OpenCL C Language Changes in Clang
----------------------------------
-...
+**The following bugs in the OpenCL header have been fixed:**
+
+* Added missing ``overloadable`` and ``convergent`` attributes.
+* Removed some erroneous extra ``native_*`` functions.
+
+**The following bugs in the generation of metadata have been fixed:**
+
+* Corrected the SPIR version depending on the OpenCL version.
+* Source level address spaces are taken from the SPIR specification.
+* Image types now contain no access qualifier.
+
+**The following bugs in the AMD target have been fixed:**
+
+* Corrected the bitwidth of ``size_t`` and NULL pointer value with respect to
+ address spaces.
+* Added ``cl_khr_subgroups``, ``cl_amd_media_ops`` and ``cl_amd_media_ops2``
+ extensions.
+* Added ``cl-denorms-are-zero`` support.
+* Changed address spaces for image objects to be ``constant``.
+* Added little-endian.
+
+**The following bugs in OpenCL 2.0 have been fixed:**
+
+* Fixed pipe builtin function return type, added extra argument to generated
+ IR intrinsics to propagate size and alignment information of the pipe packed
+ type.
+* Improved pipe type to accommodate access qualifiers.
+* Added correct address space to the ObjC block generation and ``enqueue_kernel``
+ prototype.
+* Improved handling of integer parameters of ``enqueue_kernel`` prototype. We
+ now allow ``size_t`` instead of ``int`` for specifying block parameter sizes.
+* Allow using NULL (aka ``CLK_NULL_QUEUE``) with ``queue_t``.
+
+
+**Improved the following diagnostics:**
+
+* Disallow address spaces other than ``global`` for kernel pointer parameters.
+* Correct the use of half type argument and pointer assignment with
+ dereferencing.
+* Disallow variadic arguments in functions and blocks.
+* Allow partial initializer for array and struct.
+
+**Some changes to OpenCL extensions have been made:**
+
+* Added ``cl_khr_mipmap_image``.
+* Added ``-cl-ext`` flag to allow overwriting supported extensions otherwise
+ set by the target compiled for (Example: ``-cl-ext=-all,+cl_khr_fp16``).
+* New types and functions can now be flexibly added to extensions using the
+ following pragmas instead of modifying the Clang source code:
+
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION the_new_extension_name : begin
+ // declare types and functions associated with the extension here
+ #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION the_new_extension_name : end
+
+
+**Miscellaneous changes:**
+
+* Fix ``__builtin_astype`` to cast between different address space objects.
+* Allow using ``opencl_unroll_hint`` with earlier OpenCL versions than 2.0.
+* Improved handling of floating point literal to default to single precision if
+ fp64 extension is not enabled.
+* Refactor ``sampler_t`` implementation to simplify initializer representation
+ which is now handled as a compiler builtin function with an integer value
+ passed into it.
+* Change fake address space map to use the SPIR convention.
+* Added `the OpenCL manual
+ <https://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#opencl-features>`_ to Clang
+ documentation.

+OpenCL Extensions
+-----------------
+
+All of the ``cl_khr_*`` extensions from `the official OpenCL specification
+<https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/sdk/2.0/docs/man/xhtml/EXTENSION.html>`_
+up to and including version 2.0 are available and set per target depending on the
+support available in the specific architecture.
+
+It is possible to alter the default extensions setting per target using
+``-cl-ext`` flag. (See :ref:`flags description <opencl_cl_ext>` for more details).
+
+Vendor extensions can be added flexibly by declaring the list of types and
+functions associated with each extensions enclosed within the following
+compiler pragma directives:
+
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION the_new_extension_name : begin
+ // declare types and functions associated with the extension here
+ #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION the_new_extension_name : end
+
+For example, parsing the following code adds ``my_t`` type and ``my_func``
+function to the custom ``my_ext`` extension.
+
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION my_ext : begin
+ typedef struct{
+ int a;
+ }my_t;
+ void my_func(my_t);
+ #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION my_ext : end
+
+Declaring the same types in different vendor extensions is disallowed.
