+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm ffi_prep_cif_var
+function prepares a
+.Nm ffi_cif
+structure for use with
+.Nm ffi_call
+for variadic functions.
+.Fa abi
+specifies a set of calling conventions to use.
+.Fa atypes
+is an array of
+.Fa ntotalargs
+pointers to
+.Nm ffi_type
+structs that describe the data type, size and alignment of each argument.
+.Fa rtype
+points to an
+.Nm ffi_type
+that describes the data type, size and alignment of the
+return value.
+.Fa nfixedargs
+must contain the number of fixed (non-variadic) arguments.
+Note that to call a non-variadic function
+.Nm ffi_prep_cif
+must be used.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+Upon successful completion,
+.Nm ffi_prep_cif_var
+returns
+.Nm FFI_OK .
+It will return
+.Nm FFI_BAD_TYPEDEF
+if
+.Fa cif
+is
+.Nm NULL
+or
+.Fa atypes
+or
+.Fa rtype
+is malformed. If
+.Fa abi
+does not refer to a valid ABI,
+.Nm FFI_BAD_ABI
+will be returned. Available ABIs are
+defined in
+.Nm <ffitarget.h>
