Channel based API to reduce channel end usage #65

Closed larry-xmos closed 4 years ago

larry-xmos commented 5 years ago

Current implementation of XC interfaces allocates an additional channel end on client side. Channel end constrained applications would benefit from a channel based API. To emulate benefits of protocol checking you get interface, suggest using function calls and select (handler) functions to enforce a protocol, particularly on client side.
