  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);
