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.
