+/**
+ * DOC: ts_intro
+ * INTRODUCTION
+ *
+ * The textsearch infrastructure provides text searching facilities for
+ * both linear and non-linear data. Individual search algorithms are
+ * implemented in modules and chosen by the user.
+ *
+ * ARCHITECTURE
+ *
+ * .. code-block:: none
+ *
+ * User
+ * +----------------+
+ * | finish()|<--------------(6)-----------------+
+ * |get_next_block()|<--------------(5)---------------+ |
+ * | | Algorithm | |
+ * | | +------------------------------+
+ * | | | init() find() destroy() |
+ * | | +------------------------------+
+ * | | Core API ^ ^ ^
+ * | | +---------------+ (2) (4) (8)
+ * | (1)|----->| prepare() |---+ | |
+ * | (3)|----->| find()/next() |-----------+ |
+ * | (7)|----->| destroy() |----------------------+
+ * +----------------+ +---------------+
+ *
+ * (1) User configures a search by calling textsearch_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 textsearch_find() or
+ * textsearch_next() to fetch subsequent occurrences. A state variable
+ * is provided to the algorithm to store persistent 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 continuously
+ * 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 textsearch_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() specifying the searching algorithm,
+ * the pattern to look for and flags. As a flag, you can set TS_IGNORECASE
+ * to perform case insensitive matching. But it might slow down
+ * performance of algorithm, so you should use it at own your risk.
+ * The returned configuration may then be used for an arbitrary
+ * 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 pattern or UINT_MAX if
+ * no match was found. Subsequent occurrences 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);
