+ *
+ * INTRODUCTION
+ *
+ *   The textsearch infrastructure provides text searching facitilies for
+ *   both linear and non-linear data. Individual search algorithms are
+ *   implemented in modules and chosen by the user.
+ *
+ * ARCHITECTURE

+ *     |                |      +---------------+  (2)     (4)        (8)

+ *     |             (7)|----->| destroy()     |----------------------+
+ *     +----------------+      +---------------+
+ *  
+ *   (1) User configures a search by calling _prepare() specifying the
+ *       search parameters such as the pattern and algorithm name.
+ *   (2) Core requests the algorithm to allocate and initialize a search
+ *       configuration according to the specified parameters.
+ *   (3) User starts the search(es) by calling _find() or _next() to
+ *       fetch subsequent occurrences. A state variable is provided
+ *       to the algorihtm to store persistant variables.
+ *   (4) Core eventually resets the search offset and forwards the find()
+ *       request to the algorithm.
+ *   (5) Algorithm calls get_next_block() provided by the user continously
+ *       to fetch the data to be searched in block by block.
+ *   (6) Algorithm invokes finish() after the last call to get_next_block
+ *       to clean up any leftovers from get_next_block. (Optional)
+ *   (7) User destroys the configuration by calling _destroy().
+ *   (8) Core notifies the algorithm to destroy algorithm specific
+ *       allocations. (Optional)
+ *
+ * USAGE
+ *
+ *   Before a search can be performed, a configuration must be created
+ *   by calling textsearch_prepare() specyfing the searching algorithm and
+ *   the pattern to look for. The returned configuration may then be used
+ *   for an arbitary amount of times and even in parallel as long as a
+ *   separate struct ts_state variable is provided to every instance.
+ *
+ *   The actual search is performed by either calling textsearch_find_-
+ *   continuous() for linear data or by providing an own get_next_block()
+ *   implementation and calling textsearch_find(). Both functions return
+ *   the position of the first occurrence of the patern or UINT_MAX if
+ *   no match was found. Subsequent occurences can be found by calling
+ *   textsearch_next() regardless of the linearity of the data.
+ *
+ *   Once you're done using a configuration it must be given back via
+ *   textsearch_destroy.
+ *
+ * EXAMPLE
+ *
+ *   int pos;
+ *   struct ts_config *conf;
+ *   struct ts_state state;
+ *   const char *pattern = "chicken";
+ *   const char *example = "We dance the funky chicken";
+ *
+ *   conf = textsearch_prepare("kmp", pattern, strlen(pattern),
+ *                             GFP_KERNEL, TS_AUTOLOAD);
+ *   if (IS_ERR(conf)) {
+ *       err = PTR_ERR(conf);
+ *       goto errout;
+ *   }
+ *
+ *   pos = textsearch_find_continuous(conf, &state, example, strlen(example));
+ *   if (pos != UINT_MAX)
+ *       panic("Oh my god, dancing chickens at %d\n", pos);
+ *
+ *   textsearch_destroy(conf);
