Probably we can extend typedef semantic checks but I don't think it's a good idea since C and C++ have the similar problem but they don't provide special treatment for types from their standard libraries. I think the proposed approach conforms to general practice and I also think that it's better than to check canonical type and therefore to restrict ndrange_t with a particular non-standard implementation or do you envision something different from the canonical type checking in mind?


My concern is mainly about the representation and name mangling of ndrange_t in IR, not just about type checking. However I assume this may not be an issue if all users use the same opencl-c.h header file to compile the kernel for spir target.

Can you address Anastasia's comment about byval attribute of arguments of ndrange_t type? Thanks.
