Neuron is a device-sharing framework which is used by guests of the
haven hypervisor to serve or access shared I/O devices and other
inter-VM services.
There are three main layers that make up a neuron service.
channel - the physical layer transport that uses the hypervisor
provided transports.
protocol - defines the syntax and semantics to virtualize a specific
device across VMs. Block and Net are examples of protocols.
application - integrates the neuron service components into the rest of
the system. There would be front and back end application
drivers for the net protocol.
