loop-aes-runtests

NAME

loop−aes−runtests − Testsuite for loop-AES kernel modules and userspace tools

SYNOPSIS

loop−aes−runtests [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

The loop−aes−runtests command checks whether loop-AES encryption kernel modules and userspace tools work correctly, i.e. whether they produce the expected output for all supported encryption modes and ciphers.

If this testsuite fails, it may indicate a risk of data corruption and you should not use the modules and tools. We kindly ask you to file a bug report in this case and include the output of this command.

Internally this command calls the tests target of the Makefile which comes with the loop−AES distribution.

This command exits with 0 if the tests completed successfully and displays "*** Test results ok ***" when running in verbose mode. A non-zero exit code indicates a problem running one or more tests.
