[PATCH 07/11] libihash: use an integer hash function on the keys


From: Justus Winter
Subject: [PATCH 07/11] libihash: use an integer hash function on the keys
Date: Mon, 12 May 2014 12:05:45 +0200

Use an integer hash function to derive the index from the key.  This
should reduce the number of collisions.

* libihash/ihash.c (hash_int32): New function.
(find_index): Use hash_int32 on the key to derive the index.
(add_one): Likewise.
