The CNTV_CTL_EL0 characteristics are:
Control register for the virtual timer.
AArch64 System register CNTV_CTL_EL0 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register CNTV_CTL[31:0].
CNTV_CTL_EL0 is a 64-bit register.

Reserved, RES0.
The status of the timer. This bit indicates whether the timer condition is met:
| ISTATUS | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
Timer condition is not met. |
| 0b1 |
Timer condition is met. |
When the value of the ENABLE bit is 1, ISTATUS indicates whether the timer condition is met. ISTATUS takes no account of the value of the IMASK bit. If the value of ISTATUS is 1 and the value of IMASK is 0 then the timer interrupt is asserted.
When the value of the ENABLE bit is 0, the ISTATUS field is UNKNOWN.
The reset behavior of this field is:
Access to this field is RO.
Timer interrupt mask bit. Permitted values are:
| IMASK | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
Timer interrupt is not masked by the IMASK bit. |
| 0b1 |
Timer interrupt is masked by the IMASK bit. |
For more information, see the description of the ISTATUS bit.
The reset behavior of this field is:
Enables the timer. Permitted values are:
| ENABLE | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
Timer disabled. |
| 0b1 |
Timer enabled. |
Setting this bit to 0 disables the timer output signal, but the timer value accessible from CNTV_TVAL_EL0 continues to count down.
Disabling the output signal might be a power-saving option.
The reset behavior of this field is:
When HCR_EL2.E2H is 1, without explicit synchronization, access from EL3 using the mnemonic CNTV_CTL_EL0 or CNTV_CTL_EL02 are not guaranteed to be ordered with respect to accesses using the other mnemonic.
Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
