      Yes,

          I was aware of GD and SD. My question is about what facilities
          Postgres provides for implementing such a thing. Where is the
          proper place for the root of the SD/GD? What does an implementation
          use to determine that two calls belong to the same session?
    
    
    the process ID is unique for each active session.   of course, the
    OS can recycle a PID when a process/connection terminates
