2026-01-12lib/crypto: tests: Add KUnit tests for ML-DSA verificationEric Biggers
Add a KUnit test suite for ML-DSA verification, including the following for each ML-DSA parameter set (ML-DSA-44, ML-DSA-65, and ML-DSA-87): - Positive test (valid signature), using vector imported from leancrypto - Various negative tests: - Wrong length for signature, message, or public key - Out-of-range coefficients in z vector - Invalid encoded hint vector - Any bit flipped in signature, message, or public key - Unit test for the internal function use_hint() - A benchmark ML-DSA inputs and outputs are very large. To keep the size of the tests down, use just one valid test vector per parameter set, and generate the negative tests at runtime by mutating the valid test vector. I also considered importing the test vectors from Wycheproof. I've tested that mldsa_verify() indeed passes all of Wycheproof's ML-DSA test vectors that use an empty context string. However, importing these permanently would add over 6 MB of source. That's too much to be a reasonable addition to the Linux kernel tree for one algorithm. It also wouldn't actually provide much better test coverage than this commit. Another potential issue is that Wycheproof uses the Apache license. Similarly, this also differs from the earlier proposal to import a long list of test vectors from leancrypto. I retained only one valid signature for each algorithm, and I also added (runtime-generated) negative tests which were missing. I think this is a better tradeoff.
