+================
+
+NAME
+----
+tep_data_lat_fmt - Parses the data for the latency format.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+void *tep_data_lat_fmt*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, struct trace_seq pass:[*]_s_, struct tep_record pass:[*]_record_);
+--
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The _tep_data_lat_fmt()_ function parses out the latency format (interrupts 
+disabled, need rescheduling, in hard/soft interrupt, preempt count and 
+lock depth) from _record_ and places it into the _s_.  The _tep_ argument is 
+the trace event parser context.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+#include <trace-seq.h>
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+struct trace_seq seq;
+trace_seq_init(&seq);
+...
+void process_record(struct tep_record *record)
+{
+	/* Place latency information in the seq */
+	tep_data_lat_fmt(tep, &seq, record);
+}
+...
+--
+
+FILES

+[verse]
+--
+*event-parse.h*
+	Header file to include in order to have access to the library APIs.
+*trace-seq.h*
+	Header file to include in order to have access to trace sequences related APIs.
+	Trace sequences are used to allow a function to call several other functions 
+	to create a string of data to use.
+*-ltraceevent*
+	Linker switch to add when building a program that uses the library.
