.SH NAME
loop\-aes\-runtests \- Testsuite for loop-AES kernel modules and userspace tools
.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B loop\-aes\-runtests
[
.I options
]
.
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR loop\-aes\-runtests
command checks whether loop-AES encryption kernel modules and
userspace tools work correctly, i.e. whether they produce the
expected output for all supported encryption modes and ciphers.
.PP
If this testsuite fails, it may indicate a risk of data corruption
and you should not use the modules and tools. We kindly ask you to
file a bug report in this case and include the output of this
command.
.PP
Internally this command calls the 
.BR tests
target of the Makefile which comes with the loop\-AES distribution.
.PP
This command exits with 0 if the tests completed successfully and
displays "*** Test results ok ***" when running in verbose mode. A
non-zero exit code indicates a problem running one or more tests.  
.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BI \-v
Show detailed output.
