[PATCH v3 0/4] Check if FIPS mode is enabled when running selftests

From: Magali Lemes
Date: Mon Jun 12 2023 - 08:51:35 EST


Some test cases from net/tls, net/fcnal-test and net/vrf-xfrm-tests
that rely on cryptographic functions to work and use non-compliant FIPS
algorithms fail in FIPS mode.

In order to allow these tests to pass in a wider set of kernels,
- for net/tls, skip the test variants that use the ChaCha20-Poly1305
and SM4 algorithms, when FIPS mode is enabled;
- for net/fcnal-test, skip the MD5 tests, when FIPS mode is enabled;
- for net/vrf-xfrm-tests, replace the algorithms that are not
FIPS-compliant with compliant ones.

Changes in v3:
- Add new commit to allow skipping test directly from test setup.
- No need to initialize static variable to zero.
- Skip tests during test setup only.
- Use the constructor attribute to set fips_enabled before entering
main().

Changes in v2:
- Add R-b tags.
- Put fips_non_compliant into the variants.
- Turn fips_enabled into a static global variable.
- Read /proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled only once at main().
