I’m searching for documentation on how to write MP/MC queue to be lock-free or even wait-free. I’m using .Net 4.0. Found a lot of C++ code, but I’m not very familiar with memory models, so there is a big chance I will introduce some bugs while porting to C#.
Why do you think you need lock-free queue? Have you tried using
ConcurrentQueue<T>, possibly enclosed within aBlockingCollection<T>?Writing multi-threaded code is hard. Writing lock-free code is even harder and you shouldn’t do it yourself unless you really have to.
