get_info(param)¶: See device_info for values of param.

Two instances of this class may be compared using ==” and ”!=”.

class pyopencl.Context(devices=None, properties=None, dev_type=None)¶

Create a new context. properties is a list of key-value tuples, where each key must be one of context_properties. At most one of devices and dev_type may be not None, where devices is a list of Device instances, and dev_type is one of the device_type constants. If neither is specified, a context with a dev_type of device_type.DEFAULT is created.

Note

Calling the constructor with no arguments will fail for recent CL drivers that support the OpenCL ICD. If you want similar, just-give-me-a-context-already behavior, we recommend create_some_context(). See, e.g. this explanation by AMD.

Note

For context_properties.CL_GL_CONTEXT_KHR, context_properties.CL_EGL_DISPLAY_KHR, context_properties.CL_GLX_DISPLAY_KHR, context_properties.CL_WGL_HDC_KHR, and context_properties.CL_CGL_SHAREGROUP_KHR context_properties.CL_CGL_SHAREGROUP_APPLE the value in the key-value pair is a PyOpenGL context or display instance.

New in version 0.91.5.

Changed in version 2011.2: Takes wait_for and returns an Event

pyopencl.enqueue_marker(queue, wait_for=None)¶: Returns an Event.

Changed in version 2011.2: Takes wait_for.

pyopencl.enqueue_wait_for_events(queue, events)¶

Only available with the cl_ext_migrate_memobject extension.

Buffers¶

class pyopencl.Buffer(context, flags, size=0, hostbuf=None)¶

Create a Buffer. See mem_flags for values of flags. If hostbuf is specified, size defaults to the size of the specified buffer if it is passed as zero.

Buffer is a subclass of MemoryObject.

Note that actual memory allocation in OpenCL may be deferred. Buffers are attached to a Context and are only moved to a device once the buffer is used on that device. That is also the point when out-of-memory errors will occur. If you’d like to be sure that there’s enough memory for your allocation, either use enqueue_migrate_mem_objects() (if available) or simply perform a small transfer to the buffer. See also pyopencl.tools.ImmediateAllocator.

get_sub_region(origin, size, flags=0)¶: Only available in OpenCL 1.1 and newer.

__getitem__(slc)¶: slc is a slice object indicating from which byte index range a sub-buffer is to be created. The flags argument of get_sub_region() is set to the same flags with which self was created.

pyopencl.enqueue_fill_buffer(queue, mem, pattern, offset, size, wait_for=None)¶

Parameters:	pattern – a buffer object (likely a `numpy.ndarray`)

Returns a new pyopencl.Event. wait_for may either be None or a list of pyopencl.Event instances for whose completion this command waits before starting exeuction.

Only available with CL 1.2.

__repr__()¶: Returns a str representation of the image format.

New in version 0.91.

pyopencl.get_supported_image_formats(context, flags, image_type)¶: See mem_flags for possible values of flags and mem_object_type for possible values of image_type.

Images¶

Image(context, flags, format, shape=None, pitches=None, hostbuf=None, is_array=False, buffer=None):

See mem_flags for values of flags. shape is a 2- or 3-tuple. format is an instance of ImageFormat. pitches is a 1-tuple for 2D images and a 2-tuple for 3D images, indicating the distance in bytes from one scan line to the next, and from one 2D image slice to the next.

If hostbuf is given and shape is None, then hostbuf.shape is used as the shape parameter.

Image is a subclass of MemoryObject.

Note

If you want to load images from numpy.ndarray instances or read images back into them, be aware that OpenCL images expect the x dimension to vary fastest, whereas in the default (C) order of numpy arrays, the last index varies fastest. If your array is arranged in the wrong order in memory, there are two possible fixes for this:

Convert the array to Fortran (column-major) order using numpy.asarray().
Pass ary.T.copy() to the image creation function.

New in version 0.91.

Changed in version 2011.2: Added is_array and buffer, which are only available on CL 1.2 and newer.

pyopencl.info¶: Lower case versions of the mem_info and image_info constants may be used as attributes on instances of this class to directly query info attributes.

pyopencl.shape¶: Return the value of the shape constructor argument as a tuple.

pyopencl.get_image_info(param)¶: See image_info for values of param.

pyopencl.release()¶

Instances of this class are hashable, and two instances of this class may be compared using “==” and ”!=”. (Hashability was added in version 2011.2.)

pyopencl.image_from_array(ctx, ary, num_channels=None, mode="r", norm_int=False)¶

Build a 2D or 3D Image from the numpy.ndarray ary. If num_channels is greater than one, the last dimension of ary must be identical to num_channels. ary must be in C order. If num_channels is not given, it defaults to 1 for scalar types and the number of entries for Vector Types.

The ImageFormat is chosen as the first num_channels components of “RGBA”.

Parameters:	mode – “r” or “w” for read/write

Note

When reading from the image object, the indices passed to read_imagef are in the reverse order from what they would be when accessing ary from Python.

If norm_int is True, then the integer values are normalized to a floating point scale of 0..1 when read.

New in version 2011.2.

pyopencl.enqueue_fill_image(queue, mem, color, origin, region, wait_for=None)¶

Parameters:	color – a buffer object (likely a `numpy.ndarray`)

New in version 2011.1.

Mapping Memory into Host Address Space¶

class pyopencl.MemoryMap¶

release(queue=None, wait_for=None)¶

pyopencl.enqueue_map_buffer(queue, buf, flags, offset, shape, dtype, order="C", wait_for=None, is_blocking=True)¶

wait_for may either be None or a list of pyopencl.Event instances for whose completion this command waits before starting exeuction. shape, dtype, and order have the same meaning as in numpy.empty(). See map_flags for possible values of flags.

Returns:	a tuple (array, event). array is a `numpy.ndarray` representing the host side of the map. Its .base member contains a `MemoryMap`.

Programs and Kernels¶

class pyopencl.Program(context, src)¶

class pyopencl.Program(context, devices, binaries)

binaries must contain one binary for each entry in devices.

info¶: Lower case versions of the program_info constants may be used as attributes on instances of this class to directly query info attributes.

get_info(param)¶: See program_info for values of param.

get_build_info(device, param)¶: See program_build_info for values of param.

build(options=[], devices=None)¶

options is a string of compiler flags. Returns self.

By default, built binaries are cached in an on-disk cache called pyopencl-compiler-cache-vN-uidNAME-pyVERSION in the directory returned by tempfile.gettempdir(). By setting the environment variable PYOPENCL_NO_CACHE to any non-empty value, this caching is suppressed. Any options found in the environment variable PYOPENCL_BUILD_OPTIONS will be appended to options.

Changed in version 2011.1: options may now also be a list of str.

Changed in version 2013.1: Added PYOPENCL_NO_CACHE. Added PYOPENCL_BUILD_OPTIONS.

compile(self, options=[], devices=None, headers=[])¶

Parameters:	headers – a list of tuples (name, program).

Only available with CL 1.2.

New in version 2011.2.

kernel_name¶: Kernel objects can be produced from a built (see build()) program simply by attribute lookup.

Note

The program_info attributes live in the same name space and take precedence over Kernel names.

Instances of this class are hashable, and two instances of this class may be compared using “==” and ”!=”. (Hashability was added in version 2011.2.)

all_kernels()¶: Returns a list of all Kernel objects in the Program.

New in version 2011.2.

class pyopencl.Kernel(program, name)¶

info¶: Lower case versions of the kernel_info constants may be used as attributes on instances of this class to directly query info attributes.

get_info(param)¶: See kernel_info for values of param.

get_work_group_info(param, device)¶: See kernel_work_group_info for values of param.

get_arg_info(arg_index, param)¶

See kernel_arg_info for values of param.

Only available in OpenCL 1.2 and newer.

set_arg(self, index, arg)¶

arg may be

None: This may be passed for __global memory references to pass a NULL pointer to the kernel.
Anything that satisfies the Python buffer interface, in particular numpy.ndarray, str, or numpy‘s sized scalars, such as numpy.int32 or numpy.float64.

Note

Note that Python’s own int or float objects will not work out of the box. See Kernel.set_scalar_arg_dtypes() for a way to make them work. Alternatively, the standard library module struct can be used to convert Python’s native number types to binary data in a str.
An instance of MemoryObject. (e.g. Buffer, Image, etc.)
An instance of LocalMemory.
An instance of Sampler.

set_args(self, *args)¶: Invoke set_arg() on each element of args in turn.

New in version 0.92.

set_scalar_arg_dtypes(arg_dtypes)¶

Inform the wrapper about the sized types of scalar Kernel arguments. For each argument, arg_dtypes contains an entry. For non-scalars, this must be None. For scalars, it must be an object acceptable to the numpy.dtype constructor, indicating that the corresponding scalar argument is of that type.

After invoking this function with the proper information, most suitable number types will automatically be cast to the right type for kernel invocation.

Note

The information set by this rountine is attached to a single kernel instance. A new kernel instance is created every time you use program.kernel attribute access. The following will therefore not work:

prg = cl.Program(...).build()
prg.kernel.set_scalar_arg_dtypes(...)
prg.kernel(queue, n_globals, None, args)

__call__(queue, global_size, local_size, *args, global_offset=None, wait_for=None, g_times_l=False)¶

Use enqueue_nd_range_kernel() to enqueue a kernel execution, after using set_args() to set each argument in turn. See the documentation for set_arg() to see what argument types are allowed. Returns a new pyopencl.Event. wait_for may either be None or a list of pyopencl.Event instances for whose completion this command waits before starting exeuction.

None may be passed for local_size.

If g_times_l is specified, the global size will be multiplied by the local size. (which makes the behavior more like Nvidia CUDA) In this case, global_size and local_size also do not have to have the same number of dimensions.

Note

__call__() is not thread-safe. It sets the arguments using set_args() and then runs enqueue_nd_range_kernel(). Another thread could race it in doing the same things, with undefined outcome. This issue is inherited from the C-level OpenCL API. The recommended solution is to make a kernel (i.e. access prg.kernel_name, which corresponds to making a new kernel) for every thread that may enqueue calls to the kernel.

A solution involving implicit locks was discussed and decided against on the mailing list in October 2012.

Changed in version 0.92: local_size was promoted to third positional argument from being a keyword argument. The old keyword argument usage will continue to be accepted with a warning throughout the 0.92 release cycle. This is a backward-compatible change (just barely!) because local_size as third positional argument can only be a tuple or None. tuple instances are never valid Kernel arguments, and None is valid as an argument, but its treatment in the wrapper had a bug (now fixed) that prevented it from working.

Changed in version 2011.1: Added the g_times_l keyword arg.

capture_call(filename, queue, global_size, local_size, *args, global_offset=None, wait_for=None, g_times_l=False)¶

This method supports the exact same interface as __call__(), but instead of invoking the kernel, it writes a self-contained PyOpenCL program to filename that reproduces this invocation. Data and kernel source code will be packaged up in filename‘s source code.

This is mainly intended as a debugging aid. For example, it can be used to automate the task of creating a small, self-contained test case for an observed problem. It can also help separate a misbehaving kernel from a potentially large or time-consuming outer code.

To use, simply change:

evt = my_kernel(queue, gsize, lsize, arg1, arg2, ...)

to:

evt = my_kernel.capture_call("bug.py", queue, gsize, lsize, arg1, arg2, ...)

New in version 2013.1.

Instances of this class are hashable, and two instances of this class may be compared using “==” and ”!=”. (Hashability was added in version 2011.2.)
