[openssl-users] Verifying the sha1 of fipscanister.o with what is embedded in libcrypto.so

[Ethan Rahn]

Is there a reason why you cannot build it from a controlled build
environment and record the hash of the final .so?

It seems that it would be pretty non-trivial if not impossible to pull a .o
file from a .so in the exact same format that it went in, such that you
could check the hash. Being able to check if a .c file is in the same state
in the .so afterwards seems pretty much impossible given all the things
that would change in the code with compiling and linking in between the .c
state and the final .so state.
