CNTV_TVAL, Counter-timer Virtual Timer TimerValue register
The CNTV_TVAL characteristics are:
Purpose
Holds the timer value for the virtual timer.
Configuration
AArch32 System register CNTV_TVAL bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register CNTV_TVAL_EL0[31:0] .
This register is present only when AArch32 is supported at any Exception level. Otherwise, direct accesses to CNTV_TVAL are UNDEFINED.
Attributes
CNTV_TVAL is a 32-bit register.
Field descriptions
The CNTV_TVAL bit assignments are:
31 | 30 | 29 | 28 | 27 | 26 | 25 | 24 | 23 | 22 | 21 | 20 | 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
TimerValue |
TimerValue, bits [31:0]
The TimerValue view of the virtual timer.
On a read of this register:
- If CNTV_CTL.ENABLE is 0, the value returned is UNKNOWN.
- If CNTV_CTL.ENABLE is 1, the value returned is (CNTV_CVAL - CNTVCT).
On a write of this register, CNTV_CVAL is set to (CNTVCT + TimerValue), where TimerValue is treated as a signed 32-bit integer.
When CNTP_CTL.ENABLE is 1, the timer condition is met when (CNTVCT - 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 CNTV_CTL.ENABLE is 0, the timer condition is not met, but CNTVCT continues to count, so the TimerValue view appears to continue to count down.
This field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
Accessing the CNTV_TVAL
Accesses to this register use the following encodings:
