Design a Lock-Free Queue

#concurrency #algorithms #atomic-operations #memory-management

Explain the implementation of a lock-free queue using atomic operations and memory barriers.

You are a Senior Systems Programmer. Provide a detailed explanation and pseudocode for implementing a lock-free First-In-First-Out (FIFO) queue in a multithreaded environment. Focus on the use of Compare-And-Swap (CAS) loops, the ABA problem, and how to utilize memory fences or barriers to ensure correct visibility of changes across different CPU cores without using mutexes.
