When LCS is isomorphic to some function space?

It is known that any vector space can be realized as some function space. Now let us put the vector topology in. When will a topological vector space be isomorphic to some function space (equipped with the product topology)? Here by function space I mean the vector space of complex valued functions over some set.

Apparently, only locally convex spaces (LCS) can be our candidate (for the product topology is locally convex). The question is whether all LCS can be realized as some function space? If not, what kind of conditions should we put?

Any reference would be appreciated, thanks!
