Hi Brian,

I successfully built NSS 3.93 for SLES 12 several weeks ago.

Glad it worked out!

I'm now trying to build NSS 3.95, and am running into challenges.

Among them:

   ldvector.c:435:5: error: 'BL_FIPSRepeatIntegrityCheck' undeclared here (not 
in a function)
     435 |     BL_FIPSRepeatIntegrityCheck
        |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        ../../coreconf/rules.mk:292: recipe for target
        
'Linux4.12_x86_64_gcc-9_glibc_PTH_64_OPT.OBJ/Linux_SINGLE_SHLIB/ldvector.o' 
failed

When I paw through the source, I see this in ./nss/lib/freebl/blapi.h:

   /* Unconditionally run the integrity check. */
   extern void BL_FIPSRepeatIntegrityCheck(void);

What would provide this function?

Our FIPS patches, or more specifically nss-fips-constructor-self-tests.patch

I'm not sure, if you really want to continue with the whole set of fips-patches we have. You can find the patches rebased to at least 3.94 here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/mozilla:Factory/mozilla-nss

But I would suggest, you simply do not apply them at all, if you are not after a FIPS-certification. They are currently kept alive only in a minimal-effort kind of way for newer NSS-versions. They should only be used for the ESR-version of NSS.

Cheers,
Martin
