-------------------------------------
I've applied this patch to 3.2.X but I am seeing memory growth from unreleased
IO Buffers. Is there another patch that needs to be applied along with this?
I am running a test against a server that deliberately closes the connection
before reading the full post content. Polling the memory statistics every 30s:

> Failed post results in tunnel buffers being returned to freelist prematurely

> Key: TS-2497
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2497
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Brian Geffon
> Assignee: Brian Geffon
> Fix For: 4.2.0
>
>
> When a post fails to an origin server either the server died or the server
> returned a response without reading all of the post data, in either case, TS
> will destroy buffers too early. This normally does not result in a crash
> because the MIOBuffers are returned to the freelist and only with sufficient
> load will the race happen causing a crash. Additionally, even if a crash
> doesn't happen you might have data corruption across post requests from the
> buffers being used after being returned to the freelist.
> Thanks to Thomas Jackson for help reproducing and resolving this bug.
> An example stack trace, while we've seen other crashes in write_avail too.
