[idea] liblfds -- lock-free data structure

[tiran]

gilectomy doesn't have a mailing list to discuss ideas yet. I'm using the tracker to keep a record of my idea.

I had a conversation with William Brown, a co-worker and developer of the 389 Directory Server. He has been working on lock free database for 389 DS [1]. William pointed me to liblfds [2], an open source library with lock-free data structures. liblfds provides freelist and queues. The wiki also contains good information on memory barriers and CAS.

How about using the wiki instead?
