Yes. As Eric Dumazet pointed out, hash_64() is slower than hash_32() so we should be calling hash_32() if possible (if key size is 32bits long). This way we can call hash_min() without knowing the key size. See also the definition of hash_min() above. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
