error for hash function of pair of ints

I have the following class with an unordered_map member, and a hash function defined for pair<int,int> 

class abc
{public :
    unordered_map < pair<int,int> , int > rules ;
    unsigned nodes;
    unsigned packet ;     
};

namespace std {
template <>
    class hash < std::pair< int,int> >{
    public :
        size_t operator()(const pair< int, int> &x ) const
        {
            size_t h =   std::hash<int>()(x.first) ^ std::hash<int>()(x.second);
            return  h ;
        }
    };
}

But I am getting the following errors : 

error: invalid use of incomplete type ‘struct std::hash<std::pair<int, int> >

error: declaration of ‘struct std::hash<std::pair<int, int> >

error: type ‘std::__detail::_Hashtable_ebo_helper<1, std::hash<std::pair<int, int> >, true>’ is not a direct base of ‘std::__detail::_Hash_code_base<std::pair<int, int>, std::pair<const std::pair<int, int>, int>, std::__detail::_Select1st, std::hash<std::pair<int, int> >, std::__detail::_Mod_range_hashing, std::__detail::_Default_ranged_hash, true>’

I prefer to rely on the standard implementation of std::hash<uintmax_t> to mix hashes of components of an std::pair:

#include <functional>
#include <utility>

struct hash_pair final {
    template<class TFirst, class TSecond>
    size_t operator()(const std::pair<TFirst, TSecond>& p) const noexcept {
        uintmax_t hash = std::hash<TFirst>{}(p.first);
        hash <<= sizeof(uintmax_t) * 4;
        hash ^= std::hash<TSecond>{}(p.second);
        return std::hash<uintmax_t>{}(hash);
    }
};
