Hi,
                My question is regarding the library in FIPS mode and the 
FIPS_selftest function.
The current FIPS_selftest routine in 0.9.8k calls sha1, hmac, aes, des, rsa, 
and dsa selftests. It doesn't call any sha256, 512 KAT selftests and I didn't 
find these routines in the source. In FIPS mode I'm allowed to use 
EVP_DigestInit( &ctx, EVP_sha256() ); successfully.

Why is the sha hash algorithms not tested when FIPS_selftest is called?


Thanks,
Rob
