CNTP_TVAL, Counter-timer Physical Timer TimerValue register

The CNTP_TVAL characteristics are:

Purpose

Holds the timer value for the EL1 physical timer.

Configuration

AArch32 System register CNTP_TVAL bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register CNTP_TVAL_EL0[31:0] .

RW fields in this register reset to architecturally UNKNOWN values.

Attributes

CNTP_TVAL is a 32-bit register.

Field descriptions

The CNTP_TVAL bit assignments are:

TimerValue

TimerValue, bits [31:0]

The TimerValue view of the EL1 physical timer.

On a read of this register:

On a write of this register, CNTP_CVAL is set to (CNTPCT + TimerValue), where TimerValue is treated as a signed 32-bit integer.

When CNTP_CTL.ENABLE is 1, the timer condition is met when (CNTPCT - CNTP_CVAL) is greater than or equal to zero. This means that TimerValue acts like a 32-bit downcounter timer. When the timer condition is met:

When CNTP_CTL.ENABLE is 0, the timer condition is not met, but CNTPCT continues to count, so the TimerValue view appears to continue to count down.

This field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

Accessing the CNTP_TVAL
