determines the | 
|  | unrolling factor for the loop. | 
|  | </p> | 
|  | <p> | 
|  | NOTE: The <code class="code">__attribute__((opencl_unroll_hint(n)))</code> | 
|  | attribute qualifier must | 
|  | appear immediately before the loop to be affected. |
