A generic Skiplist container C implementation, lock-free for both multiple readers and writers. It can be used as a set or a map, containing any type of data.

It basically uses STL atomic variables with C++ compiler, but they can be switched to built-in GCC atomic operations when we compile it with pure C compiler.

This repository also includes STL-style lock-free set and map containers, based on Skiplist implementation.
