22 /* A complete hash table is an instance of the following structure.
23 ** The internals of this structure are intended to be opaque -- client
24 ** code should not attempt to access or modify the fields of this structure
25 ** directly. Change this structure only by using the routines below.
26 ** However, some of the "procedures" and "functions" for modifying and
27 ** accessing this structure are really macros, so we can't really make
28 ** this structure opaque.
30 ** All elements of the hash table are on a single doubly-linked list.
31 ** Hash.first points to the head of this list.
33 ** There are Hash.htsize buckets. Each bucket points to a spot in
34 ** the global doubly-linked list. The contents of the bucket are the
35 ** element pointed to plus the next _ht.count-1 elements in the list.
37 ** Hash.htsize and Hash.ht may be zero. In that case lookup is done
38 ** by a linear search of the global list. For small tables, the
39 ** Hash.ht table is never allocated because if there are few elements
40 ** in the table, it is faster to do a linear search than to manage
41 ** the hash table.
