buf_clear
Zero out the storage associated with a buffer.
Declaration
void buf_clear(buf_t bp);Parameters
- bp:
The buffer to zero out.
Return Value
void.
Discussion
Calls buf_map() to get the buffer's data address; for a B_CLUSTER buffer (one which has had buf_setupl() called on it), it tries to map the buffer's UPL into memory; should only be called once during the life cycle of an iobuf (one allocated with buf_alloc()).
