+	  User trace events are user-defined trace events that
+	  can be used like an existing kernel trace event.  User trace
+	  events are generated by writing to a tracefs file.  User
+	  processes can determine if their tracing events should be
+	  generated by memory mapping a tracefs file and checking for
+	  an associated byte being non-zero.
