.Sh 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
|
|
|
|
.Dv NULL .
|
|
|
|
Any buffer object returned by a GSS-API routine may be passed to
|
|
|
|
.Fn gss_release_buffer
|
|
|
|
(even if there is no storage associated with the buffer).
