[PyOpenCL] Allocating shared buffer memory?

[Zachary Tong]

Hello,

I'm probably being dense, but I can't quite figure out use shared memory in
PyOpenCL.  I attempted to allocate a shared buffer using cl.buffer(),
specifying the size but no hostbuf argument. The compiler, however,
complains of bad arguments when attempting to invoke the kernel.  Here is
basically what I'm doing:


sharedBuffer = cl.Buffer(ctx, mf.READ_WRITE, size = sharedSize)

__kernel void computeAttractionOpt( <a bunch of __global args>, __local
float * shared)

prgOpt.computeAttractionOpt(queue, <bunch of args>, sharedBuffer)


I'm clearly missing something, but am too new to PyOpenCL/OpenCL to catch
it.  Thanks =)
