Such as a test that gets 8 collisions into a single bucket to force hash
table growth
Yes.
, or a test of custom hasher/comparator functions?
Not yet, but I'll add it, thanks for mentioning that :-)

Looks suspiciously like you used gdb to dump an existing hash structure
on a machine with lots of VMs :) Works for me.
Not really, I just generated a bunch of UUIDs with uuidgen, used them within
this test to create a hash, dumped that in gdb and replaced the original list
with this dump :-) The full set of UUIDs will come with the additional tests
since these two test didn't really require so many entries in a hash table.

We're abusing an an internal detail. So good to have the comment - if
the test breaks because of another rewrite, but the only breakage is due
to a different link order in each bucket, then I'm okay modifying the
test at that point, and meanwhile it justifies our abuse (that is, no
change needed).
The order doesn't matter much. Actually the comment isn't even right for
current hash code. It's correct only after applying the hash rewrite. Making
sure link order matches the uuids array just helps with designing the tests.
E.g., when removing entries, one can easily say which entry is the first, last
or in the middle of the list and can select appropriate uuids to test removing
from different places in the list.

Looks like a good test; it certainly would have caught the previous bugs
before the most recent hash.c fixes.
Yes, of course I tested this test with older libvirt code without the hash
fixes and the test just segfaults.
ACK.
Thanks, pushed.
