+================
+
+NAME
+----
+trace_seq_printf,trace_seq_vprintf - Print formated string with arguments in a trace sequence.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+*#include <trace-seq.h>*
+
+int *trace_seq_printf*(struct trace_seq pass:[*]_s_, const char pass:[*]_fmt_, _..._);
+int *trace_seq_vprintf*(struct trace_seq pass:[*]_s_, const char pass:[*]_fmt_, va_list _args_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Trace sequences are used to allow a function to call several other functions 
+to create a string of data to use.
+
+The _trace_seq_printf()_ function puts a formated string _fmt _with 
+variable arguments _..._ in the trace sequence _s_.
+
+The _trace_seq_vprintf()_ function puts a formated string _fmt _with 
+list of arguments _args_ in the trace sequence _s_. 
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+
+Both _trace_seq_printf()_ and _trace_seq_vprintf()_ functions return non-zero 
+on success, or 0 in case of an error.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+#include <trace-seq.h>
+...
+struct trace_seq seq;
+trace_seq_init(&seq);
+...
+if (trace_seq_printf(&seq, "example print %d", 10) == 0) {
+	/* Failed to print in the trace sequence */
+}
+...
+void my_print(char *format, ...)
+{
+	va_list ap;
+	va_start(ap, format);
+	if (trace_seq_printf(&seq, format, ap) == 0) {
+		/* Failed to print in the trace sequence */
+	}	
+	va_end(ap);
+}
+...
