Hi Gilad, Thank you very much for the response. I am an entry level engineer when it comes to Linux Kernel. I have gone through the testmgr. I am not very clear on how to use it for KAT (Known answer tests), MMT and MCT tests. Also I am not clear on how to use it with various test vectors for AES, SHA, HMAC, DRBG and RSA If you point me any example on how to use it, it will provide me a direction to use it.

Are you sure the needed tests are not already implemented in the kernel crypto API testmgr? Gilad -- Gilad Ben-Yossef Chief Coffee Drinker values of β will give rise to dom!
