          Variables inside a kernel function not declared with an
          address space qualifier, all variables inside non-kernel functions, and all function
          arguments are in the <code class="function">__private</code> or <code class="function">private</code>
          address space.

        <h2>Notes</h2>
        <h4><a id="id-1.6.2"></a>General information about address space qualifiers</h4>
        <p>
      OpenCL implements the following disjoint named address 
      spaces: <code class="function">__global</code>,
      <code class="function">__local</code>, <code class="function">__constant</code>, and
      <code class="function">__private</code>. The address space qualifier may be used in variable
      declarations to specify the region of memory that is used to allocate the object. The
      C syntax for type qualifiers is extended in OpenCL 
      to include an address space name as a valid type qualifier.
      If the type of an object is qualified by an address 
      space name, the object is allocated in the 
      specified address name; otherwise, the object is 
      allocated in the generic address space.
    </p>
        <p>
      The address space names without the  __  prefix i.e. <code class="function">global</code>,
      <code class="function">local</code>, <code class="function">constant</code> 
      and <code class="function">private</code>
      may be substituted for the corresponding address 
      space names with the  __  prefix.
    </p>
        <p>
        The address space name for arguments to a function 
        in a program, or local variables of a function 
        is <code class="function">__private</code>. All function 
        arguments shall be in the <code class="function">__private</code> address space.
        The address space for a variable at program scope 
        or a static variable inside a function can either 
        be <code class="function">__global</code> or 
        <code class="function">__constant</code>, but defaults to 
        <code class="function">__global</code> if not specified.
    </p>
        <p>
        OpenCL 2.0 adds support for an unnamed <code class="function">generic</code> 
        address space. Pointers that are declared 
        without pointing to a named address space point to the 
        <code class="function">generic</code> address space. Before 
        referring to the region pointed to, the pointer 
        must be associated with a named address space.
        Functions may be written with arguments and return values that point to the 
        <code class="function">generic</code> address space.
    </p>
        <p>
        kernel function arguments declared to be a pointer or 
        an array of a type must point to one of 
        the named address spaces <code class="function">__global</code>, 
        <code class="function">__local</code> or <code class="function">__constant</code>.
    </p>
        <p>
        The named address spaces are a subset of the generic 
        address space except for the <code class="function">constant</code>
        address space.
    </p>
        <p>
        A pointer to address space A can only be assigned to 
        a pointer to the same address space A or a 
        pointer to the <code class="function">generic</code> address 
        space. Casting a pointer to address space A to a pointer to 
        address space B is illegal if A and B are named 
        address spaces and A is not the same as B.
    </p>
        <p>
        The <code class="function">__global</code>, <code class="function">__constant</code>, 
        <code class="function">__local</code>, 
        <code class="function">__private</code>, <code class="function">__generic</code>, 
        <code class="function">global</code>, 
        <code class="function">constant</code>, <code class="function">local</code>, and
        <code class="function">private</code> names are reserved for use as address space 
        qualifiers and shall not be used otherwise.
        The <code class="function">__generic</code> and <code class="function">generic</code> 
        names are reserved for future use.
    </p>
        <p>
        The size of pointers to different address spaces 
        may differ. It is not correct to assume
        that, for example, <code class="code">sizeof(__global int *)</code> 
        always equals <code class="code">sizeof(__local int *)</code>.
