/*
 * Block session interface
 *
 * A block session corresponds to a block device that can be used to read
 * or store data. Payload is communicated over the packet-stream interface
 * set up between 'Session_client' and 'Session_server'.
 *
 * Even though the methods 'tx' and 'tx_channel' are specific for the client
 * side of the block session interface, they are part of the abstract 'Session'
 * class to enable the client-side use of the block interface via a pointer to
 * the abstract 'Session' class. This way, we can transparently co-locate the
 * packet-stream server with the client in same program.
