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.

        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.

Reviewer Checklist:
-------------------
[Submitters: make sure that your review doesn't trigger any checkmarks!]


Your checkin has not passed review because (see checked entries):

___ Your RR template is generally incomplete; it has too many blank entries
    that need proper data filled in.

___ You have failed to nominate the proper persons for review and push.

___ Your patches do not have proper short+long header

___ You have grammar/spelling in your header that is unacceptable.

___ You have exceeded a sensible line length in your headers/comments/text.

___ You have failed to put in a proper Trac Ticket # into your commits.

___ You have incorrectly put/left internal data in your comments/files
    (i.e. internal bug tracking tool IDs, product names etc)

___ You have not given any evidence of testing beyond basic build tests.
    Demonstrate some level of runtime or other sanity testing.

___ You have ^M present in some of your files. These have to be removed.

___ You have needlessly changed whitespace or added whitespace crimes
    like trailing spaces, or spaces before tabs.

___ You have mixed real technical changes with whitespace and other
    cosmetic code cleanup changes. These have to be separate commits.

___ You need to refactor your submission into logical chunks; there is
    too much content into a single commit.

___ You have extraneous garbage in your review (merge commits etc)

___ You have giant attachments which should never have been sent;
    Instead you should place your content in a public tree to be pulled.

___ You have too many commits attached to an e-mail; resend as threaded
    commits, or place in a public tree for a pull.

___ You have resent this content multiple times without a clear indication
    of what has changed between each re-send.

___ You have failed to adequately and individually address all of the
    comments and change requests that were proposed in the initial review.

___ You have a misconfigured ~/.hgrc file (i.e. username, email etc)

___ Your computer have a badly configured date and time; confusing the
    the threaded patch review.

___ Your changes affect IPC mechanism, and you don't present any results
    for in-service upgradability test.

___ Your changes affect user manual and documentation, your patch series
    do not contain the patch that updates the Doxygen manual.
