IOCTL_HAL_GET_RANDOM_SEED Test (Compact 2013)
3/26/2014
The IOCTL_HAL_GET_RANDOM_SEED Test verifies the correct implementation of IOCTL_HAL_GET_RANDOM_SEED.
Test Prerequisites
Your device must meet the following requirements before you run this test.
As with the other OEM adaptation layer (OAL) IOCTL tests, the IOCTL_HAL_GET_RANDOM_SEED test requires no additional hardware.
- The run-time image must implement IOCTL_HAL_GET_RANDOM_SEED.
The following table shows the software requirements for the test:
Requirements |
Description |
|---|---|
Tux.exe |
Tux test harness, required to execute the test |
ktux.dll |
Required to run kernel-mode tux tests |
kato.dll |
Kato logging engine, required for logging test data |
oaltestioctls.dll |
Library that contains OAL IOCTL Test files |
Subtests
The following table lists the subtests included in this test.
SubTest ID |
Description |
|---|---|
5300 |
Test handling incorrect inbound parameters |
5301 |
Test handling incorrect outbound parameters |
5302 |
Verify that the IOCTL is supported and returns different random seeds on every call |
Setting Up the Test
This test has no additional requirements, beyond the standard test environment setup.
Running the Test
The default command line for this test is as follows:
tux.exe -o -n -d oalTestIoctls.dll -x 5300-5302
Verifying the Test
When the test finishes running, verify that 'PASS' appears in the test log for all subtests.
Troubleshooting the Test
- Verify the implementation of the IOCTL_HAL_GET_RANDOM_SEED.
- Determine the point of failure and record the exact error message. If the source code is available, examine the point of failure in code to see whether you can collect any additional information about the failure domain.
