remove - remove a file from a server

Tremove tag [2] fid [2]
Rremove tag [2] fid [2]

Description

The remove request asks the file server both to remove the file represented by fid and to clunk the fid. The fid is clunked even if the remove fails.

This request fails if the client does not have write permission in the parent directory.

It is correct to consider remove to be a clunk with the side effect of removing the file if permissions allow.

Entry Points

The remove messages are generated by the remove system call (see remove - remove a file in Chapter 8).
