Hi, all,
I am new to the maillist and beagleboard. I want to use this library
at arm's website https://silver.arm.com/browse/OX002. But find the
release note not very helpful. It requires ARM's RVDS tools, but I
don't have the evaluation license for it anymore. Is there a way to go
around this?
Thanks.

you could convert the assembly code from RVDS to gcc syntax

Good luck with that. It's so full of nested macros that the only way I
found of doing that was compiling and disassembling it. The result was
much more readable too.

I guess you just described one way of "converting"....

Yes, one requiring a moderate amount of luck.
