      * *** Overview of Dual Queues with Slack ***

      *

      * Dual Queues, introduced by Scherer and Scott

      * (http://www.cs.rice.edu/~wns1/papers/2004-DISC-DDS.pdf) are

      * (linked) queues in which nodes may represent either data or

      * requests.  When a thread tries to enqueue a data node, but

      * encounters a request node, it instead "matches" and removes it;

      * and vice versa for enqueuing requests. Blocking Dual Queues

      * arrange that threads enqueuing unmatched requests block until

      * other threads provide the match. Dual Synchronous Queues (see

      * Scherer, Lea, & Scott

      * http://www.cs.rochester.edu/u/scott/papers/2009_Scherer_CACM_SSQ.pdf)

      * additionally arrange that threads enqueuing unmatched data also

      * block.  Dual Transfer Queues support all of these modes, as

      * dictated by callers.

      *

      * A FIFO dual queue may be implemented using a variation of the

      * Michael & Scott (M&S) lock-free queue algorithm

      * (http://www.cs.rochester.edu/u/scott/papers/1996_PODC_queues.pdf).

      * It maintains two pointer fields, "head", pointing to a

      * (matched) node that in turn points to the first actual

      * (unmatched) queue node (or null if empty); and "tail" that

      * points to the last node on the queue (or again null if

      * empty). For example, here is a possible queue with four data

      * elements:

      *

      *  head                tail

      *    |                   |

      *    v                   v

      *    M -> U -> U -> U -> U

      *

      * The M&S queue algorithm is known to be prone to scalability and

      * overhead limitations when maintaining (via CAS) these head and

      * tail pointers. This has led to the development of

      * contention-reducing variants such as elimination arrays (see

      * Moir et al http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1074013) and

      * optimistic back pointers (see Ladan-Mozes & Shavit

      * http://people.csail.mit.edu/edya/publications/OptimisticFIFOQueue-journal.pdf).

      * However, the nature of dual queues enables a simpler tactic for

      * improving M&S-style implementations when dual-ness is needed.

      *

      * In a dual queue, each node must atomically maintain its match

      * status. While there are other possible variants, we implement

      * this here as: for a data-mode node, matching entails CASing an

      * "item" field from a non-null data value to null upon match, and

      * vice-versa for request nodes, CASing from null to a data

      * value. (Note that the linearization properties of this style of

      * queue are easy to verify -- elements are made available by

      * linking, and unavailable by matching.) Compared to plain M&S

      * queues, this property of dual queues requires one additional

      * successful atomic operation per enq/deq pair. But it also

      * enables lower cost variants of queue maintenance mechanics. (A

      * variation of this idea applies even for non-dual queues that

      * support deletion of interior elements, such as

      * j.u.c.ConcurrentLinkedQueue.)

      *

      * Once a node is matched, its match status can never again

      * change.  We may thus arrange that the linked list of them

      * contain a prefix of zero or more matched nodes, followed by a

      * suffix of zero or more unmatched nodes. (Note that we allow

      * both the prefix and suffix to be zero length, which in turn

      * means that we do not use a dummy header.)  If we were not

      * concerned with either time or space efficiency, we could

      * correctly perform enqueue and dequeue operations by traversing

      * from a pointer to the initial node; CASing the item of the

      * first unmatched node on match and CASing the next field of the

      * trailing node on appends. (Plus some special-casing when

      * initially empty).  While this would be a terrible idea in

      * itself, it does have the benefit of not requiring ANY atomic

      * updates on head/tail fields.

      *

      * We introduce here an approach that lies between the extremes of

      * never versus always updating queue (head and tail) pointers.

      * This offers a tradeoff between sometimes requiring extra

      * traversal steps to locate the first and/or last unmatched

      * nodes, versus the reduced overhead and contention of fewer

      * updates to queue pointers. For example, a possible snapshot of

      * a queue is:

      *

      *  head           tail

      *    |              |

      *    v              v

      *    M -> M -> U -> U -> U -> U

      *

      * The best value for this "slack" (the targeted maximum distance

      * between the value of "head" and the first unmatched node, and

      * similarly for "tail") is an empirical matter. We have found

      * that using very small constants in the range of 1-3 work best

      * over a range of platforms. Larger values introduce increasing

      * costs of cache misses and risks of long traversal chains, while

      * smaller values increase CAS contention and overhead.

      *

      * Dual queues with slack differ from plain M&S dual queues by

      * virtue of only sometimes updating head or tail pointers when

      * matching, appending, or even traversing nodes; in order to

      * maintain a targeted slack.  The idea of "sometimes" may be

      * operationalized in several ways. The simplest is to use a

      * per-operation counter incremented on each traversal step, and

      * to try (via CAS) to update the associated queue pointer

      * whenever the count exceeds a threshold. Another, that requires

      * more overhead, is to use random number generators to update

      * with a given probability per traversal step.

      *

      * In any strategy along these lines, because CASes updating

      * fields may fail, the actual slack may exceed targeted

      * slack. However, they may be retried at any time to maintain

      * targets.  Even when using very small slack values, this

      * approach works well for dual queues because it allows all

      * operations up to the point of matching or appending an item

      * (hence potentially allowing progress by another thread) to be

      * read-only, thus not introducing any further contention. As

      * described below, we implement this by performing slack

      * maintenance retries only after these points.

      *

      * As an accompaniment to such techniques, traversal overhead can

      * be further reduced without increasing contention of head

      * pointer updates: Threads may sometimes shortcut the "next" link

      * path from the current "head" node to be closer to the currently

      * known first unmatched node, and similarly for tail. Again, this

      * may be triggered with using thresholds or randomization.

      *

      * These ideas must be further extended to avoid unbounded amounts

      * of costly-to-reclaim garbage caused by the sequential "next"

      * links of nodes starting at old forgotten head nodes: As first

      * described in detail by Boehm

      * (http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?doid=503272.503282) if a GC

      * delays noticing that any arbitrarily old node has become

      * garbage, all newer dead nodes will also be unreclaimed.

      * (Similar issues arise in non-GC environments.)  To cope with

      * this in our implementation, upon CASing to advance the head

      * pointer, we set the "next" link of the previous head to point

      * only to itself; thus limiting the length of connected dead lists.

      * (We also take similar care to wipe out possibly garbage

      * retaining values held in other Node fields.)  However, doing so

      * adds some further complexity to traversal: If any "next"

      * pointer links to itself, it indicates that the current thread

      * has lagged behind a head-update, and so the traversal must

      * continue from the "head".  Traversals trying to find the

      * current tail starting from "tail" may also encounter

      * self-links, in which case they also continue at "head".

      *

      * It is tempting in slack-based scheme to not even use CAS for

      * updates (similarly to Ladan-Mozes & Shavit). However, this

      * cannot be done for head updates under the above link-forgetting

      * mechanics because an update may leave head at a detached node.

      * And while direct writes are possible for tail updates, they

      * increase the risk of long retraversals, and hence long garbage

      * chains, which can be much more costly than is worthwhile

      * considering that the cost difference of performing a CAS vs

      * write is smaller when they are not triggered on each operation

      * (especially considering that writes and CASes equally require

      * additional GC bookkeeping ("write barriers") that are sometimes

      * more costly than the writes themselves because of contention).

      *

      * *** Overview of implementation ***

      *

      * We use a threshold-based approach to updates, with a slack

      * threshold of two -- that is, we update head/tail when the

      * current pointer appears to be two or more steps away from the

      * first/last node. The slack value is hard-wired: a path greater

      * than one is naturally implemented by checking equality of

      * traversal pointers except when the list has only one element,

      * in which case we keep slack threshold at one. Avoiding tracking

      * explicit counts across method calls slightly simplifies an

      * already-messy implementation. Using randomization would

      * probably work better if there were a low-quality dirt-cheap

      * per-thread one available, but even ThreadLocalRandom is too

      * heavy for these purposes.

      *

      * With such a small slack threshold value, it is not worthwhile

      * to augment this with path short-circuiting (i.e., unsplicing

      * interior nodes) except in the case of cancellation/removal (see

      * below).

      *

      * We allow both the head and tail fields to be null before any

      * nodes are enqueued; initializing upon first append.  This

      * simplifies some other logic, as well as providing more

      * efficient explicit control paths instead of letting JVMs insert

      * implicit NullPointerExceptions when they are null.  While not

      * currently fully implemented, we also leave open the possibility

      * of re-nulling these fields when empty (which is complicated to

      * arrange, for little benefit.)

      *

      * All enqueue/dequeue operations are handled by the single method

      * "xfer" with parameters indicating whether to act as some form

      * of offer, put, poll, take, or transfer (each possibly with

      * timeout). The relative complexity of using one monolithic

      * method outweighs the code bulk and maintenance problems of

      * using separate methods for each case.

      *

      * Operation consists of up to three phases. The first is

      * implemented within method xfer, the second in tryAppend, and

      * the third in method awaitMatch.

      *

      * 1. Try to match an existing node

      *

      *    Starting at head, skip already-matched nodes until finding

      *    an unmatched node of opposite mode, if one exists, in which

      *    case matching it and returning, also if necessary updating

      *    head to one past the matched node (or the node itself if the

      *    list has no other unmatched nodes). If the CAS misses, then

      *    a loop retries advancing head by two steps until either

      *    success or the slack is at most two. By requiring that each

      *    attempt advances head by two (if applicable), we ensure that

      *    the slack does not grow without bound. Traversals also check

      *    if the initial head is now off-list, in which case they

      *    start at the new head.

      *

      *    If no candidates are found and the call was untimed

      *    poll/offer, (argument "how" is NOW) return.

      *

      * 2. Try to append a new node (method tryAppend)

      *

      *    Starting at current tail pointer, find the actual last node

      *    and try to append a new node (or if head was null, establish

      *    the first node). Nodes can be appended only if their

      *    predecessors are either already matched or are of the same

      *    mode. If we detect otherwise, then a new node with opposite

      *    mode must have been appended during traversal, so we must

      *    restart at phase 1. The traversal and update steps are

      *    otherwise similar to phase 1: Retrying upon CAS misses and

      *    checking for staleness.  In particular, if a self-link is

      *    encountered, then we can safely jump to a node on the list

      *    by continuing the traversal at current head.

      *

      *    On successful append, if the call was ASYNC, return.

      *

      * 3. Await match or cancellation (method awaitMatch)

      *

      *    Wait for another thread to match node; instead cancelling if

      *    the current thread was interrupted or the wait timed out. On

      *    multiprocessors, we use front-of-queue spinning: If a node

      *    appears to be the first unmatched node in the queue, it

      *    spins a bit before blocking. In either case, before blocking

      *    it tries to unsplice any nodes between the current "head"

      *    and the first unmatched node.

      *

      *    Front-of-queue spinning vastly improves performance of

      *    heavily contended queues. And so long as it is relatively

      *    brief and "quiet", spinning does not much impact performance

      *    of less-contended queues.  During spins threads check their

      *    interrupt status and generate a thread-local random number

      *    to decide to occasionally perform a Thread.yield. While

      *    yield has underdefined specs, we assume that might it help,

      *    and will not hurt in limiting impact of spinning on busy

      *    systems.  We also use smaller (1/2) spins for nodes that are

      *    not known to be front but whose predecessors have not

      *    blocked -- these "chained" spins avoid artifacts of

      *    front-of-queue rules which otherwise lead to alternating

      *    nodes spinning vs blocking. Further, front threads that

      *    represent phase changes (from data to request node or vice

      *    versa) compared to their predecessors receive additional

      *    chained spins, reflecting longer paths typically required to

      *    unblock threads during phase changes.

      *

      *

      * ** Unlinking removed interior nodes **

      *

      * In addition to minimizing garbage retention via self-linking

      * described above, we also unlink removed interior nodes. These

      * may arise due to timed out or interrupted waits, or calls to

      * remove(x) or Iterator.remove.  Normally, given a node that was

      * at one time known to be the predecessor of some node s that is

      * to be removed, we can unsplice s by CASing the next field of

      * its predecessor if it still points to s (otherwise s must

      * already have been removed or is now offlist). But there are two

      * situations in which we cannot guarantee to make node s

      * unreachable in this way: (1) If s is the trailing node of list

      * (i.e., with null next), then it is pinned as the target node

      * for appends, so can only be removed later after other nodes are

      * appended. (2) We cannot necessarily unlink s given a

      * predecessor node that is matched (including the case of being

      * cancelled): the predecessor may already be unspliced, in which

      * case some previous reachable node may still point to s.

      * (For further explanation see Herlihy & Shavit "The Art of

      * Multiprocessor Programming" chapter 9).  Although, in both

      * cases, we can rule out the need for further action if either s

      * or its predecessor are (or can be made to be) at, or fall off

      * from, the head of list.

      *

      * Without taking these into account, it would be possible for an

      * unbounded number of supposedly removed nodes to remain

      * reachable.  Situations leading to such buildup are uncommon but

      * can occur in practice; for example when a series of short timed

      * calls to poll repeatedly time out but never otherwise fall off

      * the list because of an untimed call to take at the front of the

      * queue.

      *

      * When these cases arise, rather than always retraversing the

      * entire list to find an actual predecessor to unlink (which

      * won't help for case (1) anyway), we record a conservative

      * estimate of possible unsplice failures (in "sweepVotes").

      * We trigger a full sweep when the estimate exceeds a threshold

      * ("SWEEP_THRESHOLD") indicating the maximum number of estimated

      * removal failures to tolerate before sweeping through, unlinking

      * cancelled nodes that were not unlinked upon initial removal.

      * We perform sweeps by the thread hitting threshold (rather than

      * background threads or by spreading work to other threads)

      * because in the main contexts in which removal occurs, the

      * caller is already timed-out, cancelled, or performing a

      * potentially O(n) operation (e.g. remove(x)), none of which are

      * time-critical enough to warrant the overhead that alternatives

      * would impose on other threads.

      *

      * Because the sweepVotes estimate is conservative, and because

      * nodes become unlinked "naturally" as they fall off the head of

      * the queue, and because we allow votes to accumulate even while

      * sweeps are in progress, there are typically significantly fewer

      * such nodes than estimated.  Choice of a threshold value

      * balances the likelihood of wasted effort and contention, versus

      * providing a worst-case bound on retention of interior nodes in

      * quiescent queues. The value defined below was chosen

      * empirically to balance these under various timeout scenarios.

      *

      * Note that we cannot self-link unlinked interior nodes during

      * sweeps. However, the associated garbage chains terminate when

      * some successor ultimately falls off the head of the list and is

      * self-linked.
