FIPS integrity test failed on RHEL 7.5 with 4.X kernel












0














I have a Dell PowerEdge R7425 with Intel NVME P4500/P4510 NVME drives.



On the 3.10 kernel, the NVME drives throw I/O errors very frequently, and these errors have led to a system halt once already.



I decided to test a newer kernel from the elrepo, and this seemed to resolved the NVME errors entirely.



However, the kernel will only boot when "fips=0" is set, which isn't acceptable to my organization.



When booting with "fips=1" in kernel options, the system fails the FIPS integrity test.



The following is displayed on the console prior to the system halting:




alg: skcipher: Failed to load transform for ecb (cast5): -2




The same skcipher message is also displayed for the following:




cbc, ctr, pcbc




Additionally, the following messages are displayed as well:




alg: hash: Failed to load transform for tgr192: -2




The same hash message is also displayed for the following:




tgr160, tgr128, sha3-224, sha3-256, sha3-384, sha3-512, sm3, xcbc, vmac64, and hmac.




finally, the following is displayed:




tcrypt: one or more tests failed!



dracut: FATAL: FIPS integrity test failed



dracut: Refusing to continue




This has been tested with the following kernels:




4.4.169-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64



4.19.12-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64




The following RPMs for dracut and fips are installed:




dracut-network-033-535.el7.x86_64



dracut-fips-033-535.el7.x86_64



dracut-config-rescue-033-535.el7.x86_64



dracut-033-535.el7.x86_64



fipscheck-lib-1.4.1-6.el7.x86_64



fipscheck-1.4.1-6.el7.x86_64




The following is in /etc/dracut.conf:




omit_dracutmodules+="systemd"



add_dracutmodules+="fips "
