- * Conventional binary search loop looks like this:
- *
- *	unsigned lo, hi;
- *      do {
- *              unsigned mi = (lo + hi) / 2;
- *              int cmp = "entry pointed at by mi" minus "target";
- *              if (!cmp)
- *                      return (mi is the wanted one)
- *              if (cmp > 0)
- *                      hi = mi; "mi is larger than target"
- *              else
- *                      lo = mi+1; "mi is smaller than target"
- *      } while (lo < hi);
- *
- * The invariants are:
- *
- * - When entering the loop, lo points at a slot that is never
- *   above the target (it could be at the target), hi points at a
- *   slot that is guaranteed to be above the target (it can never
- *   be at the target).
- *
- * - We find a point 'mi' between lo and hi (mi could be the same
- *   as lo, but never can be as same as hi), and check if it hits
- *   the target.  There are three cases:
- *
- *    - if it is a hit, we are happy.
- *
- *    - if it is strictly higher than the target, we set it to hi,
- *      and repeat the search.
- *
- *    - if it is strictly lower than the target, we update lo to
- *      one slot after it, because we allow lo to be at the target.
- *
- *   If the loop exits, there is no matching entry.
- *
- * When choosing 'mi', we do not have to take the "middle" but
- * anywhere in between lo and hi, as long as lo <= mi < hi is
- * satisfied.  When we somehow know that the distance between the
- * target and lo is much shorter than the target and hi, we could
- * pick mi that is much closer to lo than the midway.
- *
- * Now, we can take advantage of the fact that SHA-1 is a good hash
- * function, and as long as there are enough entries in the table, we
- * can expect uniform distribution.  An entry that begins with for
- * example "deadbeef..." is much likely to appear much later than in
- * the midway of the table.  It can reasonably be expected to be near
- * 87% (222/256) from the top of the table.
- *
- * However, we do not want to pick "mi" too precisely.  If the entry at
- * the 87% in the above example turns out to be higher than the target
- * we are looking for, we would end up narrowing the search space down
- * only by 13%, instead of 50% we would get if we did a simple binary
- * search.  So we would want to hedge our bets by being less aggressive.
- *
- * The table at "table" holds at least "nr" entries of "elem_size"
- * bytes each.  Each entry has the SHA-1 key at "key_offset".  The
- * table is sorted by the SHA-1 key of the entries.  The caller wants
- * to find the entry with "key", and knows that the entry at "lo" is
- * not higher than the entry it is looking for, and that the entry at
- * "hi" is higher than the entry it is looking for.

-			 *
-			 * Furthermore, we know that one of our

-			 * hit the duplicate run at lo=1, hi=3
-			 * (e.g., by first mi=3, then mi=0). But we
-			 * can never have lo > 1, because B < C.
-			 * That is, if our key is less than the
-			 * run, we know that "lo" is the edge, but
-			 * we can say nothing of "hi". Similarly,
-			 * if our key is greater than the run, we
-			 * know that "hi" is the edge, but we can
-			 * say nothing of "lo".
-			 *
-			 * Therefore if we do not find it, we also
