foldhash_portable/

lib.rs

//! This crate provides foldhash, a fast, non-cryptographic, minimally
//! DoS-resistant hashing algorithm designed for computational uses such as
//! hashmaps, bloom filters, count sketching, etc.
//!
//! When should you **not** use foldhash_portable:
//!
//! - You are afraid of people studying your long-running program's behavior
//!   to reverse engineer its internal random state and using this knowledge to
//!   create many colliding inputs for computational complexity attacks.
//!
//! - You expect foldhash to have a consistent output across versions or
//!   platforms, such as for persistent file formats or communication protocols.
//!   
//! - You are relying on foldhash's properties for any kind of security.
//!   Foldhash is **not appropriate for any cryptographic purpose**.
//!
//! Foldhash has two variants, one optimized for speed which is ideal for data
//! structures such as hash maps and bloom filters, and one optimized for
//! statistical quality which is ideal for algorithms such as
//! [HyperLogLog](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperLogLog) and
//! [MinHash](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MinHash).
//!
//! Foldhash can be used in a `#![no_std]` environment by disabling its default
//! `"std"` feature.
//!
//! # Usage
//!
//! The easiest way to use this crate with the standard library [`HashMap`] or
//! [`HashSet`] is to import them from `foldhash` instead, along with the
//! extension traits to make [`HashMap::new`] and [`HashMap::with_capacity`]
//! work out-of-the-box:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use foldhash_portable::{HashMap, HashMapExt};
//!
//! let mut hm = HashMap::new();
//! hm.insert(42, "hello");
//! ```
//!
//! You can also avoid the convenience types and do it manually by initializing
//! a [`RandomState`](fast::RandomState), for example if you are using a different hash map
//! implementation like [`hashbrown`](https://docs.rs/hashbrown/):
//!
//! ```rust
//! use hashbrown::HashMap;
//! use foldhash_portable::fast::RandomState;
//!
//! let mut hm = HashMap::with_hasher(RandomState::default());
//! hm.insert("foo", "bar");
//! ```
//!
//! The above methods are the recommended way to use foldhash_portable, which will
//! automatically generate a randomly generated hasher instance for you. If you
//! absolutely must have determinism you can use [`FixedState`](fast::FixedState)
//! instead, but note that this makes you trivially vulnerable to HashDoS
//! attacks and might lead to quadratic runtime when moving data from one
//! hashmap/set into another:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use std::collections::HashSet;
//! use foldhash_portable::fast::FixedState;
//!
//! let mut hm = HashSet::with_hasher(FixedState::with_seed(42));
//! hm.insert([1, 10, 100]);
//! ```
//!
//! If you rely on statistical properties of the hash for the correctness of
//! your algorithm, such as in [HyperLogLog](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperLogLog),
//! it is suggested to use the [`RandomState`](quality::RandomState)
//! or [`FixedState`](quality::FixedState) from the [`quality`] module instead
//! of the [`fast`] module. The latter is optimized purely for speed in hash
//! tables and has known statistical imperfections.
//!
//! Finally, you can also directly use the [`RandomState`](quality::RandomState)
//! or [`FixedState`](quality::FixedState) to manually hash items using the
//! [`BuildHasher`](std::hash::BuildHasher) trait:
//! ```rust
//! use std::hash::BuildHasher;
//! use foldhash_portable::quality::RandomState;
//!
//! let random_state = RandomState::default();
//! let hash = random_state.hash_one("hello world");
//! ```
//!
//! ## Seeding
//!
//! Foldhash relies on a single 8-byte per-hasher seed which should be ideally
//! be different from each instance to instance, and also a larger
//! [`SharedSeed`] which may be shared by many different instances.
//!
//! To reduce overhead, this [`SharedSeed`] is typically initialized once and
//! stored. To prevent each hashmap unnecessarily containing a reference to this
//! value there are three kinds of [`BuildHasher`](core::hash::BuildHasher)s
//! foldhash provides (both for [`fast`] and [`quality`]):
//!
//! 1. [`RandomState`](fast::RandomState), which always generates a
//!    random per-hasher seed and implicitly stores a reference to [`SharedSeed::global_random`].
//! 2. [`FixedState`](fast::FixedState), which by default uses a fixed
//!    per-hasher seed and implicitly stores a reference to [`SharedSeed::global_fixed`].
//! 3. [`SeedableRandomState`](fast::SeedableRandomState), which works like
//!    [`RandomState`](fast::RandomState) by default but can be seeded in any manner.
//!    This state must include an explicit reference to a [`SharedSeed`], and thus
//!    this struct is 16 bytes as opposed to just 8 bytes for the previous two.
//!
//! ## Features
//!
//! This crate has the following features:
//! - `nightly`, this feature improves string hashing performance
//! slightly using the nightly-only Rust feature
//! [`hasher_prefixfree_extras`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/96762),
//! - `std`, this enabled-by-default feature offers convenient aliases for `std`
//! containers, but can be turned off for `#![no_std]` crates.
//! - `portable`, this feature ensures hash output is identical across all
//! platforms (endianness, 32-bit vs 64-bit) for the same input. This comes
//! at a slight performance cost on big-endian and 32-bit platforms. Note that
//! `write_usize` hashes are still inherently platform-dependent since `usize`
//! has different widths on different platforms.
