FIPS errors: finding causes for failure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

? As part of development, still using the fips_hmac test code, this time on a target unit using 1.0.1e, the following errors are shown at the console:

3069614096:error:2D088086:FIPS
routines:FIPS_selftest_x931:selftest
failed:fips_rand_selftest.c:171:

3069614096:error:2D082086:FIPS
routines:FIPS_selftest_cmac:selftest
failed:fips_cmac_selftest.c:178:

3069614096:error:2D080086:FIPS
routines:FIPS_selftest_aes:selftest
failed:fips_aes_selftest.c:97:

3069614096:error:2D090086:FIPS
routines:FIPS_selftest_aes_xts:selftest
failed:fips_aes_selftest.c:383:

3069614096:error:2D083086:FIPS
routines:FIPS_selftest_des:selftest
failed:fips_des_selftest.c:102:

What is the troubleshooting path from here ?? Is it only by going to the appropriate code line ?? In the first case, the FIPS_selftest_x931() is concerned, with the 171 line being: FIPSerr(FIPS_F_FIPS_SELFTEST_X931,FIPS_R_SELFTEST_FAILED).? Which basically means that the actual test code has to be examined. There is documentation in the User Guide, section 6.3.1, although it does not seem to be practical to find out the cause of the failure.? There are seemingly no log messages generated.? Information that would give hints as to why a specific test could fail would be useful.? In this case, there's mention of the V seed value being corrupted but only for simulation mode.

In short, how to find what could be the cause(s) of FIPS test(s) failure(s) ?

Regards.
