Description
https://jira.suse.com/browse/SLE-21214
Prepare Kernel module for certification process under FIPS 140-3 standards. Make all code changes necessary, in Kernel, to comply with FIPS 140-3 standards to pass the validation process of NIST and obtain the FIPS certificate for the module.
Confirmed platforms:
x86_64 intel
x86_64 AMD
aarch64
s390x zX (exact platform not yet specify)
Platforms under evaluation, pending for confirmation:
IBM Power 9/10
Algorithms:
7 algorithms:
AES
SHS
HMAC
DRBG
key wrapping (NIST SP800-38F / RFC3394
RSA
SP800-90B ENT
*Note that we identified 8 algorithms at the beginning, including Triple-DES, however we decided to not include it due to its sunset in 2022.
Standards:
The standards to follow are the FIPS 140-3. See:
