NAME

       Storage-class_Qualifiers - The typedef, extern and static storage-class specifiers.

NOTES

       The typedef, extern, and static storage-class specifiers are supported. The auto and
       register storage-class specifiers are not supported..

       The extern storage-class specifier can only be used for functions (kernel and non-kernel
       functions) and global variables declared in program scope. The static storage-class
       specifier can only be used for non-kernel functions and global variables declared in
       program scope.

   Example
       extern constant float4 noise_table[256]; static
       constant float4 color_table[256];

       extern kernel void my_foo(image2d_t img); extern
       void my_bar(global float *a);

       kernel void my_func(image2d_t img, global float
       *a) { extern constant float4 a;      // error.
       static constant float4 b;      // error.  static
       float c;                // error.

       ...  my_foo(img); ...  my_bar(a); ...  }
