Dear NIST and broader PQC community,
I'm adding support for ML-KEM ACVP KATs in my C++ zero-dependency header-only implementation @
https://github.com/itzmeanjan/ml-kem
.
I'm looking at internalProjection.json file @
https://github.com/usnistgov/ACVP-Server/blob/d98cad66639bf9d0822129c4bcae7a169fcf9ca6/gen-val/json-files/ML-KEM-encapDecap-FIPS203/internalProjection.json
, where in "tgID-{4,5,6}" tests, it doesn't have any "
testPassed
" field. It's present in other "VAL" tests, which is really helpful as I'm trying to parse this JSON file into another plaintext format.
Would not it make sense to add a "testPassed" field for those three categories of tests? Or am I missing some other way of parsing these files?
To give some more context, I'm using
https://github.com/itzmeanjan/ml-kem/blob/43c7e02b4f652d2e89af5fcf525322b5578d0071/kats/scripts/sync_acvp_kats.sh
sort of script to parse to desired format.
Kind regards,
Anjan
