``pw_transfer`` is under construction and so is its documentation.

Protocol buffer definition

Server to client transfer (read)
================================

Client to server transfer (write)

Errors
======
At any point, either the client or server may terminate the transfer by sending
an error chunk with the transfer ID and a non-OK status.
