Concurrent Data Structures (CDS) library

The Concurrent Data Structures (CDS) library is a collection of concurrent containers that don't require external (manual) synchronization for shared access, and safe memory reclamation (SMR) algorithms like Hazard Pointer and user-space RCU that is used as an epoch-based SMR.

CDS is mostly header-only template library. Only SMR core implementation is segregated to .so/.dll file.

The library contains the implementations of the following containers:

   - lock-free stack with optional elimination support
   - several algo for lock-free queue, including classic Michael & Scott
     algorithm and its derivatives, the flat combining queue, the
     segmented queue.
   - several implementation of unordered set/map - lock-free and
     fine-grained lock-based
   - flat-combining technique
   - lock-free skip-list
   - lock-free FeldmanHashMap/Set Multi-Level Array Hash with thread-safe
     bidirectional iterator support Bronson's et al algorithm for
     fine-grained lock-based AVL tree

Generally, each container has an intrusive and non-intrusive (STL-like) version belonging to cds::intrusive and cds::container namespace respectively.
