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

30 * while (*p)
31 * hash = partial_name_hash(tolower(*p++), hash);
32 * hash = end_name_hash(hash);

34 * Although this is designed for bytes, fs/hfsplus/unicode.c
35 * abuses it to hash 16-bit values.
