Description

For FIPS 140-3 support, we need to update things.
At least, we need:

  • fipsdrv
    • DSA with smaller Q is obsolete
    • Need to support DSA2VS with Q and hashalgo specified for FIPS 186-4 (update from FIPS 186-2 and 186-3)
  • cavs_driver.pl needs to be updated to support update of fipsdrv

SUSE has patches and version 3235 of cavs_driver.pl, bud it seems that it doesn't support DSA with Q+HASHALGO yet.

The CAVS driver can be safely removed. The certification goes through the ACVP these days so it does not make sense to keep this.
