+/**
+ * A scalable {@link ConcurrentNavigableMap} implementation.  This
+ * class maintains a map in ascending key order, sorted according to
+ * the <i>natural order</i> for the key's class (see {@link
+ * Comparable}), or by the {@link Comparator} provided at creation
+ * time, depending on which constructor is used.
+ *
+ * <p>This class implements a concurrent variant of <a
+ * href="http://www.cs.umd.edu/~pugh/">SkipLists</a> providing
+ * expected average <i>log(n)</i> time cost for the
+ * <tt>containsKey</tt>, <tt>get</tt>, <tt>put</tt> and
+ * <tt>remove</tt> operations and their variants.  Insertion, removal,
+ * update, and access operations safely execute concurrently by
+ * multiple threads. Iterators are <i>weakly consistent</i>, returning
+ * elements reflecting the state of the map at some point at or since
+ * the creation of the iterator.  They do <em>not</em> throw {@link
+ * ConcurrentModificationException}, and may proceed concurrently with
+ * other operations. Ascending key ordered views and their iterators
+ * are faster than descending ones.
+ *
+ * <p>All <tt>Map.Entry</tt> pairs returned by methods in this class
+ * and its views represent snapshots of mappings at the time they were
+ * produced. They do <em>not</em> support the <tt>Entry.setValue</tt>
+ * method. (Note however that it is possible to change mappings in the
+ * associated map using <tt>put</tt>, <tt>putIfAbsent</tt>, or
+ * <tt>replace</tt>, depending on exactly which effect you need.)
+ *
+ * <p>Beware that, unlike in most collections, the <tt>size</tt>
+ * method is <em>not</em> a constant-time operation. Because of the
+ * asynchronous nature of these maps, determining the current number
+ * of elements requires a traversal of the elements.  Additionally,
+ * the bulk operations <tt>putAll</tt>, <tt>equals</tt>, and
+ * <tt>clear</tt> are <em>not</em> guaranteed to be performed
+ * atomically. For example, an iterator operating concurrently with a
+ * <tt>putAll</tt> operation might view only some of the added
+ * elements.
+ *
+ * <p>This class and its views and iterators implement all of the
+ * <em>optional</em> methods of the {@link Map} and {@link Iterator}
+ * interfaces. Like most other concurrent collections, this class does
+ * not permit the use of <tt>null</tt> keys or values because some
+ * null return values cannot be reliably distinguished from the
+ * absence of elements.

+     * The base lists use a variant of the HM linked ordered set
+     * algorithm. See Tim Harris, "A pragmatic implementation of
+     * non-blocking linked lists"
+     * http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~tlh20/publications.html and Maged
+     * Michael "High Performance Dynamic Lock-Free Hash Tables and
+     * List-Based Sets"
+     * http://www.research.ibm.com/people/m/michael/pubs.htm.  The
+     * basic idea in these lists is to mark the "next" pointers of
+     * deleted nodes when deleting to avoid conflicts with concurrent
+     * insertions, and when traversing to keep track of triples
+     * (predecessor, node, successor) in order to detect when and how
+     * to unlink these deleted nodes.
+     *
+     * Rather than using mark-bits to mark list deletions (which can
+     * be slow and space-intensive using AtomicMarkedReference), nodes
+     * use direct CAS'able next pointers.  On deletion, instead of
+     * marking a pointer, they splice in another node that can be
+     * thought of as standing for a marked pointer (indicating this by
+     * using otherwise impossible field values).  Using plain nodes
+     * acts roughly like "boxed" implementations of marked pointers,
+     * but uses new nodes only when nodes are deleted, not for every
+     * link.  This requires less space and supports faster
+     * traversal. Even if marked references were better supported by
+     * JVMs, traversal using this technique might still be faster
+     * because any search need only read ahead one more node than
+     * otherwise required (to check for trailing marker) rather than
+     * unmasking mark bits or whatever on each read.
+     *
+     * This approach maintains the essential property needed in the HM
+     * algorithm of changing the next-pointer of a deleted node so
+     * that any other CAS of it will fail, but implements the idea by
+     * changing the pointer to point to a different node, not by
+     * marking it.  While it would be possible to further squeeze
+     * space by defining marker nodes not to have key/value fields, it
+     * isn't worth the extra type-testing overhead.  The deletion
+     * markers are rarely encountered during traversal and are
+     * normally quickly garbage collected. (Note that this technique
+     * would not work well in systems without garbage collection.)
+     *
+     * In addition to using deletion markers, the lists also use
+     * nullness of value fields to indicate deletion, in a style
+     * similar to typical lazy-deletion schemes.  If a node's value is
+     * null, then it is considered logically deleted and ignored even
+     * though it is still reachable. This maintains proper control of
+     * concurrent replace vs delete operations -- an attempted replace
+     * must fail if a delete beat it by nulling field, and a delete
+     * must return the last non-null value held in the field. (Note:
+     * Null, rather than some special marker, is used for value fields
+     * here because it just so happens to mesh with the Map API
+     * requirement that method get returns null if there is no
+     * mapping, which allows nodes to remain concurrently readable
+     * even when deleted. Using any other marker value here would be
+     * messy at best.)
+     *
+     * Here's the sequence of events for a deletion of node n with
+     * predecessor b and successor f, initially:
+     *
+     *        +------+       +------+      +------+
+     *   ...  |   b  |------>|   n  |----->|   f  | ...
+     *        +------+       +------+      +------+
+     *
+     * 1. CAS n's value field from non-null to null.
+     *    From this point on, no public operations encountering
+     *    the node consider this mapping to exist. However, other
+     *    ongoing insertions and deletions might still modify
+     *    n's next pointer.
+     *
+     * 2. CAS n's next pointer to point to a new marker node.
+     *    From this point on, no other nodes can be appended to n.
+     *    which avoids deletion errors in CAS-based linked lists.
+     *
+     *        +------+       +------+      +------+       +------+
+     *   ...  |   b  |------>|   n  |----->|marker|------>|   f  | ...
+     *        +------+       +------+      +------+       +------+
+     *
+     * 3. CAS b's next pointer over both n and its marker.
+     *    From this point on, no new traversals will encounter n,
+     *    and it can eventually be GCed.
+     *        +------+                                    +------+
+     *   ...  |   b  |----------------------------------->|   f  | ...
+     *        +------+                                    +------+
+     *
+     * A failure at step 1 leads to simple retry due to a lost race
+     * with another operation. Steps 2-3 can fail because some other
+     * thread noticed during a traversal a node with null value and
+     * helped out by marking and/or unlinking.  This helping-out
+     * ensures that no thread can become stuck waiting for progress of
+     * the deleting thread.  The use of marker nodes slightly
+     * complicates helping-out code because traversals must track
+     * consistent reads of up to four nodes (b, n, marker, f), not
+     * just (b, n, f), although the next field of a marker is
+     * immutable, and once a next field is CAS'ed to point to a
+     * marker, it never again changes, so this requires less care.
+     *
+     * Skip lists add indexing to this scheme, so that the base-level
+     * traversals start close to the locations being found, inserted
+     * or deleted -- usually base level traversals only traverse a few
+     * nodes. This doesn't change the basic algorithm except for the
+     * need to make sure base traversals start at predecessors (here,
+     * b) that are not (structurally) deleted, otherwise retrying
+     * after processing the deletion.
+     *
+     * Index levels are maintained as lists with volatile next fields,
+     * using CAS to link and unlink.  Races are allowed in index-list
+     * operations that can (rarely) fail to link in a new index node
+     * or delete one. (We can't do this of course for data nodes.)
+     * However, even when this happens, the index lists remain sorted,
+     * so correctly serve as indices.  This can impact performance,
+     * but since skip lists are probabilistic anyway, the net result
+     * is that under contention, the effective "p" value may be lower
+     * than its nominal value. And race windows are kept small enough
+     * that in practice these failures are rare, even under a lot of
+     * contention.
+     *
+     * The fact that retries (for both base and index lists) are
+     * relatively cheap due to indexing allows some minor
+     * simplifications of retry logic. Traversal restarts are
+     * performed after most "helping-out" CASes. This isn't always
+     * strictly necessary, but the implicit backoffs tend to help
+     * reduce other downstream failed CAS's enough to outweigh restart
+     * cost.  This worsens the worst case, but seems to improve even
+     * highly contended cases.
+     *
+     * Unlike most skip-list implementations, index insertion and
+     * deletion here require a separate traversal pass occuring after
+     * the base-level action, to add or remove index nodes.  This adds
+     * to single-threaded overhead, but improves contended
+     * multithreaded performance by narrowing interference windows,
+     * and allows deletion to ensure that all index nodes will be made
+     * unreachable upon return from a public remove operation, thus
+     * avoiding unwanted garbage retention. This is more important
+     * here than in some other data structures because we cannot null
+     * out node fields referencing user keys since they might still be
+     * read by other ongoing traversals.
+     *
+     * Indexing uses skip list parameters that maintain good search
+     * performance while using sparser-than-usual indices: The
+     * hardwired parameters k=1, p=0.5 (see method randomLevel) mean
+     * that about one-quarter of the nodes have indices. Of those that
+     * do, half have one level, a quarter have two, and so on (see
+     * Pugh's Skip List Cookbook, sec 3.4).  The expected total space
+     * requirement for a map is slightly less than for the current
+     * implementation of java.util.TreeMap.
+     *
+     * Changing the level of the index (i.e, the height of the
+     * tree-like structure) also uses CAS. The head index has initial
+     * level/height of one. Creation of an index with height greater
+     * than the current level adds a level to the head index by
+     * CAS'ing on a new top-most head. To maintain good performance
+     * after a lot of removals, deletion methods heuristically try to
+     * reduce the height if the topmost levels appear to be empty.
+     * This may encounter races in which it possible (but rare) to
+     * reduce and "lose" a level just as it is about to contain an
+     * index (that will then never be encountered). This does no
+     * structural harm, and in practice appears to be a better option
+     * than allowing unrestrained growth of levels.
+     *
+     * The code for all this is more verbose than you'd like. Most
+     * operations entail locating an element (or position to insert an
+     * element). The code to do this can't be nicely factored out
+     * because subsequent uses require a snapshot of predecessor
+     * and/or successor and/or value fields which can't be returned
+     * all at once, at least not without creating yet another object
+     * to hold them -- creating such little objects is an especially
+     * bad idea for basic internal search operations because it adds
+     * to GC overhead.  (This is one of the few times I've wished Java
+     * had macros.) Instead, some traversal code is interleaved within
+     * insertion and removal operations.  The control logic to handle
+     * all the retry conditions is sometimes twisty. Most search is
+     * broken into 2 parts. findPredecessor() searches index nodes
+     * only, returning a base-level predecessor of the key. findNode()
+     * finishes out the base-level search. Even with this factoring,
+     * there is a fair amount of near-duplication of code to handle
+     * variants.
+     *
+     * For explanation of algorithms sharing at least a couple of
+     * features with this one, see Mikhail Fomitchev's thesis
+     * (http://www.cs.yorku.ca/~mikhail/), Keir Fraser's thesis
+     * (http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/kaf24/), and Hakan Sundell's
+     * thesis (http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~phs/).
+     *
+     * Given the use of tree-like index nodes, you might wonder why
+     * this doesn't use some kind of search tree instead, which would
+     * support somewhat faster search operations. The reason is that
+     * there are no known efficient lock-free insertion and deletion
+     * algorithms for search trees. The immutability of the "down"
+     * links of index nodes (as opposed to mutable "left" fields in
+     * true trees) makes this tractable using only CAS operations.

+/**
+ * A {@link SortedMap} extended with navigation methods returning the
+ * closest matches for given search targets. Methods
+ * <tt>lowerEntry</tt>, <tt>floorEntry</tt>, <tt>ceilingEntry</tt>,
+ * and <tt>higherEntry</tt> return <tt>Map.Entry</tt> objects
+ * associated with keys respectively less than, less than or equal,
+ * greater than or equal, and greater than a given key, returning
+ * <tt>null</tt> if there is no such key.  Similarly, methods
+ * <tt>lowerKey</tt>, <tt>floorKey</tt>, <tt>ceilingKey</tt>, and
+ * <tt>higherKey</tt> return only the associated keys. All of these
+ * methods are designed for locating, not traversing entries.
+ *
+ * <p>A <tt>NavigableMap</tt> may be viewed and traversed in either
+ * ascending or descending key order.  The <tt>Map</tt> methods
+ * <tt>keySet</tt> and <tt>entrySet</tt> return ascending views, and
+ * the additional methods <tt>descendingKeySet</tt> and
+ * <tt>descendingEntrySet</tt> return descending views. The
+ * performance of ascending traversals is likely to be faster than
+ * descending traversals.  Notice that it is possible to perform
+ * subrannge traversals in either direction using <tt>SubMap</tt>.
+ *
+ * <p>This interface additionally defines methods <tt>firstEntry</tt>,
+ * <tt>pollFirstEntry</tt>, <tt>lastEntry</tt>, and
+ * <tt>pollLastEntry</tt> that return and/or remove the least and
+ * greatest mappings, if any exist, else returning <tt>null</tt>.
+ *
+ * <p> Implementations of entry-returning methods are expected to
+ * return <tt>Map.Entry</tt> pairs representing snapshots of mappings
+ * at the time they were produced, and thus generally do <em>not</em>
+ * support the optional <tt>Entry.setValue</tt> method. Note however
+ * that it is possible to change mappings in the associated map using
+ * method <tt>put</tt>.
