CNTV_CVAL, Counter-timer Virtual Timer CompareValue register
The CNTV_CVAL characteristics are:
Purpose
Holds the compare value for the virtual timer.
Configuration
AArch32 System register CNTV_CVAL bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register CNTV_CVAL_EL0[63:0] .
This register is present only when AArch32 is supported at any Exception level. Otherwise, direct accesses to CNTV_CVAL are UNKNOWN.
Attributes
CNTV_CVAL is a 64-bit register.
Field descriptions
The CNTV_CVAL bit assignments are:
63 | 62 | 61 | 60 | 59 | 58 | 57 | 56 | 55 | 54 | 53 | 52 | 51 | 50 | 49 | 48 | 47 | 46 | 45 | 44 | 43 | 42 | 41 | 40 | 39 | 38 | 37 | 36 | 35 | 34 | 33 | 32 |

CompareValue, bits [63:0]
Holds the EL1 virtual timer CompareValue.
When CNTV_CTL.ENABLE is 1, the timer condition is met when (CNTVCT - CompareValue) is greater than or equal to zero. This means that CompareValue acts like a 64-bit upcounter timer. When the timer condition is met:
When CNTV_CTL.ENABLE is 0, the timer condition is not met, but CNTVCT continues to count.
If the Generic counter is implemented at a size less than 64 bits, then this field is permitted to be implemented at the same width as the counter, and the upper bits are RES0.
The value of this field is treated as zero-extended in all counter calculations.
This field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
