+Generic Timer
+=============
+
+The following are the requirements related to ARM Generic Timer [1] interface
+exposed by Xen to Arm64 domains.
+
+Probe the Generic Timer device tree node from a domain
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+`XenSwdgn~arm64_generic_timer_probe_dt~1`
+
+Description:
+Xen shall generate a device tree node for the Generic Timer (in accordance to
+ARM architected timer device tree binding [2]) in the domain device tree.
+
+Rationale:
+
+Comments:
+Domains can detect the presence of the Generic Timer device tree node.
+
+Covers:
+ - `XenProd~emulated_timer~1`
+
+Read system counter frequency
+-----------------------------
+
+`XenSwdgn~arm64_generic_timer_read_freq~1`
+
+Description:
+Xen shall expose the frequency of the system counter to the domains in
+CNTFRQ_EL0 register and/or domain device tree's "clock-frequency" property.
+
+Rationale:
+
+Comments:
+
+Covers:
+ - `XenProd~emulated_timer~1`
+
+Access CNTKCTL_EL1 system register from a domain
+------------------------------------------------
+
+`XenSwdgn~arm64_generic_timer_access_cntkctlel1~1`
+
+Description:
+Xen shall expose Counter-timer Kernel Control register (CNTKCTL_EL1) to the
+domains.
+
+Rationale:
+
+Comments:
+
+Covers:
+ - `XenProd~emulated_timer~1`
+
+Access virtual timer from a domain
+----------------------------------
+
+`XenSwdgn~arm64_generic_timer_access_virtual_timer~1`
+
+Description:
+Xen shall expose the virtual timer registers (CNTVCT_EL0, CNTV_CTL_EL0,
+CNTV_CVAL_EL0, CNTV_TVAL_EL0) to the domains.
+
+Rationale:
+
+Comments:
+
+Covers:
+ - `XenProd~emulated_timer~1`
+
+Access physical timer from a domain
+-----------------------------------
+
+`XenSwdgn~arm64_generic_timer_access_physical_timer~1`
+
+Description:
+Xen shall expose physical timer registers (CNTPCT_EL0, CNTP_CTL_EL0,
+CNTP_CVAL_EL0, CNTP_TVAL_EL0) to the domains.
+
+Rationale:
+
+Comments:
+
+Covers:
+ - `XenProd~emulated_timer~1`
+
+Trigger the virtual timer interrupt from a domain
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+`XenSwdgn~arm64_generic_timer_trigger_virtual_interrupt~1`
+
+Description:
+Xen shall generate virtual timer interrupts to domains when the virtual timer
+condition is met.
+
+Rationale:
+
+Comments:
+
+Covers:
+ - `XenProd~emulated_timer~1`
+
+Trigger the physical timer interrupt from a domain
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+`XenSwdgn~arm64_generic_timer_trigger_physical_interrupt~1`
