Expire data from the cache. If called without arguments, expirable entries will be cleared from the cache_page table.
Parameters
$cid: If set, the cache ID to delete. Otherwise, all cache entries that can expire are deleted.
$table: If set, the table $table to delete from. Mandatory argument if $cid is set.
$wildcard: If set to TRUE, the $cid is treated as a substring to match rather than a complete ID. The match is a right hand match. If '*' is given as $cid, the table $table will be emptied.
