Como parte de ese parche, se us\u00f3 sizeof(void *) como tama\u00f1o de b\u00fafer para cargas de datos de longitud 0, de modo que el controlador pudiera detectar clientes abusivos que enviaran transacciones asincr\u00f3nicas de longitud 0 a un servidor imponiendo l\u00edmites en async_free_size.

Estas peque\u00f1as transacciones son poco comunes, por lo que este problema contable ha pasado desapercibido durante varios a\u00f1os. La soluci\u00f3n es utilizar \"buffer_size\" (el tama\u00f1o del b\u00fafer asignado) en lugar de \"size\" (el tama\u00f1o del b\u00fafer l\u00f3gico) al actualizar async_free_space durante la operaci\u00f3n libre.

As part of that patch,\nsizeof(void *) was used as the buffer size for 0-length data payloads so\nthe driver could detect abusive clients sending 0-length asynchronous\ntransactions to a server by enforcing limits on async_free_size.\nUnfortunately, on the \"free\" side, the accounting of async_free_space\ndid not add the sizeof(void *) back. The result was that up to 8-bytes of\nasync_free_space were leaked on every async transaction of 8-bytes or\nless.  These small transactions are uncommon, so this accounting issue\nhas gone undetected for several years.\nThe fix is to use \"buffer_size\" (the allocated buffer size) instead of\n\"size\" (the logical buffer size) when updating the async_free_space\nduring the free operation.
