CLUNK 5
NAME
clunk - forget about a fid
SYNOPSIS
size [4] Tclunk tag [2] fid [4] size [4] Rclunk tag [2]
DESCRIPTION
The
clunk request informs the file server
that the current file represented by
fid is no longer needed by the client.
The actual file is not removed on the server unless the fid had been opened with
ORCLOSE . Once a fid has been clunked, the same fid can be reused in a new walk or attach request.
Even if the clunk returns an error, the fid is no longer valid.
ENTRY POINTS
A
clunk message is generated by
close and indirectly by other actions such as failed
open calls.
