A Wait-Free Stack
Seep Goel ; Pooja Aggarwal ; Smruti R. Sarangi ;
Date 1 Oct 2015
AbstractIn this paper, we describe a novel algorithm to create a con- current wait-free stack. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first wait-free algorithm for a general purpose stack. In the past, researchers have proposed restricted wait-free implementations of stacks, lock-free implementations, and efficient universal constructions that can support wait-free stacks. The crux of our wait-free implementation is a fast pop operation that does not modify the stack top; instead, it walks down the stack till it finds a node that is unmarked. It marks it but does not delete it. Subsequently, it is lazily deleted by a cleanup operation. This operation keeps the size of the stack in check by not allowing the size of the stack to increase beyond a factor of W as compared to the actual size. All our operations are wait-free and linearizable.
