+* **Added self test support to FIPS validation sample application.**
+
+ The FIPS validation sample application has been added the KATS self test
+ functionality. The self test is meant for validating the PMD during the
+ system initialization. During the test a series of security operations
+ (cipher, hash, aead, etc.) are performed and checked the known answers.
+ Once any result does not match the answer the PMD is uninitialized and
+ removed from the system.
