If you have the development keys, then you should typically have the
dummy "secret constant" used in the C2 algorithm as well. Contrary to
popular belief, the C2 algorithm by itself is not proprietary, just the
256 byte secret constant used inside the C2 algorithm. Also, if you want
to just "test" CPRM, you have all the stuff you need (not the real
stuff, but stuff that you can validate using your development keys) in
the name of dummy keys. Some sample input/ output data as well as
related dummy keys and the C2 algorithms are all available at the 4C
website for free download.

I had once (long ago) validated CPRM purely using stuff downloaded from
4C (free download). But my setup was not Linux; rather on a DSP
simulator platform, and was "low level".

But if you are looking for a quick test using a real SD-card, then like
I said, your development keys won't help. You need a real set of valid
"production keys" and these I bet are very hard to get!
