Subject: ELIBBAD vs. ENOENT for ciphers not allowed by FIPS
Date: Wed, 22 Dec 2021 20:11:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <YcN4S7NIV9F0XXPP@pevik> (raw)
Hi Herbert,
do I understand the crypto code correctly, that although crypto/testmgr.c in
alg_test() returns -EINVAL for non-fips allowed algorithms (that means
failing crypto API test) the API in crypto_alg_lookup() returns -ELIBBAD for
failed test?
Why ELIBBAD and not ENOENT like for missing ciphers? To distinguish between
missing cipher and disabled one due fips?
Kind regards,
Petr
