Why is it necessary to hold  the send_buf in this structure ?

If it is used only in *_write, could it alloc/freed there ?

Because the write happens rarely, my preference is to alloc/free in
*_write().

Is a memset needed for a short buffer ?

Should this be STEP 17 ? the old 16 checked something else.
