Question: Earliest kernel version with FIPS-compliant DRBG?

[Shivam Kumar]

Hi,

I recently came across a discussion on the mailing list and noted some 
Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML) patches pertaining to the enhancement 
of the kernel's Deterministic Random Bit Generator (DRBG) to meet FIPS 
(Federal Information Processing Standards) compliance. However, I am 
currently uncertain about the status of this endeavor, specifically 
whether the kernel's DRBG has indeed been rendered FIPS-compliant.

Could you kindly provide clarification on the current status of the 
kernel's DRBG in this regard? Furthermore, if it has been made 
FIPS-compliant, I am keen to ascertain the earliest kernel version that 
incorporates this FIPS-compliant DRBG.

Thanks,
Shivam
