+      This secret is associated with a virtualized TPM (vTPM) and serves
+      as a passphrase for deriving a key from for encrypting the state
+      of the vTPM.
+      The <code>&lt;usage type='vtpm'&gt;</code> element must contain
+      a single <code>name</code> element that specifies a usage name
+      for the secret.  The vTPM secret can then be used by UUID or by
+      this usage name via the <code>&lt;encryption&gt;</code> element of
+      a <a href="formatdomain.html#elementsTpm">tpm</a> when using an
+      emulator.
+      <span class="since">Since 5.6.0</span>. The following is an example
+      of the steps to be taken.  First create a vtpm-secret.xml file:    </p>
+
+    <pre>
+# cat vtpm-secret.xml
+&lt;secret ephemeral='no' private='yes'&gt;
+   &lt;description&gt;sample vTPM secret&lt;/description&gt;
+   &lt;usage type='vtpm'&gt;
+      &lt;name&gt;VTPM_example&lt;/name&gt;

+      A secret may also be defined via the
+      <a href="html/libvirt-libvirt-secret.html#virSecretDefineXML">
+       <code>virSecretDefineXML</code></a> API.
+
+      Once the secret is defined, a secret value will need to be set. The
+      secret would be the passphrase used to decrypt the vTPM state.
+      The following is a simple example of using
+      <code>virsh secret-set-value</code> to set the secret value. The
+      <a href="html/libvirt-libvirt-secret.html#virSecretSetValue">
+      <code>virSecretSetValue</code></a> API may also be used to set
+      a more secure secret without using printable/readable characters.
