The algorithm ensures that the occupied region of the // underlying array is logically continuous (can wraparound, but no stray // occupied elements). Owner operates on one end of this region, remote thread // operates on the other end. Synchronization between these threads // (potential consumption of the last element and take up of the last empty // element) happens by means of state variable in each element. States are: // empty, busy (in process of insertion of removal) and ready. Threads claim // elements (empty->busy and ready->busy transitions) by means of a CAS // operation. The finishing transition (busy->empty and busy->ready) are done // with plain store as the element is exclusively owned by the current thread. // // Note: we could permit only pointers as elements, then we would not need // separate state variable as null/non-null pointer value would serve as state, // but that would require malloc/free per operation for large, complex values // (and this is designed to store std::function<()>). template class RunQueue { public: RunQueue() : front_(0), back_(0) { // require power-of-two for fast masking eigen_assert((kSize & (kSize - 1)) == 0); eigen_assert(kSize > 2); // why would you do this? eigen_assert(kSize <= (64 << 10)); // leave enough space for counter for (unsigned i = 0; i < kSize; i++) array_[i].state.store(kEmpty, std::memory_order_relaxed); } ~RunQueue() { eigen_assert(Size() == 0); } // PushFront inserts w at the beginning of the queue. // If queue is full returns w, otherwise returns default-constructed Work.
