Yes, I wrote it from scratch. It does a similar thing to the BoringSSL
FIPS tool, but this tool handles uploading the result from a file and
downloading the final verdict.
I haven't used the BoringSSL tool, but the bottom of the document says
it doesn't currently support uploading results from a file.
The tool I initially tried was libacvp, but I couldn't use it to
download only the vector sets that were supported by the FIPS
validation example in DPDK.
