23=head1 DESCRIPTION
24
25These methods are intended for use by provider implementors, to display
26diagnostic information during self testing.
27
28OSSL_SELF_TEST_new() allocates an opaque B<OSSL_SELF_TEST> object that has a
29callback and callback argument associated with it.
30
31The callback I<cb> may be triggered multiple times by a self test to indicate
32different phases.
33
34OSSL_SELF_TEST_free() frees the space allocated by OSSL_SELF_TEST_new().
35
36OSSL_SELF_TEST_onbegin() may be inserted at the start of a block of self test
37code. It can be used for diagnostic purposes.
38If this method is called the callback I<cb> will receive the following
39L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> object.
40
41=over 4
42
43=item "st-phase" (B<OSSL_PROV_PARAM_SELF_TEST_PHASE>) <UTF8 string>
44
45The value is the string "Start"
46
47=back
48
49OSSL_SELF_TEST_oncorrupt_byte() may be inserted just after the known answer is
50calculated, but before the self test compares the result. The first byte in the
51passed in array of I<bytes> will be corrupted if the callback returns 0,
52otherwise it leaves the array unaltered. It can be used for failure testing.
53The I<type> and I<desc> can be used to identify an individual self test to
54target for failure testing.
55If this method is called the callback I<cb> will receive the following
56L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> object.
57
58=over 4
59
60=item "st-phase" (B<OSSL_PROV_PARAM_SELF_TEST_PHASE>) <UTF8 string>
61
62The value is the string "Corrupt"
63
64=back
65
66OSSL_SELF_TEST_onend() may be inserted at the end of a block of self test code
67just before cleanup to indicate if the test passed or failed. It can be used for
68diagnostic purposes.
69If this method is called the callback I<cb> will receive the following
70L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> object.
71
72=over 4
73
74=item "st-phase" (B<OSSL_PROV_PARAM_SELF_TEST_PHASE>) <UTF8 string>
75
76The value of the string is "Pass" if I<ret> is non zero, otherwise it has the
77value "Fail".
78
79=back
80
81After the callback I<cb> has been called the values that were set by
82OSSL_SELF_TEST_onbegin() for I<type> and I<desc> are set to the value "None".
83
84If OSSL_SELF_TEST_onbegin(), OSSL_SELF_TEST_oncorrupt_byte() or
85OSSL_SELF_TEST_onend() is called the following additional L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> are
86passed to the callback.
87
88=over 4
89
90=item "st-type" (B<OSSL_PROV_PARAM_SELF_TEST_TYPE>) <UTF8 string>
91
92The value is setup by the I<type> passed to OSSL_SELF_TEST_onbegin().
93This allows the callback to identify the type of test being run.
94
95=item "st-desc" (B<OSSL_PROV_PARAM_SELF_TEST_DESC>) <UTF8 string>
96
97The value is setup by the I<type> passed to OSSL_SELF_TEST_onbegin().
98This allows the callback to identify the sub category of the test being run.
99
100=back
101
102=head1 RETURN VALUES
103
104OSSL_SELF_TEST_new() returns the allocated B<OSSL_SELF_TEST> object, or NULL if
105it fails.
106
107OSSL_SELF_TEST_oncorrupt_byte() returns 1 if corruption occurs, otherwise it
108returns 0.
109
110=head1 EXAMPLES
111
112A single self test could be set up in the following way:
113
114    OSSL_SELF_TEST *st = NULL;
115    OSSL_CALLBACK *cb;
116    void *cbarg;
117    int ok = 0;
118    unsigned char out[EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE];
119    unsigned int out_len = 0;
120    EVP_MD_CTX *ctx = EVP_MD_CTX_new();
121    EVP_MD *md = EVP_MD_fetch(libctx, t->algorithm, NULL);
122
123    /*
124     * Retrieve the callback - will be NULL if not set by the application via
125     * OSSL_SELF_TEST_set_callback().
126     */
127    OSSL_SELF_TEST_get_callback(libctx, &cb, &cbarg);
128
129    st = OSSL_SELF_TEST_new(cb, cb_arg);
130
131    /* Trigger the optional callback */
132    OSSL_SELF_TEST_onbegin(st, OSSL_SELF_TEST_TYPE_KAT_DIGEST,
133                           OSSL_SELF_TEST_DESC_MD_SHA2);
134
135    if (!EVP_DigestInit_ex(ctx, md, NULL)
136        || !EVP_DigestUpdate(ctx, pt, pt_len)
137        || !EVP_DigestFinal(ctx, out, &out_len))
138        goto err;
139
140    /* Optional corruption - If the application callback returns 0 */
141    OSSL_SELF_TEST_oncorrupt_byte(st, out);
142
143    if (out_len != t->expected_len
144        || memcmp(out, t->expected, out_len) != 0)
145        goto err;
146    ok = 1;
147  err:
148    OSSL_SELF_TEST_onend(st, ok);
149    EVP_MD_free(md);
150    EVP_MD_CTX_free(ctx);
151
152Multiple self test's can be set up in a similar way by repeating the pattern of
153OSSL_SELF_TEST_onbegin(), OSSL_SELF_TEST_oncorrupt_byte(), OSSL_SELF_TEST_onend()
154for each test.
