I've been looking through the docs and I was wondering if boost has any lock-free threadsafe containers. I know it's been brought up on the list before, but I was curious if anybody had a working implementation. If somebody is working on them, I'd like to lend a hand if possible.
I have some lock-free stack/queue code for x86/x64/ia64 in c++. It only works with vc++ 2008 intrinsics right now, and the x64 version is dependant on the windows memory manager if used on older CPUs. If people are interested in boostifying and porting it, I suppose we could do that.
