[PATCH] OpenCL 1.2 disallow kernel parameters with private address space

[David Tweed]

Hi,

This looks patch looks LGTM, but being hyper-pedantic I'd suggest
saying in the commit message that it "enforces the restriction that a
kernel parameter cannot be declared as a pointer to the private
address space (as clarified in OpenCL 1.2)" (since clang isn't really
doing any discrimation of precise OpenCL standard versions anywhere in
the code.)
