            <code class="function">glBufferSubData</code> redefines some or all of the data store for the buffer object currently
            bound to <em class="parameter"><code>target</code></em>. Data starting at byte offset <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> and
            extending for <em class="parameter"><code>size</code></em> bytes is copied to the data store from the memory pointed to by
            <em class="parameter"><code>data</code></em>.  An error is thrown if <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>size</code></em>
            together define a range beyond the bounds of the buffer object's data store.
        </p></div><div class="refsect1"><a id="notes"></a><h2>Notes</h2><p>
            When replacing the entire data store, consider using <code class="function">glBufferSubData</code> rather
            than completely recreating the data store with <code class="function">glBufferData</code>.  This avoids the cost of
            reallocating the data store.
        </p><p>
            Consider using multiple buffer objects to avoid stalling the rendering pipeline during data store updates.
            If any rendering in the pipeline makes reference to data in the buffer object being updated by
            <code class="function">glBufferSubData</code>, especially from the specific region being updated, that rendering must
            drain from the pipeline before the data store can be updated.
        </p><p>
            Clients must align data elements consistent with the requirements of the client
            platform, with an additional base-level requirement that an offset within a buffer to
            a datum comprising <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" overflow="scroll"><mml:mi mathvariant="italic">N</mml:mi></mml:math> bytes be a
            multiple of <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" overflow="scroll"><mml:mi mathvariant="italic">N</mml:mi></mml:math>.
        </p><p>
            The <code class="constant">GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER</code> target is available only if the GL version
            is 4.2 or greater.
        </p><p>
            The <code class="constant">GL_DISPATCH_INDIRECT_BUFFER</code> and <code class="constant">GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER</code> targets are available only if the GL version
            is 4.3 or greater.
        </p><p>
            The <code class="constant">GL_QUERY_BUFFER</code> target is available only if the GL version is 4.4 or greater.
        </p></div><div class="refsect1"><a id="errors"></a><h2>Errors</h2><p>
            <code class="constant">GL_INVALID_ENUM</code> is generated if <em class="parameter"><code>target</code></em> is not
            one of the accepted buffer targets.
        </p><p>
            <code class="constant">GL_INVALID_VALUE</code> is generated if <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> or
            <em class="parameter"><code>size</code></em> is negative, or if together they define a region of memory
            that extends beyond the buffer object's allocated data store.
        </p><p>
            <code class="constant">GL_INVALID_OPERATION</code> is generated if the reserved buffer object name 0 is bound to <em class="parameter"><code>target</code></em>.
        </p><p>
            <code class="constant">GL_INVALID_OPERATION</code> is generated if the buffer object being updated is mapped.
