NAME

       cl_khr_int64_base_atomics - Optional extensions that implement atomic operations on 64-bit
       signed and unsigned integers to locations in __global and __local memory.

       #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION
       cl_khr_int64_base_atomics : enable

DESCRIPTION

       An application that wants to use this extension will need to include the #pragma OPENCL
       EXTENSION cl_khr_int64_base_atomics : enable directive in the OpenCL program source.

       The atomic functions supported by the cl_khr_int64_base_atomics extension are described in
       the following table. All of the functions listed in the following table are performed in
       one atomic transaction.

       These transactions are atomic for the device executing these atomic functions. There is no
       guarantee of atomicity if the atomic operations to the same memory location are being
       performed by kernels executing on multiple devices.

       Atomic operations on 64-bit integers and 32-bit integers (and float) are also atomic
       w.r.t. each other.
