Provided by: clearsilver-dev_0.10.5-3_amd64 bug

NAME

       skipNewList  - create a skip list.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <util/skiplist.h>

       NEOERR *skipNewList(skipList *skip, int threaded, int root, int maxLevel,
                            int flushLimit, skipFreeValue freeValue, void *ctx);

ARGUMENTS

       threaded - true if list should be thread-safe.
       root - performance parameter (see above).
       maxLevel - performance parameter (see above).
       flushLimit - max deleted items to keep cached before
       forcing a flush.
       freeValue - callback made whenever a value is flushed.
       ctx - context to pass to <freeValue>.

DESCRIPTION

       Returns  a  new  skip  list.   If  <threaded>  is true, list is multi-thread safe.  <root> and <maxLevel>
       determine performance and expected size (see discussion above).  <flushLimit> is for threaded  lists  and
       determines the maximum number of deleted items to keep cached during concurrent searches.  Once the limit
       is reached, new concurrent reads are blocked until all deleted items are flushed.

       MT-Level: Safe.

RETURN VALUE

       None.
