LlLinksetDataDeleteFound

Wiki description

This function will delete protected key-value pairs only if the matching pass phrase is passed in the pass parameter. The function returns a list, the first entry in the list is the number of keys deleted, the second entry in the list is the number of keys that could not be deleted due to a non-matching pass phrase.

If this function successfully deletes any keys from the datastore it will trigger a linkset_data event with the type of LINKSET_DATA_MULTIDELETE, the key name will consist of a comma separated list of the key names removed from the datastore.
