How To Install libreaderwriterqueue-dev on Kali Linux

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install libreaderwriterqueue-dev on Kali Linux.

What is libreaderwriterqueue-dev

libreaderwriterqueue-dev is:

This package provides a lock-free queue for C++. It only supports a two-thread use case (one consuming, and one producing). The threads can’t switch roles, though you could use this queue completely from a single thread if you wish (but that would sort of defeat the purpose!).

Features:

• Blazing fast
• Compatible with C++11 (supports moving objects instead of making copies)
• Fully generic (templated container of any type) – just like std::queue, you never need to allocate memory for elements yourself (which saves you the hassle of writing a lock-free memory manager to hold the elements you’re queueing)
• Allocates memory up front, in contiguous blocks
• Provides a try_enqueue method which is guaranteed never to allocate memory (the queue starts with an initial capacity)
• Also provides an enqueue method which can dynamically grow the size of the queue as needed
• Also provides try_emplace/emplace convenience methods
• Has a blocking version with wait_dequeue
• Completely “wait-free” (no compare-and-swap loop). Enqueue and dequeue are always O(1) (not counting memory allocation)
• On x86, the memory barriers compile down to no-ops, meaning enqueue and dequeue are just a simple series of loads and stores (and branches)
