+NAME
+----
+tracefs_tracers, tracefs_get_clock, tracefs_list_free -
+Helper functions for working with trace file system.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <tracefs.h>*
+
+char pass:[*]pass:[*]*tracefs_tracers*(const char pass:[*]_tracing_dir_);
+char pass:[*]*tracefs_get_clock*(struct tracefs_instance pass:[*]_instance_);
+void *tracefs_list_free*(char pass:[*]pass:[*]_list_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Various useful functions for working with trace file system.
+
+The _tracefs_tracers()_ function returns array of strings with the
+names of supported tracer plugins, located in the given _tracing_dir_ directory.
+This could be NULL or tracefs mount point, for trace systems in top instance,
+or full path to a trace instance, for trace systems in that instance.
+The last entry in the array as a NULL pointer. The array must
+be freed with _tracefs_list_free()_ API.
+
+The _tracefs_get_clock()_ function returns name of the current trace clock,
+used in the given _instance_. If _instance_ is NULL, the clock of the main
+trace instance is returned. The returned string must be freed with free().
+
+The _tracefs_list_free()_ function frees an array of strings, returned by
+_tracefs_event_systems()_, _tracefs_system_events()_ and _tracefs_tracers()_
+APIs.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The _tracefs_tracers()_ returns array of strings. The last element in that
+array is a NULL pointer. The array must be freed with _tracefs_list_free()_ API.
+In case of an error, NULL is returned.
+
+The _tracefs_get_clock()_ returns string, that must be freed with free(), or NULL
+in case of an error.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <tracefs.h>
+
+char **tracers = tracefs_tracers(NULL);
+
+	if (tracers) {
+		/* Got tracer plugins from the top trace instance */
+		...
+		tracefs_list_free(tracers);
+	}
+....
+char *clock = tracefs_get_clock(NULL);
+
+	if (clock) {
+		/* Got current trace clock of the top trace instance */
+		...
+		free(clock);
+	}
