murmur3_32()

uint32 murmur3_32	(	const uchar *	key,
		size_t	len,
		uint32	seed
	)

Compute 32-bit version of MurmurHash3 hash for the key.

Parameters

key	Key for which hash value to be computed.
len	Key length.
seed	Seed for hash computation.

Note

WARNING! Since MurmurHash3 is known to be susceptible to "hash DoS" attack it should not be used in any situation where attacker has control over key being hashed and thus can cause performance problems due to degradation of hash lookup to linear list search.

Returns

Hash value for the key.
