Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) CryptoDev Validation
====================================================================
Overview
--------
Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) are publicly announced standards
developed by the United States federal government for use in computer systems by
non-military government agencies and government contractors.
This application is used to parse and perform symmetric cryptography
computation to the NIST Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP) and
Automated Crypto Validation Protocol (ACVP) test vectors.
For an algorithm implementation to be listed on a cryptographic module
validation certificate as an Approved security function, the algorithm
implementation must meet all the requirements of FIPS 140-2 (in case of CAVP)
and FIPS 140-3 (in case of ACVP) and must successfully complete the
cryptographic algorithm validation process.
Limitations
-----------
CAVP
----
* The version of request file supported is ``CAVS 21.0``.
* If the header comment in a ``.req`` file does not contain a Algo tag
i.e ``AES,TDES,GCM`` you need to manually add it into the header comment for
example::
# VARIABLE KEY - KAT for CBC / # TDES VARIABLE KEY - KAT for CBC
* The application does not supply the test vectors. The user is expected to
obtain the test vector files from `CAVP
<https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/cryptographic-algorithm-validation-
program/block-ciphers>`_ website. To obtain the ``.req`` files you need to
email a person from the NIST website and pay for the ``.req`` files.
The ``.rsp`` files from the site can be used to validate and compare with
the ``.rsp`` files created by the FIPS application.
* Supported test vectors
* AES-CBC (128,192,256) - GFSbox, KeySbox, MCT, MMT
* AES-GCM (128,192,256) - EncryptExtIV, Decrypt
* AES-CCM (128) - VADT, VNT, VPT, VTT, DVPT
* AES-CMAC (128) - Generate, Verify
* HMAC (SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512)
* TDES-CBC (1 Key, 2 Keys, 3 Keys) - MMT, Monte, Permop, Subkey, Varkey,
VarText
ACVP
----
* The application does not supply the test vectors. The user is expected to
obtain the test vector files from `ACVP <https://pages.nist.gov/ACVP>`_
website.
* Supported test vectors
* AES-CBC (128,192,256) - AFT, MCT
* AES-GCM (128,192,256) - AFT
* AES-CMAC (128,192,256) - AFT
* AES-XTS (128,256) - AFT
* HMAC (SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512)
* SHA (1, 256, 384, 512) - AFT, MCT
Application Information
-----------------------
If a ``.req`` is used as the input file after the application is finished
running it will generate a response file or ``.rsp``. Differences between the
two files are, the ``.req`` file has missing information for instance if doing
encryption you will not have the cipher text and that will be generated in the
response file. Also if doing decryption it will not have the plain text until it
finished the work and in the response file it will be added onto the end of each
operation.
The application can be run with a ``.rsp`` file and what the outcome of that
will be is it will add a extra line in the generated ``.rsp`` which should be
the same as the ``.rsp`` used to run the application, this is useful for
validating if the application has done the operation correctly.
Compiling the Application
-------------------------
* Compile Application
To compile the sample application see :doc:`compiling`.
* Run ``dos2unix`` on the request files
.. code-block:: console
dos2unix AES/req/*
dos2unix GCM/req/*
dos2unix CCM/req/*
dos2unix CMAC/req/*
dos2unix HMAC/req/*
dos2unix TDES/req/*
dos2unix SHA/req/*
Running the Application
-----------------------
The application requires a number of command line options:
.. code-block:: console
./dpdk-fips_validation [EAL options]
-- --req-file FILE_PATH/FOLDER_PATH
--rsp-file FILE_PATH/FOLDER_PATH
[--cryptodev DEVICE_NAME] [--cryptodev-id ID] [--path-is-folder]
--mbuf-dataroom DATAROOM_SIZE
where,
* req-file: The path of the request file or folder, separated by
``path-is-folder`` option.
* rsp-file: The path that the response file or folder is stored. separated by
``path-is-folder`` option.
* cryptodev: The name of the target DPDK Crypto device to be validated.
* cryptodev-id: The id of the target DPDK Crypto device to be validated.
* path-is-folder: If presented the application expects req-file and rsp-file
are folder paths.
* mbuf-dataroom: By default the application creates mbuf pool with maximum
possible data room (65535 bytes). If the user wants to test scatter-gather
list feature of the PMD he or she may set this value to reduce the dataroom
size so that the input data may be divided into multiple chained mbufs.
To run the application in linux environment to test one AES FIPS test data
file for crypto_aesni_mb PMD, issue the command:
.. code-block:: console
$ ./dpdk-fips_validation --vdev crypto_aesni_mb --
--req-file /PATH/TO/REQUEST/FILE.req --rsp-file ./PATH/TO/RESPONSE/FILE.rsp
--cryptodev crypto_aesni_mb
To run the application in linux environment to test all AES-GCM FIPS test
data files in one folder for crypto_aesni_gcm PMD, issue the command:
.. code-block:: console
$ ./dpdk-fips_validation --vdev crypto_aesni_gcm0 --
--req-file /PATH/TO/REQUEST/FILE/FOLDER/
--rsp-file ./PATH/TO/RESPONSE/FILE/FOLDER/
--cryptodev-id 0 --path-is-folder
