* Hazard pointer entry for a single thread. Holds the actual guards that
* determine if the current thread is about to use the guarded pointer.
* Guarded pointers are protected and not deleted.
* Hazard pointers are a wait-free memory reclamation scheme for lock-free
* algorithms. Loosely speaking, they act as garbage collector. The release of
* objects contained within the memory, managed by the hazard pointer class, is
* intercepted and possibly delayed to avoid concurrency bugs.
*
* Before accessing an object, threads announce their intention to do so (i.e.
* the intention to dereference the respective pointer) to the hazard pointer
* class. This is called guarding. From now on, the hazard pointer class will
* prohibit the release or reuse of the guarded object. This is necessary, to
* assure that the object is not released or reused while it is accessed and to
* assure that it has not unnoticed changed (effectively avoiding the ABA
* problem).
*
* Note that after guarding an object, a consecutive check that the object (i.e.
* its pointer) is still valid is necessary; the object release could already
* have been started when guarding the object. Guarding is repeated, until this
* check eventually succeeds. Note that this "guard-and-check" loop makes the
* usage of the hazard pointer class lock-free, even though its implementation
* is wait-free.
*
* Internally, guarding is realized by providing each thread slots, where
* pointers can be placed that should not be freed (so called guards). When
* trying to release an object, it is checked if the object's pointer is
* guarded, and if so this object is not released, but instead put into a
* retired list for later release, when all guards for this object have been
* removed.
*
* In contrast to the original implementation, our implementation consumes only
* fixed-size memory. Note that the number of threads accessing the hazard
* pointer object accounts quadratic for the memory consumption: managed objects
* are provided from outside and the number of accessors accounts quadric for
* the minimum count of those objects.
*
* Moreover, the retired list for this thread is contained. It determines
* the pointers that have been allocated from this thread, but are not used
* anymore by this thread. However, another thread could have a guard on it,
* so the pointer cannot be deleted immediately.
* Also in contrast to the original implementation, we do not provide a HelpScan
* functionality, which gives threads the possibility, to not participate in the
* garbage collection anymore: other threads will help to clean-up the objects
* protected by the exiting thread. The reason is, that the only use-case would
* be a crashing thread, not participating anymore. However, as the thread has
* to signal its exit himself, this is not possible to realize anyways. In the
* end, it is still guaranteed that all memory is properly returned (in the
* destructor).
*
* For the scan operation, the intersection of the guarded pointers from all
* threads and the retired list has to be computed. For this computation, we
* need thread local temporary lists which are also contained here.
* Additionally, the original implementation holds a threshold, which determines
* when objects shall be freed. In this implementation, we free whenever it is
* possibly to do so, as we want to keep the memory footprint as low as
* possible. We also don't see a performance drop in the current algorithms that
* are using hazard pointers, when not using a threshold.
*
* \tparam GuardType The type of guard, usually a pointer.
* \tparam GuardType the type of the guards. Usually the pointer type of some
* object to protect.
