32/**
33 * @defgroup lavu_murmur3 Murmur3
34 * @ingroup lavu_hash
35 * MurmurHash3 hash function implementation.
36 *
37 * MurmurHash3 is a non-cryptographic hash function, of which three
38 * incompatible versions were created by its inventor Austin Appleby:
39 *
40 * - 32-bit output
41 * - 128-bit output for 32-bit platforms
42 * - 128-bit output for 64-bit platforms
43 *
44 * FFmpeg only implements the last variant: 128-bit output designed for 64-bit
45 * platforms. Even though the hash function was designed for 64-bit platforms,
46 * the function in reality works on 32-bit systems too, only with reduced
47 * performance.
48 *
49 * @anchor lavu_murmur3_seedinfo
50 * By design, MurmurHash3 requires a seed to operate. In response to this,
51 * libavutil provides two functions for hash initiation, one that requires a
52 * seed (av_murmur3_init_seeded()) and one that uses a fixed arbitrary integer
53 * as the seed, and therefore does not (av_murmur3_init()).
54 *
55 * To make hashes comparable, you should provide the same seed for all calls to
56 * this hash function -- if you are supplying one yourself, that is.
57 *
