The FIPS module and test suite software (fipsalgtest.pl) are designed to work with exactly those algorithm tests relevant to the associated validations (#1747/2398/2473). The test labs generate a unique set of test vectors for each platform validation; those test vectors must be of the expected format to be successfully processed. Often they are not, either because they we incorrectly specified or due to errors. Figuring out such discrepancies can be lots of fun (not!). You will want to compare your test vectors with a known good set from http://openssl.com/testing/validation-2.0/testvectors/. Pick a recent set, as the format of the test vectors changes over time. Note that as a result frequent adjustment of fipsalgtest.pl is often necessary. -Steve M. -- Steve Marquess OpenSSL Validation Services, Inc. 1829 Mount Ephraim Road Adamstown, MD 21710 USA +1 301 874 2571 marquess@xxxxxxxxxxx gpg/pgp key: http://openssl.com/docs/0x6D1892F5.asc -- openssl-users mailing list To unsubscribe: https://mta.openssl.org/mailman/listinfo/openssl-users
