I want to show an errormessage when the macro is undefined. It requires expansion of \xmlatt{#1}{name}.
\ifdefined\xmlatt{#1}{name} didn't worked nor \expandafter\ifdefined
I thought of the expanding \doif's.

See the attached output of this xmlsetup attached.

\startxmlsetups hvdm:system:macrocall
%
\doifelsedefined{\xmlatt{#1}{name}}
{
%
%macro without argument
%
\ifxmlattempty{#1}{arg}
\begincsname\xmlatt{#1}{name}\endcsname
%
%macro with argument
%
\else
\begincsname\xmlatt{#1}{name}\endcsname{\xmlatt{#1}{arg}}
\fi
}
{
\ERROR{macro \xmlatt{#1}{name} is not defined}
}
\stopxmlsetups

I have no idea what's wrong in your code without a proper minimal example. As the example below shows you can use \doifelsedefined in combination with \xmlatt.

\startbuffer[ifdefined]
<document>
  <macro name="bold" arg="text"/>
  <macro name="hvdm" arg="text"/>
</document>
\stopbuffer

\startxmlsetups xml:document
  \xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups

\startxmlsetups xml:macro

  \doifelsedefined{\xmlatt{#1}{name}}
    {\texdefinition{\xmlatt{#1}{name}}{\xmlatt{#1}{arg}}}
    {{\tttf macro \tex{\xmlatt{#1}{name}} not defined}}

% \ifcsname\xmlatt{#1}{name}\endcsname
%   \lastnamedcs{\xmlatt{#1}{arg}}
% \else
%   %
% \fi

\stopxmlsetups

\startxmlsetups xml:hvdm
\xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{document|macro}{xml:*}
\stopxmlsetups

\xmlregistersetup{xml:hvdm}

\starttext
\xmlprocessbuffer{hvdm}{ifdefined}{}
\stoptext
