Generic Security Services API Library Functions gss_delete_sec_context(3gss) NAME gss_delete_sec_context - delete a GSS-API security context SYNOPSIS cc [ flag... ] file... -lgss [ library... ] #include <gssapi/gssapi.h> OM_uint32 gss_delete_sec_context(OM_uint32 *minor_status, gss_ctx_id_t *context_handle,gss_buffer_t output_token); DESCRIPTION Use the gss_delete_sec_context() function to delete a security context. The gss_delete_sec_context() function will delete the local data struc- tures associated with the specified security context. You may not obtain further security services that use the context specified by con- text_handle. In addition to deleting established security contexts, gss_delete_sec_context() will delete any half-built security contexts that result from incomplete sequences of calls to gss_init_sec_con- text(3GSS) and gss_accept_sec_context(3GSS). The Solaris implementation of the GSS-API retains the output_token parameter for compatibility with version 1 of the GSS-API. Both peer applications should invoke gss_delete_sec_context(), passing the value GSS_C_NO_BUFFER to the output_token parameter; this indicates that no token is required. If the application passes a valid buffer to gss_delete_sec_context(), it will return a zero-length token, indicat- ing that no token should be transferred by the application. PARAMETERS The parameter descriptions for gss_delete_sec_context() follow: minor_status A mechanism specific status code. context_handle Context handle identifying specific context to delete. After deleting the context, the GSS-API will set context_handle to GSS_C_NO_CONTEXT. output_token A token to be sent to remote applications that instructs them to delete the context. ERRORS gss_delete_sec_context() may return the following status codes: GSS_S_COMPLETE Successful completion. GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT No valid context was supplied. GSS_S_FAILURE The underlying mechanism detected an error for which no specific GSS status code is defined. The mechanism-specific status code reported by means of the minor_status parameter details the error condi- tion.
