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 deter‐
       mines the maximum number of deleted items to keep cached during concur‐
       rent  searches.	 Once  the  limit is reached, new concurrent reads are
       blocked until all deleted items are flushed.

       MT-Level: Safe.

RETURN VALUE
       None.
