9 * Routines for hashing strings of bytes to a 32-bit hash value.
10 *
11 * These hash functions are NOT GUARANTEED STABLE between kernel
12 * versions, architectures, or even repeated boots of the same kernel.
13 * (E.g. they may depend on boot-time hardware detection or be
14 * deliberately randomized.)
15 *
16 * They are also not intended to be secure against collisions caused by
17 * malicious inputs; much slower hash functions are required for that.
18 *
19 * They are optimized for pathname components, meaning short strings.
20 * Even if a majority of files have longer names, the dynamic profile of
21 * pathname components skews short due to short directory names.
22 * (E.g. /usr/lib/libsesquipedalianism.so.3.141.)

25/*
26 * Version 1: one byte at a time. Example of use:
27 *
28 * unsigned long hash = init_name_hash;
29 * while (*p)
30 * hash = partial_name_hash(tolower(*p++), hash);
31 * hash = end_name_hash(hash);
32 *
33 * Although this is designed for bytes, fs/hfsplus/unicode.c
34 * abuses it to hash 16-bit values.
