  To: rostedt, linux-trace-devel; +Cc: Yordan Karadzhov (VMware)

A new API is proposed, to get tep event descriptor for given synthetic
event:

tracefs_synth_get_event ()

The API implementation gets derived from the implementation of the
existing API  tracefs_dynevent_get_event(). It can detect any newly
created or removed synthetic events.

 DESCRIPTION

 synthetic event or NULL on error. The returned string belongs to the synth event object
 and is freed with the event by *tracefs_synth_free*().
 
+The *tracefs_synth_get_event*() function returns a tep event, describing the given synthetic
+event. The API detects any newly created or removed dynamic events. The returned pointer to
+tep event is controlled by @tep and must not be freed.

 RETURN VALUE
 ------------
 *tracefs_synth_get_name*(), *tracefs_synth_show_event*(), *tracefs_synth_show_start_hist*()
 and *tracefs_synth_show_end_hist*()  return a string owned by the synth event object.
 
+The *tracefs_synth_get_event*() function returns a pointer to a tep event or NULL in case of an
+error or if the requested synthetic event is missing. The returned pointer to tep event is
+controlled by @tep and must not be freed.
+
 All other functions return zero on success or -1 on error.
