> We use the following code snippet to get/set xattrs. However, if there are no 
> xattrs have ever been set, the first getXAttr returns null and the second one 
> just throws exception with message like "At least one of the attributes 
> provided was not found.".  This is not expected, we believe they should 
> behave in the same way - i.e either both getXAttr returns null or both 
> getXAttr throw exception with the message "... not found".  We will provide a 
> patch to make them both throw exception.

> attrValueNM = fs.getXAttr(path, "nm");
> if (attrValueNM == null) {
>      fs.setXAttr("nm", DEFAULT_VALUE);
> }
> attrValueNN = fs.getXAttr(path, "nn");
> if (attrValueNN == null) {
>     fs.setXAttr("nn", DEFAULT_VALUE);
> }
