14 * INTRODUCTION
15 *
16 * The textsearch infrastructure provides text searching facitilies for
17 * both linear and non-linear data. Individual search algorithms are
18 * implemented in modules and chosen by the user.
19 *

35 * +----------------+ +---------------+
36 *
37 * (1) User configures a search by calling _prepare() specifying the
38 * search parameters such as the pattern and algorithm name.
39 * (2) Core requests the algorithm to allocate and initialize a search
40 * configuration according to the specified parameters.
41 * (3) User starts the search(es) by calling _find() or _next() to
42 * fetch subsequent occurrences. A state variable is provided
Jan Engelhardt03a67a42006-11-30 05:32:19 +010043 * to the algorihtm to store persistent variables.
Thomas Graf2de4ff72005-06-23 20:49:30 -070044 * (4) Core eventually resets the search offset and forwards the find()
45 * request to the algorithm.
46 * (5) Algorithm calls get_next_block() provided by the user continously
47 * to fetch the data to be searched in block by block.
48 * (6) Algorithm invokes finish() after the last call to get_next_block
49 * to clean up any leftovers from get_next_block. (Optional)
50 * (7) User destroys the configuration by calling _destroy().
51 * (8) Core notifies the algorithm to destroy algorithm specific
52 * allocations. (Optional)
53 *
54 * USAGE
55 *
56 * Before a search can be performed, a configuration must be created
57 * by calling textsearch_prepare() specyfing the searching algorithm and
58 * the pattern to look for. The returned configuration may then be used
59 * for an arbitary amount of times and even in parallel as long as a
60 * separate struct ts_state variable is provided to every instance.
61 *
62 * The actual search is performed by either calling textsearch_find_-
63 * continuous() for linear data or by providing an own get_next_block()
64 * implementation and calling textsearch_find(). Both functions return
65 * the position of the first occurrence of the patern or UINT_MAX if
66 * no match was found. Subsequent occurences can be found by calling
67 * textsearch_next() regardless of the linearity of the data.
68 *
69 * Once you're done using a configuration it must be given back via
70 * textsearch_destroy.
71 *
72 * EXAMPLE
73 *
74 * int pos;
75 * struct ts_config *conf;
76 * struct ts_state state;
77 * const char *pattern = "chicken";
78 * const char *example = "We dance the funky chicken";
79 *
80 * conf = textsearch_prepare("kmp", pattern, strlen(pattern),
81 * GFP_KERNEL, TS_AUTOLOAD);
82 * if (IS_ERR(conf)) {
83 * err = PTR_ERR(conf);
84 * goto errout;
85 * }
86 *
87 * pos = textsearch_find_continuous(conf, &state, example, strlen(example));
88 * if (pos != UINT_MAX)
89 * panic("Oh my god, dancing chickens at %d\n", pos);
90 *
91 * textsearch_destroy(conf);
