NAME
       nbd_clear_meta_contexts - reset the list of requested meta contexts


SYNOPSIS
        #include <libnbd.h>

        int nbd_clear_meta_contexts (struct nbd_handle *h);


DESCRIPTION
       During connection libnbd can negotiate zero or more metadata contexts with the server.
       Metadata contexts are features (such as "base:allocation") which describe information
       returned by the nbd_block_status(3) command (for "base:allocation" this is whether blocks
       of data are allocated, zero or sparse).

       This command resets the list of meta contexts to request back to an empty list, for re-
       population by further use of nbd_add_meta_context(3).  It is primarily useful when option
       negotiation mode is selected (see nbd_set_opt_mode(3)), for altering the list of attempted
       contexts between subsequent export queries.


RETURN VALUE
       If the call is successful the function returns 0.


ERRORS
       On error "-1" is returned.

       Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details of the error.


HANDLE STATE
       The handle must be newly created, or negotiating, otherwise this call will return an
       error.


VERSION
       This function first appeared in libnbd 1.6.

       If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check if the following
       macro is defined:

        #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_CLEAR_META_CONTEXTS 1
