            from before the logical operation occured. The contents of the memory being updated by the atomic operation are\r

            Atomic memory functions are supported only for a limited set of variables.  A shader will fail to compile \r
            if the value passed to the mem argument of  an atomic memory function does not correspond to a buffer or \r
            shared variable.  It is acceptable to pass an element of an array or a single component of a vector to the \r
            mem argument of an atomic memory function, as long as the underlying array or vector is a buffer or \r
            shared variable.\r
