Rflush acknowledges a request cancellation. If the response to the cancelled request was already sent and received by the client, the client must ignore the Rflush message and proceed as if the request succeeded. A server should not send the response to the original request after the Rflush.
of_iovec verifies a message from an I/O vector. No copying is done, and of_iovec only performs bounds checks. Modifying the underlying I/O vector will change the results when accessing message fields.
