Compiling node with FIPS #2666

Description

@D4V3M0NK
  • Node.js Version: 12.x
  • OS: Ubuntu 18.04.04-FIPS
  • Scope (install, code, runtime, meta, other?): compile
  • Module (and version) (if relevant):OpenSSL 1.1.1

I'm attempting to compile node (12.x) on Ubuntu 18 with the recently certified OpenSSL module and when running ./configure --openssl-fips=/usr/include/openssl, I get the immediate error message

ERROR: FIPS is not supported in this version of Node.js

From #753 I was under the impression that compilation is possible if I had the FIPS libraries installed on a FIPS enabled kernel (which Bionic now is, as of 4/29/20). Am I sadly mistaken? Maybe moving to a later version of node would help? I used git clone -b v12.x..., which I presume is 12.16.3

Can someone give me some guidance please?
