+================
+
+NAME
+----
+tep_find_event,tep_find_event_by_name,tep_find_event_by_record -
+Find events by given key.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+struct tep_event pass:[*]*tep_find_event*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, int _id_);
+struct tep_event pass:[*]*tep_find_event_by_name*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, const char pass:[*]_sys_, const char pass:[*]_name_);
+struct tep_event pass:[*]*tep_find_event_by_record*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, struct tep_record pass:[*]_record_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+This set of functions can be used to search for an event, based on a given
+criteria. All functions require a pointer to a _tep_, trace event parser
+context.
+
+The _tep_find_event()_ function searches for an event by given event _id_. The
+event ID is assigned dynamically and can be viewed in event's format file,
+"ID" field.
+
+The tep_find_event_by_name()_ function searches for an event by given
+event _name_, under the system _sys_. If the _sys_ is NULL (not specified),
+the first event with _name_ is returned.
+
+The tep_find_event_by_record()_ function searches for an event from a given
+_record_.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+All these functions return a pointer to the found event, or NULL if there is no
+such event.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+struct tep_event *event;
+
+event = tep_find_event(tep, 1857);
+if (event == NULL) {
+	/* There is no event with ID 1857 */
+}
+
+event = tep_find_event_by_name(tep, "kvm", "kvm_exit");
+if (event == NULL) {
+	/* There is no kvm_exit event, from kvm system */
+}
+
+void event_from_record(struct tep_record *record)
+{
+ struct tep_event *event = tep_find_event_by_record(tep, record);
+	if (event == NULL) {
+		/* There is no event from given record */
+	}
+}
