<para>
<function>glGetSynciv</function> retrieves properties of a sync object. <parameter>sync</parameter> specifies the name of the sync
object whose properties to retrieve.
</para>
<para>
On success, <function>glGetSynciv</function> replaces up to <parameter>bufSize</parameter> integers in <parameter>values</parameter> with the
corresponding property values of the object being queried. The actual number of integers replaced is returned in the variable whose address is
specified in <parameter>length</parameter>. If <parameter>length</parameter> is <code>NULL</code>, no length is returned.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_OBJECT_TYPE</constant>, a single value representing the specific type of the sync object is
placed in <parameter>values</parameter>. The only type supported is <constant>GL_SYNC_FENCE</constant>.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_SYNC_STATUS</constant>, a single value representing the status of the sync object
(<constant>GL_SIGNALED</constant> or <constant>GL_UNSIGNALED</constant>) is placed in <parameter>values</parameter>.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_SYNC_CONDITION</constant>, a single value representing the condition of the sync object
is placed in <parameter>values</parameter>. The only condition supported is <constant>GL_SYNC_GPU_COMMANDS_COMPLETE</constant>.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_SYNC_FLAGS</constant>, a single value representing the flags with which the sync object
was created is placed in <parameter>values</parameter>. No flags are currently supported<footnote><para><parameter>flags</parameter> is
expected to be used in future extensions to the sync objects.</para></footnote>.
</para>
<para>
If an error occurs, nothing will be written to <parameter>values</parameter> or <parameter>length</parameter>.
</para>

<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE</constant> is generated if <parameter>sync</parameter> is not the name of a sync object.
