CNTHVS_TVAL, Counter-timer Secure Virtual Timer TimerValue Register (EL2)

The CNTHVS_TVAL characteristics are:

Purpose

Provides AArch32 access to the timer value for the Secure EL2 virtual timer.

Configuration

AArch32 System register CNTHVS_TVAL bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register CNTHVS_TVAL_EL2[31:0].

This register is present only when AArch32 is supported and FEAT_SEL2 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to CNTHVS_TVAL are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

CNTHVS_TVAL is a 32-bit register.

TimerValue

TimerValue, bits [31:0]

The TimerValue view of the EL2 virtual timer.

On a read of this register:

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

When CNTHVS_CTL.ENABLE is 1, the timer condition is met when (CNTVCT - CNTHVS_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 CNTHVS_CTL.ENABLE is 0, the TimerValue cannot be read but continues to decrement. When the timer is enabled, the TimerValue represents the elapsed time whether that time was spent enabled or disabled.

Accessing CNTHVS_TVAL

This register is accessed using the encoding for CNTV_TVAL.

Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:

MRC{<c>}{<q>} <coproc>, {#}<opc1>, <Rt>, <CRn>, <CRm>{, {#}<opc2>}
