Running fips sample app with aesni_mb and SHA ACVP test vector files. Also occurs with QAT. ./dpdk-fips_validation --vdev=crypto_aesni_mb -- --req-file $FIPS_DIR/$alg/req --rsp-file $FIPS_DIR/$alg/resp_aesni_mb --path-is-folder Output shows invalid memory bug. EAL: Detected CPU lcores: 64 EAL: Detected NUMA nodes: 2 EAL: Detected static linkage of DPDK EAL: Multi-process socket /var/run/dpdk/rte/mp_socket EAL: Selected IOVA mode 'VA' EAL: VFIO support initialized EAL: Using IOMMU type 1 (Type 1) CRYPTODEV: Creating cryptodev crypto_aesni_mb CRYPTODEV: Initialisation parameters - name: crypto_aesni_mb,socket id: 0, max queue pairs: 8 IPSEC_MB: ipsec_mb_create() line 168: IPSec Multi-buffer library version used: 2.0.0 EAL: Error: Invalid memory SHAKE is not supported by these hence I did not catch it.
