Jason A. Donenfeld 1ae2324f73 siphash: implement HalfSipHash1-3 for hash tables
HalfSipHash, or hsiphash, is a shortened version of SipHash, which
generates 32-bit outputs using a weaker 64-bit key. It has *much* lower
security margins, and shouldn't be used for anything too sensitive, but
it could be used as a hashtable key function replacement, if the output
is never exposed, and if the security requirement is not too high.

The goal is to make this something that performance-critical jhash users
would be willing to use.

On 64-bit machines, HalfSipHash1-3 is slower than SipHash1-3, so we alias
SipHash1-3 to HalfSipHash1-3 on those systems.

64-bit x86_64:
[    0.509409] test_siphash:     SipHash2-4 cycles: 4049181
[    0.510650] test_siphash:     SipHash1-3 cycles: 2512884
[    0.512205] test_siphash: HalfSipHash1-3 cycles: 3429920
[    0.512904] test_siphash:    JenkinsHash cycles:  978267
So, we map hsiphash() -> SipHash1-3

32-bit x86:
[    0.509868] test_siphash:     SipHash2-4 cycles: 14812892
[    0.513601] test_siphash:     SipHash1-3 cycles:  9510710
[    0.515263] test_siphash: HalfSipHash1-3 cycles:  3856157
[    0.515952] test_siphash:    JenkinsHash cycles:  1148567
So, we map hsiphash() -> HalfSipHash1-3

hsiphash() is roughly 3 times slower than jhash(), but comes with a
considerable security improvement.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
