23 * Note: Since Boyer-Moore (BM) performs searches for matchings from right
24 * to left, it's still possible that a matching could be spread over
25 * multiple blocks, in that case this algorithm won't find any coincidence.
27 * If you're willing to ensure that such thing won't ever happen, use the
28 * Knuth-Pratt-Morris (KMP) implementation instead. In conclusion, choose
29 * the proper string search algorithm depending on your setting.
31 * Say you're using the textsearch infrastructure for filtering, NIDS or
32 * any similar security focused purpose, then go KMP. Otherwise, if you
33 * really care about performance, say you're classifying packets to apply
34 * Quality of Service (QoS) policies, and you don't mind about possible
35 * matchings spread over multiple fragments, then go BM.
