The way I understand the spec for OpenCL C 2.0 is that whenever the address space of the pointer is not listed it means generic has to be used, here is one example: https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/specs/2.2/html/OpenCL_C.html#vector-data-load-and-store-functions gentypen vloadn(size_t offset, const gentype *p) gentypen vloadn(size_t offset, const __constant gentype *p) that has no address space (i.e. `generic`) and `constant` explicitly. So I think if address spaces are not listed explicitly they are not supposed to be available. One implication of adding all address space overloads is that it makes library size larger, but my feeling is that we don't have that many functions with pointers to significantly impace the library size?
