Have a loop at the existing virtual timer: xen/arch/arm/vtimer.c It should give you a decent idea.___ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org https://lists.xenproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen-devel

Just a follow up question, emulating PL031 in xen, do you have idea how to inject virtual interrupt to domu? The interrupt should be only cpu interface interrupt, I think.

I do not have a good idea support RTC in ARM DomU, KVM and XEN x86 seems use emulated RTC in qemu. Thinking of paravirtual RTC, and dom0 control the expire time for alarm.

To support Android in DomU, RTC is needed for alarm, but I did not find information about RTC on xen for domu. So this need a new RTC paravirtualization driver? Any suggestions? By RTC, do you mean Real-Time Clock? Something like PL031? Or do you have something else in mind?
