/* Run FIPS 140 statistical tests on a file */

/*
 * Modified for in-kernel use (API adjustments, conversion from
 * floating to fixed-point chi-sq computation) by Thor Lancelot
 * Simon.
 *
 * A comment on appropriate use of this test and the infamous FIPS 140
 * "continuous output test" (COT):  Both tests are very appropriate for
 * software interfaces to hardware implementations, and will quickly tell
 * you if any number of very bad things have happened to your RNG: perhaps
 * it has come disconnected from the rest of the system, somehow, and you
 * are getting only unconditioned bus noise (read: clock edges from the
 * loudest thing in your system).  Perhaps it has ceased to latch a shift
 * register and is feeding you the same data over and over again.  Perhaps
 * it is not really random at all but was sold to you as such.  Perhaps it
 * is not actually *there* (Intel chipset RNG anyone?) but claims to be,
 * and is feeding you 01010101 on every register read.
 *
 * However, when applied to software RNGs, the situation is quite different.
 * Most software RNGs use a modern hash function or cipher as an output
 * stage.  The resulting bitstream assuredly *should* pass both the
 * "continuous output" (no two consecutive samples identical) and
 * statistical tests: if it does not, the cryptographic primitive or its
 * implementation is terribly broken.
 *
 * There is still value to this test: it will tell you if you inadvertently
 * terribly break your implementation of the software RNG.  Which is a thing
 * that has in fact happened from time to time, even to the careful (or
 * paranoid).  But it will not tell you if there is a problem with the
 * _input_ to that final cryptographic primitive -- the bits that are hashed
 * or the key to the cipher -- and if an adversary can find one, you're
 * still toast.
 *
 * The situation is -- sadly -- similar with hardware RNGs that are
 * certified to one of the standards such as X9.31 or SP800-90.  In these
 * cases the hardware vendor has hidden the actual random bitstream behind
 * a hardware cipher/hash implementation that should, indeed, produce good
 * quality random numbers that pass will pass this test -- whether the
 * underlying bitstream is trustworthy or not.
 *
 * However, this test (and the COT) will still probably tell you if the
 * thing fell off the bus, etc.  Which is a thing that has in fact
 * happened from time to time, even to the fully certified...
 *
 * This module does not (yet?) implement the Continuous Output Test.  When
 * I call that test "infamous", it's because it obviously reduces the
 * backtracking resistance of any implementation that includes it -- the
 * implementation has to store the entire previous RNG output in order to
 * perform the required comparison; not just periodically but all the time
 * when operating at all.  Nonetheless, it has obvious value for
 * hardware implementations where it will quickly and surely detect a
 * severe failure; but as of this writing several of the latest comments
 * on SP800-90 recommend removing any requirement for the COT and my
 * personal tendency is to agree.  It's easy to add if you really need it.
