+// This file provides the Google-internal implementation of the Wyhash
+// algorithm.
+//
+// Wyhash is a fast hash function for hash tables, the fastest we've currently
+// (late 2020) found that passes the SMHasher tests. The algorithm relies on
+// intrinsic 128-bit multiplication for speed. This is not meant to be secure -
+// just fast.
