J. Bernstein hashing algorithm appeared here http://cr.yp.to/cdb/cdb.txt and informally known as DJB33XX - DJB's 33 Times Xor. Java uses DJB31XA, that is, 31 Times Add. The original algorithm was a loop around (h << 5) + h ^ c (which is indeed h*33 ^ c); it was then changed to (h << 5) - h ^ c (so h*31^c: DJB31XX), and the XOR changed to a sum: (h << 5) - h + c (DJB31XA), which can save some assembly instructions. Still, we can avoid writing the multiplication as "(h << 5) - h" -- the compiler will turn it into a shift and an addition anyway (for instance, gcc 4.4 does that even at -O0). */ #if QT_COMPILER_SUPPORTS_HERE(SSE4_2) static inline bool hasFastCrc32() { return qCpuHasFeature(SSE4_2); } template QT_FUNCTION_TARGET(SSE4_2) static uint crc32(const Char *ptr, size_t len, uint h) { // The CRC32 instructions from Nehalem calculate a 32-bit CRC32 checksum const uchar *p = reinterpret_cast(ptr); const uchar *const e = p + (len * sizeof(Char)); # ifdef Q_PROCESSOR_X86_64 // The 64-bit instruction still calculates only 32-bit, but without this // variable GCC 4.9 still tries to clear the high bits on every loop qulonglong h2 = h; p += 8; for ( ; p <= e; p += 8) h2 = _mm_crc32_u64(h2, qFromUnaligned(p - 8)); h = h2; p -= 8; len = e - p; if (len & 4) { h = _mm_crc32_u32(h, qFromUnaligned(p)); p += 4; } # else p += 4; for ( ; p <= e; p += 4) h = _mm_crc32_u32(h, qFromUnaligned(p - 4)); p -= 4; len = e - p; # endif if (len & 2) { h = _mm_crc32_u16(h, qFromUnaligned(p)); p += 2; } if (sizeof(Char) == 1 && len & 1) h = _mm_crc32_u8(h, *p); return h; } #elif defined(__ARM_FEATURE_CRC32) static inline bool hasFastCrc32() { return qCpuHasFeature(CRC32); } template #if defined(Q_PROCESSOR_ARM_64) QT_FUNCTION_TARGET(CRC32) #endif static uint crc32(const Char *ptr, size_t len, uint h) { // The crc32[whbd] instructions on Aarch64/Aarch32 calculate a 32-bit CRC32 checksum const uchar *p = reinterpret_cast(ptr); const uchar *const e = p + (len * sizeof(Char)); #ifndef __ARM_FEATURE_UNALIGNED if (Q_UNLIKELY(reinterpret_cast(p) & 7)) { if ((sizeof(Char) == 1) && (reinterpret_cast(p) & 1) && (e - p > 0)) { h = __crc32b(h, *p); ++p; } if ((reinterpret_cast(p) & 2) && (e >= p + 2)) { h = __crc32h(h, *reinterpret_cast(p)); p += 2; } if ((reinterpret_cast(p) & 4) && (e >= p + 4)) { h = __crc32w(h, *reinterpret_cast(p)); p += 4; } } #endif for ( ; p + 8 <= e; p += 8) h = __crc32d(h, *reinterpret_cast(p)); len = e - p; if (len == 0) return h; if (len & 4) { h = __crc32w(h, *reinterpret_cast(p)); p += 4; } if (len & 2) { h = __crc32h(h, *reinterpret_cast(p)); p += 2; } if (sizeof(Char) == 1 && len & 1) h = __crc32b(h, *p); return h; } #else static inline bool hasFastCrc32() { return false; } static uint crc32(...) { Q_UNREACHABLE(); return 0; } #endif static inline uint hash(const uchar *p, size_t len, uint seed) noexcept { uint h = seed; if (seed && hasFastCrc32()) return crc32(p, len, h); for (size_t i = 0; i < len; ++i) h = 31 * h + p[i]; return h; } uint qHashBits(const void *p, size_t len, uint seed) noexcept { return hash(static_cast(p), int(len), seed); } static inline uint hash(const QChar *p, size_t len, uint seed) noexcept { uint h = seed; if (seed && hasFastCrc32()) return crc32(p, len, h); for (size_t i = 0; i < len; ++i) h = 31 * h + p[i].unicode(); return h; } uint qHash(const QByteArray &key, uint seed) noexcept { return hash(reinterpret_cast(key.constData()), size_t(key.size()), seed); } #if QT_STRINGVIEW_LEVEL < 2 uint qHash(const QString &key, uint seed) noexcept { return hash(key.unicode(), size_t(key.size()), seed); } uint qHash(const QStringRef &key, uint seed) noexcept { return hash(key.unicode(), size_t(key.size()), seed); } #endif uint qHash(QStringView key, uint seed) noexcept { return hash(key.data(), key.size(), seed); } uint qHash(const QBitArray &bitArray, uint seed) noexcept { int m = bitArray.d.size() - 1; uint result = hash(reinterpret_cast(bitArray.d.constData()), size_t(qMax(0, m)), seed); // deal with the last 0 to 7 bits manually, because we can't trust that // the padding is initialized to 0 in bitArray.d int n = bitArray.size(); if (n & 0x7) result = ((result << 4) + bitArray.d.at(m)) & ((1 << n) - 1); return result; } uint qHash(QLatin1String key, uint seed) noexcept { return hash(reinterpret_cast(key.data()), size_t(key.size()), seed); } /*! \internal Creates the QHash random seed from various sources.

It stores (key, value) pairs and provides very fast lookup of the value associated with a key. QHash provides very similar functionality to QMap. The differences are: \list \li QHash provides faster lookups than QMap. (See \l{Algorithmic Complexity} for details.) \li When iterating over a QMap, the items are always sorted by key. With QHash, the items are arbitrarily ordered. \li The key type of a QMap must provide operator<(). The key type of a QHash must provide operator==() and a global hash function called qHash() (see \l{qHash}). \endlist Here's an example QHash with QString keys and \c int values: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 0 To insert a (key, value) pair into the hash, you can use operator[](): \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 1 This inserts the following three (key, value) pairs into the QHash: ("one", 1), ("three", 3), and ("seven", 7). Another way to insert items into the hash is to use insert(): \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 2 To look up a value, use operator[]() or value(): \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 3 If there is no item with the specified key in the hash, these functions return a \l{default-constructed value}. If you want to check whether the hash contains a particular key, use contains(): \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 4 There is also a value() overload that uses its second argument as a default value if there is no item with the specified key: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 5 In general, we recommend that you use contains() and value() rather than operator[]() for looking up a key in a hash. The reason is that operator[]() silently inserts an item into the hash if no item exists with the same key (unless the hash is const). For example, the following code snippet will create 1000 items in memory: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 6 To avoid this problem, replace \c hash[i] with \c hash.value(i) in the code above. Internally, QHash uses a hash table to perform lookups. This hash table automatically grows and shrinks to provide fast lookups without wasting too much memory. You can still control the size of the hash table by calling reserve() if you already know approximately how many items the QHash will contain, but this isn't necessary to obtain good performance. You can also call capacity() to retrieve the hash table's size. If you want to navigate through all the (key, value) pairs stored in a QHash, you can use an iterator. QHash provides both \l{Java-style iterators} (QHashIterator and QMutableHashIterator) and \l{STL-style iterators} (QHash::const_iterator and QHash::iterator). Here's how to iterate over a QHash using a Java-style iterator: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 7 Here's the same code, but using an STL-style iterator: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 8 QHash is unordered, so an iterator's sequence cannot be assumed to be predictable. If ordering by key is required, use a QMap. Normally, a QHash allows only one value per key. If you call insert() with a key that already exists in the QHash, the previous value is erased. For example: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 9 If you only need to extract the values from a hash (not the keys), you can also use \l{foreach}: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 12 Items can be removed from the hash in several ways. One way is to call remove(); this will remove any item with the given key. Another way is to use QMutableHashIterator::remove(). In addition, you can clear the entire hash using clear(). QHash's key and value data types must be \l{assignable data types}. You cannot, for example, store a QWidget as a value; instead, store a QWidget *. \target qHash \section2 The qHash() hashing function A QHash's key type has additional requirements other than being an assignable data type: it must provide operator==(), and there must also be a qHash() function in the type's namespace that returns a hash value for an argument of the key's type. The qHash() function computes a numeric value based on a key. It can use any algorithm imaginable, as long as it always returns the same value if given the same argument. In other words, if \c{e1 == e2}, then \c{qHash(e1) == qHash(e2)} must hold as well. However, to obtain good performance, the qHash() function should attempt to return different hash values for different keys to the largest extent possible. For a key type \c{K}, the qHash function must have one of these signatures: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 32 The two-arguments overloads take an unsigned integer that should be used to seed the calculation of the hash function. This seed is provided by QHash in order to prevent a family of \l{algorithmic complexity attacks}. If both a one-argument and a two-arguments overload are defined for a key type, the latter is used by QHash (note that you can simply define a two-arguments version, and use a default value for the seed parameter). Here's a partial list of the C++ and Qt types that can serve as keys in a QHash: any integer type (char, unsigned long, etc.), any pointer type, QChar, QString, and QByteArray. For all of these, the \c header defines a qHash() function that computes an adequate hash value. Many other Qt classes also declare a qHash overload for their type; please refer to the documentation of each class. If you want to use other types as the key, make sure that you provide operator==() and a qHash() implementation. Example: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 13 In the example above, we've relied on Qt's global qHash(const QString &, uint) to give us a hash value for the employee's name, and XOR'ed this with the day they were born to help produce unique hashes for people with the same name. Note that the implementation of the qHash() overloads offered by Qt may change at any time. You \b{must not} rely on the fact that qHash() will give the same results (for the same inputs) across different Qt versions. \section2 Algorithmic complexity attacks All hash tables are vulnerable to a particular class of denial of service attacks, in which the attacker carefully pre-computes a set of different keys that are going to be hashed in the same bucket of a hash table (or even have the very same hash value). The attack aims at getting the worst-case algorithmic behavior (O(n) instead of amortized O(1), see \l{Algorithmic Complexity} for the details) when the data is fed into the table. In order to avoid this worst-case behavior, the calculation of the hash value done by qHash() can be salted by a random seed, that nullifies the attack's extent. This seed is automatically generated by QHash once per process, and then passed by QHash as the second argument of the two-arguments overload of the qHash() function. This randomization of QHash is enabled by default. Even though programs should never depend on a particular QHash ordering, there may be situations where you temporarily need deterministic behavior, for example for debugging or regression testing. To disable the randomization, define the environment variable \c QT_HASH_SEED to have the value 0. Alternatively, you can call the qSetGlobalQHashSeed() function with the value 0. \sa QHashIterator, QMutableHashIterator, QMap, QSet */ /*! \fn template QHash::QHash() Constructs an empty hash. \sa clear() */ /*! \fn template QHash::QHash(QHash &&other) Move-constructs a QHash instance, making it point at the same object that \a other was pointing to. \since 5.2 */ /*! \fn template QHash::QHash(std::initializer_list > list) \since 5.1 Constructs a hash with a copy of each of the elements in the initializer list \a list.

QHash\::iterator allows you to iterate over a QHash (or QMultiHash) and to modify the value (but not the key) associated with a particular key. If you want to iterate over a const QHash, you should use QHash::const_iterator. It is generally good practice to use QHash::const_iterator on a non-const QHash as well, unless you need to change the QHash through the iterator. Const iterators are slightly faster, and can improve code readability. The default QHash::iterator constructor creates an uninitialized iterator. You must initialize it using a QHash function like QHash::begin(), QHash::end(), or QHash::find() before you can start iterating. Here's a typical loop that prints all the (key, value) pairs stored in a hash: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 17 Unlike QMap, which orders its items by key, QHash stores its items in an arbitrary order. Let's see a few examples of things we can do with a QHash::iterator that we cannot do with a QHash::const_iterator. Here's an example that increments every value stored in the QHash by 2: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 18 Here's an example that removes all the items whose key is a string that starts with an underscore character: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 19 The call to QHash::erase() removes the item pointed to by the iterator from the hash, and returns an iterator to the next item. Here's another way of removing an item while iterating: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 20 It might be tempting to write code like this: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 21 However, this will potentially crash in \c{++i}, because \c i is a dangling iterator after the call to erase(). Multiple iterators can be used on the same hash. However, be aware that any modification performed directly on the QHash has the potential of dramatically changing the order in which the items are stored in the hash, as they might cause QHash to rehash its internal data structure. There is one notable exception: QHash::erase(). This function can safely be called while iterating, and won't affect the order of items in the hash.

You must initialize it using a QHash function like QHash::constBegin(), QHash::constEnd(), or QHash::find() before you can start iterating. Here's a typical loop that prints all the (key, value) pairs stored in a hash: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 23 Unlike QMap, which orders its items by key, QHash stores its items in an arbitrary order. The only guarantee is that items that share the same key (because they were inserted using a QMultiHash) will appear consecutively, from the most recently to the least recently inserted value. Multiple iterators can be used on the same hash. However, be aware that any modification performed directly on the QHash has the potential of dramatically changing the order in which the items are stored in the hash, as they might cause QHash to rehash its internal data structure. If you need to keep iterators over a long period of time, we recommend that you use QMap rather than QHash. \warning Iterators on implicitly shared containers do not work exactly like STL-iterators. You should avoid copying a container while iterators are active on that container.

QHash::key_iterator is essentially the same as QHash::const_iterator with the difference that operator*() and operator->() return a key instead of a value. For most uses QHash::iterator and QHash::const_iterator should be used, you can easily access the key by calling QHash::iterator::key(): \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 27 However, to have interoperability between QHash's keys and STL-style algorithms we need an iterator that dereferences to a key instead of a value. With QHash::key_iterator we can apply an algorithm to a range of keys without having to call QHash::keys(), which is inefficient as it costs one QHash iteration and memory allocation to create a temporary QList. \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 28 QHash::key_iterator is const, it's not possible to modify the key.

It inherits QHash and extends it with a few convenience functions that make it more suitable than QHash for storing multi-valued hashes. A multi-valued hash is a hash that allows multiple values with the same key. Because QMultiHash inherits QHash, all of QHash's functionality also applies to QMultiHash. For example, you can use isEmpty() to test whether the hash is empty, and you can traverse a QMultiHash using QHash's iterator classes (for example, QHashIterator). But opposed to QHash, it provides an insert() function will allow the insertion of multiple items with the same key. The replace() function corresponds to QHash::insert(). It also provides convenient operator+() and operator+=(). Unlike QMultiMap, QMultiHash does not provide and ordering of the inserted items. The only guarantee is that items that share the same key will appear consecutively, from the most recently to the least recently inserted value. Example: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 24 Unlike QHash, QMultiHash provides no operator[]. Use value() or replace() if you want to access the most recently inserted item with a certain key. If you want to retrieve all the values for a single key, you can use values(const Key &key), which returns a QList: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 25 The items that share the same key are available from most recently to least recently inserted. A more efficient approach is to call find() to get the STL-style iterator for the first item with a key and iterate from there: \snippet code/src_corelib_tools_qhash.cpp 26 QMultiHash's key and value data types must be \l{assignable data types}. You cannot, for example, store a QWidget as a value; instead, store a QWidget *. In addition, QMultiHash's key type must provide operator==(), and there must also be a qHash() function in the type's namespace that returns a hash value for an argument of the key's type.
