A lock-free, concurrent, generic queue in 32 bits
- bsaul 5y agoI’m confused by the infinite « while » : is it a common pattern of lock-free data structures ?
- codefreakxff 5y agoDo you mean this part “This is a busy-wait loop, which makes for a simple illustration but isn’t ideal. In a real program I’d have the producer run a job while it waits for a queue slot, or just have it turn into a consumer (if this wasn’t a single-consumer queue)”
- Randor 5y ago"If for some reason a capacity of 32,767 is insufficient, you can trivially upgrade your queue to an Enterprise Queue" Thanks for the laugh! :)
