<!-- ================================ DESCRIPTION -->
<refsect1 id="description"><title>Description</title>
<para>
The OpenCL C programming language implements these functions that provide asynchronous
copies between global and local memory and a prefetch from global memory.
</para>
<para>
Perform an async copy of <varname>num_gentypes</varname> elements from
<varname>src</varname> to <varname>dst</varname>. The async copy is performed by all
work-items in a work-group and this built-in function must therefore be encountered
by all work-items in a work-group executing the kernel with the same argument values;
otherwise the results are undefined.
</para>
<para>
Returns an event object that can be used by
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>wait_group_events</refentrytitle></citerefentry> to
wait for the async copy to finish. The <varname>event</varname> argument can also be
used to associate the <function>async_work_group_copy</function> with a previous
async copy allowing an event to be shared by multiple async copies; otherwise
<varname>event</varname> should be zero.
</para>
<para>
If <varname>event</varname> argument is non-zero, the event object supplied in
<varname>event</varname> argument will be returned.
</para>
<para>
This function does not perform any implicit synchronization of source data such as
using a <citerefentry><refentrytitle>barrier</refentrytitle></citerefentry> before
performing the copy.
</para>
</refsect1>
<!-- ================================ NOTES -->
<refsect1 id="notes"><title>Notes</title>
<para>
The generic type name <type>gentype</type> indicates the built-in data
types <type>char</type>, <type>char{2|3|4|8|16}</type>, <type>uchar</type>,
<type>uchar{2|3|4|8|16}</type>, <type>short</type>, <type>short{2|3|4|8|16}</type>,
<type>ushort</type>, <type>ushort{2|3|4|8|16}</type>, <type>int</type>,
<type>int{2|3|4|8|16}</type>, <type>uint</type>, <type>uint{2|3|4|8|16}</type>,
<type>long</type>, <type>long{2|3|4|8|16}</type>, <type>ulong</type>,
<type>ulong{2|3|4|8|16}</type> or <type>float</type>, <type>float{2|3|4|8|16}</type>
as the type for the arguments unless otherwise stated.
</para>
<para>
Optionally, generic type name <type>gentype</type> may indicate <type>double</type>
and <type>double{2|3|4|8|16}</type> as arguments and return values. If extended with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>cl_khr_fp16</refentrytitle></citerefentry>, generic type
name <type>gentype</type> may indicate <type>half</type> and <type>half{2|3|4|8|16}</type>
as arguments and return values.
</para>
<para>
<function>async_work_group_copy</function> and
<function>async_work_group_strided_copy</function> for 3-component
vector types behave as <function>async_work_group_copy</function> and
<function>async_work_group_strided_copy</function> respectively for 4-component vector
types.
</para>
