13  * INTRODUCTION
14  *
15  *   The textsearch infrastructure provides text searching facilities for
16  *   both linear and non-linear data. Individual search algorithms are
17  *   implemented in modules and chosen by the user.

37  *
38  *   (1) User configures a search by calling textsearch_prepare() specifying
39  *       the search parameters such as the pattern and algorithm name.
40  *   (2) Core requests the algorithm to allocate and initialize a search
41  *       configuration according to the specified parameters.
42  *   (3) User starts the search(es) by calling textsearch_find() or
43  *       textsearch_next() to fetch subsequent occurrences. A state variable
44  *       is provided to the algorithm to store persistent variables.
45  *   (4) Core eventually resets the search offset and forwards the find()
46  *       request to the algorithm.
47  *   (5) Algorithm calls get_next_block() provided by the user continuously
48  *       to fetch the data to be searched in block by block.
49  *   (6) Algorithm invokes finish() after the last call to get_next_block
50  *       to clean up any leftovers from get_next_block. (Optional)
51  *   (7) User destroys the configuration by calling textsearch_destroy().
52  *   (8) Core notifies the algorithm to destroy algorithm specific
53  *       allocations. (Optional)
54  *
55  * USAGE
56  *
57  *   Before a search can be performed, a configuration must be created
58  *   by calling textsearch_prepare() specifying the searching algorithm,
59  *   the pattern to look for and flags. As a flag, you can set TS_IGNORECASE
60  *   to perform case insensitive matching. But it might slow down
61  *   performance of algorithm, so you should use it at own your risk.
62  *   The returned configuration may then be used for an arbitrary
63  *   amount of times and even in parallel as long as a separate struct
64  *   ts_state variable is provided to every instance.
65  *
66  *   The actual search is performed by either calling
67  *   textsearch_find_continuous() for linear data or by providing
68  *   an own get_next_block() implementation and
69  *   calling textsearch_find(). Both functions return
70  *   the position of the first occurrence of the pattern or UINT_MAX if
71  *   no match was found. Subsequent occurrences can be found by calling
72  *   textsearch_next() regardless of the linearity of the data.
73  *
74  *   Once you're done using a configuration it must be given back via
75  *   textsearch_destroy.
76  *
77  * EXAMPLE::
78  *
79  *   int pos;
80  *   struct ts_config *conf;
81  *   struct ts_state state;
82  *   const char *pattern = "chicken";
83  *   const char *example = "We dance the funky chicken";
84  *
85  *   conf = textsearch_prepare("kmp", pattern, strlen(pattern),
86  *                             GFP_KERNEL, TS_AUTOLOAD);
87  *   if (IS_ERR(conf)) {
88  *       err = PTR_ERR(conf);
89  *       goto errout;
90  *   }
91  *
92  *   pos = textsearch_find_continuous(conf, &state, example, strlen(example));
93  *   if (pos != UINT_MAX)
94  *       panic("Oh my god, dancing chickens at %d\n", pos);
95  *
96  *   textsearch_destroy(conf);
