[PATCH 3/3] lib/crypto: aes: Add FIPS self-tests for GCM and CCM

Eric Biggers <[email protected]> Sun, 2 Aug 2026 15:24:08 -0700
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-crypto,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
Upcoming changes will wire up architecture-optimized implementations of
GCM and CCM.  FIPS labs can consider such designs to meet the threshold
for separate self-tests to be needed.

Therefore, add FIPS self-tests for encryption and decryption in these
modes.
