Have you tried good general purpose hash functions like murmur3 or cityhash? Another option is to use "hash" function that is bijection on integers and exploit this fact in data structure, e.g. by using hash array mapped trie or another prefix tree. The easiest way to build such function is Feistel network on top of general purpose hash function as round function. Li and Ri will be most and less significant 16 bits of ipv4 address accordingly. At least 3 Fiestel rounds required. Play with function to achieve better performance/distribution. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feistel_cipher Reduced round and block size RC5 also looks very attractive, but it's patented :( Thanks, Gleb. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
