The Kconfig help text for CRYPTO_FIPS says
config CRYPTO_FIPS bool "FIPS 200 compliance" ... help This option enables the fips boot option which is required if you want the system to operate in a FIPS 200 certification. You should say no unless you know what this is. This seems confusing to me since it says "compliance" in one place and "certification" in another place. And AFAICT, those two words don't mean the same thing as far as NIST & FIPS are concerned. Should it say "compliance" in both places? E.g. help This option enables the fips boot option which is required if you want the system to operate in FIPS 200 compliance mode. You should say no unless you know what this is. thanks. -- ~Randy
