gss_release_buffer(3)                 gss                gss_release_buffer(3)

NAME
       gss_release_buffer - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gss.h>

       OM_uint32 gss_release_buffer(OM_uint32 * minor_status, gss_buffer_t
       buffer);

ARGUMENTS
       OM_uint32 * minor_status
                   (integer, modify) Mechanism specific status code.

       gss_buffer_t buffer
                   (buffer, modify) The storage associated with the buffer
                     will be deleted.  The gss_buffer_desc object will not be
                   freed,
                     but its length field will be zeroed.

DESCRIPTION
       Free storage associated with a buffer.  The storage must have been
       allocated by a GSS-API routine.  In addition to freeing the associated
       storage, the routine will zero the length field in the descriptor to
       which the buffer parameter refers, and implementations are encouraged
       to additionally set the pointer field in the descriptor to NULL.  Any
       buffer object returned by a GSS-API routine may be passed to
       gss_release_buffer (even if there is no storage associated with the
       buffer).

RETURN VALUE
       `GSS_S_COMPLETE`: Successful completion.
