icainfo - print information about cryptographic functions supported by libica

icainfo [-v | --version] [-h | --help] [-c | --list-curves]

icainfo prints a table that shows libica's support for various cryptographic algorithms and information about FIPS support.

The icainfo output also indicates, whether it is in an error state. Algorithms that are not FIPS approved are marked as blocked in both table columns when running in FIPS mode. All algorithms are marked as blocked when libica is in an error state.

Available hardware support is divided into two columns: dynamic hardware means crypto cards, static hardware support means CPACF. Software support is provided via openssl.

A shortened sample output is given below:


Cryptographic algorithm support ------------------------------------------------------
| hardware |
function | dynamic | static | software ---------------+------------+------------+------------
SHA-1 | no | yes | yes
SHA-224 | no | yes | yes
SHA-256 | no | yes | yes
SHA-384 | no | yes | yes
SHA-512 | no | yes | yes
GHASH | no | yes | no
P_RNG | blocked | blocked | blocked
DRBG-SHA-512 | no | yes | yes
RSA ME | yes | no | yes
RSA CRT | yes | no | yes
... ------------------------------------------------------ Built-in FIPS support: FIPS mode active.
