+================

+NAME
+----
+tep_get_cpus, tep_set_cpus - Get / set the number of CPUs, which have a tracing
+buffer representing it. Note, the buffer may be empty.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+int *tep_get_cpus*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+void *tep_set_cpus*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, int _cpus_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The _tep_get_cpus()_ function gets the number of CPUs, which have a tracing
+buffer representing it. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+
+The _tep_set_cpus()_ function sets the number of CPUs, which have a tracing
+buffer representing it. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+The _cpu_ argument is the number of CPUs with tracing data.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The _tep_get_cpus()_ functions returns the number of CPUs, which have tracing
+data recorded.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+ tep_set_cpus(tep, 5);
+...
+ printf("We have tracing data for %d CPUs", tep_get_cpus(tep));
