       cl_int clReleaseContext(cl_context context);

PARAMETERS

         context
           The context to release.

       •   CL_INVALID_CONTEXT if context is not a valid OpenCL context.

       •   CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the OpenCL
           implementation on the device.

       •   CL_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY if there is a failure to allocate resources required by the
           OpenCL implementation on the host.
