kevy_hash/lib.rs
1//! kevy-hash — fast, well-distributed hashing for kevy's single-trust-domain
2//! keyspace. Zero dependencies.
3//!
4//! std's `HashMap` is a hashbrown Swiss table (excellent — kevy keeps it) keyed
5//! by `SipHash-1-3` (DoS-resistant, but a tax a single-threaded-per-shard
6//! keyspace facing no adversarial cross-trust key collisions does not need).
7//! This crate supplies the hasher that table should use instead: an FxHash-style
8//! word-at-a-time absorb plus a murmur3 [`fmix64`] avalanche finalizer.
9//!
10//! Measured (via `kevy-store/examples/bench_keyspace.rs`): ~4× faster
11//! hashing, ~1.2–2.8× faster GET-hit, ~1.1–1.7× faster GET-miss than
12//! SipHash, with no clustering.
13//! The finalizer is **essential** — the bare Fx absorb (no `fmix64`) clusters
14//! 30–50× on low-entropy sequential keys like `"key:0".."key:99999"`.
15//!
16//! **Not DoS-resistant.** There is no random seed, so an attacker who can choose
17//! keys *and* observe timing could force collisions. kevy's keyspace lives
18//! inside one trust domain per shard, so this is the right trade; do not reuse
19//! this hasher for maps fed untrusted, adversarially-chosen keys across a trust
20//! boundary.
21//!
22//! ```
23//! use kevy_hash::FxHashMap;
24//!
25//! let mut m: FxHashMap<Vec<u8>, u64> = FxHashMap::default();
26//! m.insert(b"key".to_vec(), 1);
27//! assert_eq!(m.get(b"key".as_slice()), Some(&1));
28//! ```

63/// multiplication (one `mul`+`mulhi` on aarch64, one `mul` on x86_64),
64/// XORing the two halves of the product to mix top with bottom. The two
65/// streams are independent of each other in the bulk loop, so LLVM can
66/// schedule them on two ALU ports per cycle.
67///
68/// Lengths ≤ 16: XOR-only absorb of two reads (start + end), then a
69/// single `multiply_mix` of the two streams. The XOR-only absorb is fast
70/// because there's no ALU dependency between the two reads.
71///
72/// Lengths > 16: per-16-byte iteration, `s1 <- multiply_mix(s0 ^ x,

74/// all-zeros input from collapsing.
75///
76/// Final mix: `multiply_mix(s0, s1) ^ len` — folds length in so that
77/// `"abc"` and `"ab\0c"` hash differently (the XOR-only short path
78/// doesn't distinguish length-by-position without this).
79///
80/// Then `fmix64` to give us the anti-clustering avalanche we need (the
81/// rustc-hash design assumes its consumer mixes again; we don't, so we
82/// avalanche ourselves — same property as the legacy [`FxHasher`] path).
