<sect3 xml:id="migration81.new-features.hash.murmurhash3">
<title>MurmurHash3</title>
<para>
Added support for <literal>MurmurHash3</literal> with streaming
support. The following variants are implemented:
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<simpara>murmur3a, 32-bit hash</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>murmur3c, 128-bit hash for x86</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>murmur3f, 128-bit hash for x64</simpara>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>
The initial hash state can be passed through the <literal>seed</literal>
key in the <parameter>options</parameter> array, for example:
<informalexample>
<programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
$h = hash("murmur3f", $data, options: ["seed" => 42]);
echo $h, "\n";
?>
]]>
</programlisting>

A valid seed value is within the range from <literal>0</literal>
to the platform defined <constant>UINT_MAX</constant>, usually
<literal>4294967295</literal>.
</para>
</sect3>
<sect3 xml:id="migration81.new-features.hash.xxhash">

<simpara>xxh3, 64-bit hash</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>xxh128, 128-bit hash</simpara>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>
The initial hash state can be passed through the <literal>seed</literal>
key in the <parameter>options</parameter> array, for example:
<informalexample>
<programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
$h = hash("xxh3", $data, options: ["seed" => 42]);
echo $h, "\n";
?>
]]>
</programlisting>
</informalexample>
Secret usage is supported through passing the <literal>secret</literal>
key in the <parameter>options</parameter> array, too:
<informalexample>
<programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
$h = hash("xxh3", $data, options: ["secret" => "at least 136 bytes long secret here"]);
echo $h, "\n";
?>
]]>
</programlisting>
</informalexample>
The quality of the custom secret is crucial for the quality of the resulting hash.
It is highly recommended for the secret to use the best possible entropy.
