Subject: Hash table implementation

Hi,

This commit shows that jenkins hash function(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenkins_hash_function) is implemented in kernel :

commit 60d509c823cca21e77d537bd356785f7cfe8f0d1 Author: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@blackhole.kfki.hu> Date: Fri Dec 3 02:39:01 2010 +0000

The new jhash implementation <snip>

I could not find any good documentation describing how to use it. Only thing i could do is to read codes which uses it, like

Have a look in the include file it self linux-3.5.0/include/linux/ jhash.h every function is well documented there.

Thanks for the reply. I have looked through it. I guess the file serves well. I should pay attentions to comments more. Its just the guys i develop with, they put horrible comments, and i developed a habit of overlooking them.
