Recoverable Lock-Free Locks

Authors: Hagit Attiya, Panagiota Fatourou, Eleftherios Kosmas, and Yuanhao Wei

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 361, 29th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2025)

Abstract
This paper presents the first transformation that introduces both lock-freedom and recoverability. Our transformation starts with a lock-based implementation, and provides a recoverable, lock-free substitution to lock acquire and lock release operations. The transformation supports nested locks for generality and ensures recoverability without jeopardising the correctness of the lock-based implementation it is applied on.

PIPQ: Strict Insert-Optimized Concurrent Priority Queue

Authors: Olivia Grimes, Ahmed Hassan, Panagiota Fatourou, and Roberto Palmieri

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 356, 39th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2025)

Abstract
This paper presents PIPQ, a strict and linearizable concurrent priority queue whose design differs from existing solutions in literature because it focuses on enabling parallelism of insert operations as opposed to accelerating delete-min operations, as traditionally done. In a nutshell, PIPQ’s structure includes two levels: the worker level and the leader level. The worker level provides per-thread data structures enabling fast and parallel insertions. The leader level contains the highest priority elements in the priority queue and can thus serve delete-min operations. Our evaluation, which includes an exploration of different data access patterns, operation mixes, runtime settings, and an integration into a graph-based application, shows that PIPQ outperforms competitors in a variety of cases, especially with insert-dominant workloads.

Brief Announcement: Concurrent Double-Ended Priority Queues

Authors: Panagiota Fatourou, Eric Ruppert, and Ioannis Xiradakis

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 356, 39th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2025)

Abstract
This work provides the first concurrent implementation of a double-ended priority queue (DEPQ). We describe a general way to add an ExtractMax operation to any concurrent priority queue that already supports Insert and ExtractMin.

DULL: A Fast Scalable Detectable Unrolled Lock-Based Linked List

Authors: Ahmed Fahmy and Wojciech Golab

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 324, 28th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2024)

Abstract
Persistent memory (PM) has emerged as a promising technology that enables data structures to preserve their consistent state after recovering from system failures. Detectable data structures have been proposed to detect the response of the last operation of a crashed process. Various lock-free detectable and recoverable concurrent data structures have been developed in the literature. However, designing detectable lock-based structures is challenging due to the need to preserve the correctness properties of the underlying locks, such as mutual exclusion and deadlock-freedom, across failures. Therefore, lock-based detectable and persistent data structures are not as common as lock-free structures. In this work, we introduce DULL: a fast, scalable and Detectable Unrolled Lock-based Linked list. This paper presents the design and implementation of DULL, along with an evaluation of its recoverability and scalability. Experimental Results show that DULL is several-fold faster than the competition in all workloads that involve updates. Moreover, as opposed to some of the previous works, our algorithm is scalable when the multiprocessor is oversubscribed. DULL is a demonstration of the feasibility of using lock-based data structures with detectability in PM environments. We believe that DULL opens up new research directions for designing and analyzing detectable lock-based data structures.

The Teleportation Design Pattern for Hardware Transactional Memory

Authors: Nachshon Cohen, Maurice Herlihy, Erez Petrank, and Elias Wald

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 95, 21st International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2017)

Abstract
We identify a design pattern for concurrent data structures, called teleportation, that uses best- effort hardware transactional memory to speed up certain kinds of legacy concurrent data struc- tures. Teleportation unifies and explains several existing data structure designs, and it serves as the basis for novel approaches to reducing the memory traffic associated with fine-grained locking, and with hazard pointer management for memory reclamation.
