Hi, I think you need to be a bit carefull with rejecting unknown attributes in create callbacks. This since it could introduce compatibility problems if you have exended a class with new attributes (schema change). Such instances could end up being installed on a system running a vesion of the AMF that was older. Obviously that old version can not do anything with an unknown config atribute. But it could ignoere it rather that reject it if the attribute Has the null value or if it is equal to the default value.
The imm server side will append any missing attributes to a create callback (missing in the sense that the om-user did not provide any value for the attribute). See: http://devel.opensaf.org/ticket/847 Checking match for the default is possible by doing a dynamic lookup of the class. This is a bit cumbersome.. But I would at least recommend ignoring an unknown atteribute in a create callback that has the null value. For modify callbacks you should return ERR_BAD_OPERATION as suggested because the imm server Does not add any missing attributes to modify callbacks. /AndersBj -----Original Message----- From: Gary Lee [mailto:gary....@dektech.com.au] Sent: den 29 maj 2014 06:09 To: Hans Feldt; nagendr...@oracle.com Cc: opensaf-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [devel] [PATCH 0 of 1] Review Request for amfd: Remove asserts from validation routines [#849] Summary: amfd: Remove asserts from validation routines [#849] Review request for Trac Ticket(s): 849 Peer Reviewer(s): AMF maintainers Pull request to: Affected branch(es): opensaf-4.3.x Development branch: opensaf-4.3.x -------------------------------- Impacted area Impact y/n -------------------------------- Docs n Build system n RPM/packaging n Configuration files n Startup scripts n SAF services y OpenSAF services n Core libraries n Samples n Tests n Other n Comments (indicate scope for each "y" above): --------------------------------------------- This is the patch for opensaf-4.3.x. changeset 88b384c6c11b2efacae48f0347ab392f81c5100f Author: Gary Lee <gary....@dektech.com.au> Date: Thu, 29 May 2014 13:57:14 +1000 amfd: Remove asserts from validation routines [#849] When an unknown attribute in encountered in various ccb completed callbacks, sometimes an assert is called. In other cases, the operation is rejected, or ignored. This patches replaces the asserts, and instead returns SA_AIS_ERR_BAD_OPERATION to the IMMA. In addition, some asserts in runtime attribute callbacks have been replaced with error messages.
