           This is a Kronos-approved extension
           name. If this extension is supported, "cl_khr_gl_sharing" will
           be returned for <code class="constant">CL_DEVICE_EXTENSIONS</code> using
           <a class="citerefentry" href="clGetDeviceInfo.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clGetDeviceInfo</span></span></a>.
         </p>
         <p>
            The OpenCL specification in section 9.7 defines how to
           share data with texture and buffer objects in a parallel OpenGL implementation,
           but does not define how the association between an OpenCL context and an OpenGL
           context or share group is established. This extension defines optional attributes
           to OpenCL context creation routines which associate a GL context or share group
           object with a newly created OpenCL context. If this extension is supported
           by an implementation, the string "cl_khr_gl_sharing" will be present in the
           <code class="constant">CL_DEVICE_EXTENSIONS</code>
           string described in the table of allowed values for <code class="varname">param_name</code>
           for <a class="citerefentry" href="clGetDeviceInfo.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clGetDeviceInfo</span></span></a>
           or in the <code class="constant">CL_PLATFORM_EXTENSIONS</code>
           string described in the table of allowed values for <code class="varname">param_name</code>
           for <a class="citerefentry" href="clGetPlatformInfo.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clGetPlatformInfo</span></span></a>.

         <p>

           This section discusses OpenCL functions that allow applications
           to use OpenGL buffer, texture, and renderbuffer objects as OpenCL memory objects. This
           allows efficient sharing of data between OpenCL and OpenGL. The OpenCL API may be used
           to execute kernels that read and/or write memory objects that are also OpenGL objects.
         </p>
         <p>
           An OpenCL image object may be created from an OpenGL texture or
           renderbuffer object. An OpenCL buffer object may be created from an OpenGL buffer object.
         </p>
         <p>
           OpenCL memory objects may be created from OpenGL objects
           if and only if the OpenCL context has been created from an OpenGL share group
           object or context. OpenGL share groups and contexts are created using platform
           specific APIs such as EGL, CGL, WGL, and GLX. On MacOS X, an OpenCL context may
           be created from an OpenGL share group object using the OpenCL platform extension
           cl_apple_gl_sharing. On other platforms including Microsoft Windows, Linux/Unix and
           others, an OpenCL context may be created from an OpenGL context using the Khronos
           platform extension <code class="function">cl_khr_gl_sharing</code>. Refer to the platform
           documentation for your OpenCL implementation, or visit the Khronos Registry at
           https://www.khronos.org/registry/cl/ for more information.
         </p>
         <p>
           Any supported OpenGL object defined within the GL share
           group object, or the share group associated with the GL context from which the CL
           context is created, may be shared, with the exception of the default OpenGL objects
           (i.e. objects named zero), which may not be shared.
         </p>
         <p>
             If the <a class="citerefentry" href="cl_khr_mipmap_image.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">cl_khr_mipmap_image</span></span></a>
             extension is supported by the OpenCL device, the
             <code class="function">cl_khr_gl_sharing</code> extension adds support for creating a
             mip-mapped CL image from a mip-mapped GL texture.
         </p>
         <p>
             To create a mip-mapped CL image from a mip-mapped GL texture, the
             <code class="varname">miplevel</code> argument to
             <a class="citerefentry" href="clCreateFromGLTexture.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clCreateFromGLTexture</span></span></a>
             should be a negative value. If <code class="varname">miplevel</code> is a negative
             value then a CL mipmapped image object is created from a mipmapped GL
             texture object instead of a CL image object for a specific miplevel of a GL texture.

	This is a Kronos-approved extension
	name. If this extension is supported, "cl_khr_gl_sharing" will
	be returned for <code class="constant">CL_DEVICE_EXTENSIONS</code> using
	<a class="citerefentry" href="clGetDeviceInfo.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clGetDeviceInfo</span></span></a>.
	</p>
	<p>
	The OpenCL specification in section 9.7 defines how to
	share data with texture and buffer objects in a parallel OpenGL implementation,
	but does not define how the association between an OpenCL context and an OpenGL
	context or share group is established. This extension defines optional attributes
	to OpenCL context creation routines which associate a GL context or share group
	object with a newly created OpenCL context. If this extension is supported
	by an implementation, the string "cl_khr_gl_sharing" will be present in the
	<code class="constant">CL_DEVICE_EXTENSIONS</code>
	string described in the table of allowed values for <code class="varname">param_name</code>
	for <a class="citerefentry" href="clGetDeviceInfo.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clGetDeviceInfo</span></span></a>
	or in the <code class="constant">CL_PLATFORM_EXTENSIONS</code>
	string described in the table of allowed values for <code class="varname">param_name</code>
	for <a class="citerefentry" href="clGetPlatformInfo.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clGetPlatformInfo</span></span></a>.
	</p>
	<p>

	This section discusses OpenCL functions that allow applications
	to use OpenGL buffer, texture, and renderbuffer objects as OpenCL memory objects. This
	allows efficient sharing of data between OpenCL and OpenGL. The OpenCL API may be used
	to execute kernels that read and/or write memory objects that are also OpenGL objects.
	</p>
	<p>
	An OpenCL image object may be created from an OpenGL texture or
	renderbuffer object. An OpenCL buffer object may be created from an OpenGL buffer object.
	</p>
	<p>
	OpenCL memory objects may be created from OpenGL objects
	if and only if the OpenCL context has been created from an OpenGL share group
	object or context. OpenGL share groups and contexts are created using platform
	specific APIs such as EGL, CGL, WGL, and GLX. On MacOS X, an OpenCL context may
	be created from an OpenGL share group object using the OpenCL platform extension
	cl_apple_gl_sharing. On other platforms including Microsoft Windows, Linux/Unix and
	others, an OpenCL context may be created from an OpenGL context using the Khronos
	platform extension <code class="function">cl_khr_gl_sharing</code>. Refer to the platform
	documentation for your OpenCL implementation, or visit the Khronos Registry at
	https://www.khronos.org/registry/cl/ for more information.
	</p>
	<p>
	Any supported OpenGL object defined within the GL share
	group object, or the share group associated with the GL context from which the CL
	context is created, may be shared, with the exception of the default OpenGL objects
	(i.e. objects named zero), which may not be shared.
	</p>
	<p>
	If the <a class="citerefentry" href="cl_khr_mipmap_image.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">cl_khr_mipmap_image</span></span></a>
	extension is supported by the OpenCL device, the
	<code class="function">cl_khr_gl_sharing</code> extension adds support for creating a
	mip-mapped CL image from a mip-mapped GL texture.
	</p>
	<p>
	To create a mip-mapped CL image from a mip-mapped GL texture, the
	<code class="varname">miplevel</code> argument to
	<a class="citerefentry" href="clCreateFromGLTexture.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">clCreateFromGLTexture</span></span></a>
	should be a negative value. If <code class="varname">miplevel</code> is a negative
	value then a CL mipmapped image object is created from a mipmapped GL
	texture object instead of a CL image object for a specific miplevel of a GL texture.
