Hi,

till today I have used C++ bindings for OpenCL and everything was working just fine. Today I have rewritten my code so it is completely in C.

And now I am getting error "CL_MEM_OBJECT_ALLOCATION_FAILURE" when creating buffers. I probably do not have enough memory because when I have commented some calls for buffer creation the error has occured later then before.

But I do not get it because with C++ bindings everything worked just fine and I did not have any memory problems and in the new code I do not create more buffers then before.

The code itself is rather complilcated - for creating the buffer I call other functions which creates and returns the buffer. So maybe passing buffers like this with C causes some problems?

Any idea where could be the problem?

Thanks a lot

Hi sakuri,

Can you please post your System config: CPU,GPU,SDK,DRIVER,OS?

Can you verify that clInfo shows sufficient Max Memory Allocation in clInfo.

If the problem is not solved please send a small testcase.

Maybe you inadvertently broke the buffer size calculation and it calls clCreateBuffer with some extremely high or negative value? Try to run your code in a debugger and see what value it sends to the buffer creation call.
