27 <code class="function">glGetBufferSubData</code> returns some or all of the data from the buffer object currently
28 bound to <em class="parameter"><code>target</code></em>. Data starting at byte offset <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> and
29 extending for <em class="parameter"><code>size</code></em> bytes is copied from the data store to the memory pointed to by
30 <em class="parameter"><code>data</code></em>. An error is thrown if the buffer object is currently mapped, or if
31 <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>size</code></em> together define a range beyond the bounds
32 of the buffer object's data store.

34 If an error is generated,

37 The <code class="constant">GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFER</code> target is available only if the GL version is 4.2 or greater.

45 <code class="constant">GL_INVALID_VALUE</code> is generated if <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> or
46 <em class="parameter"><code>size</code></em> is negative, or if together they define a region of memory
47 that extends beyond the buffer object's allocated data store.
48 </p><p>
49 <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>.
50 </p><p>
51 <code class="constant">GL_INVALID_OPERATION</code> is generated if the buffer object being queried is mapped.
