** [tickets:#1135] Imm: Missing validity check on 'objectName' in 
saImmOmSearchInitialize**

**Status:** review
**Milestone:** 4.3.3

If one compares saImmOmSearchInitialize with saImmOmAccessorGet one can see
this check in accessorGet (4.4 version of the code):

        if ((objectName == NULL) || (objectName->length == 0) ||
         (objectName->length >= SA_MAX_NAME_LENGTH)) {
                TRACE_2("ERR_INVALID_PARAM: Incorrect parameter contents: 
objectName");
                TRACE_LEAVE();
                return SA_AIS_ERR_INVALID_PARAM;
        }

But no corresponding check on 'rootName' in the searchInitialize code.
The check can not be identical, because the 'rootName' argument in 
searchInitialize can be NULL if the search is to be global. 
But if rootName is not NULL then a corresponding check must be done.
In addition, if rootName is not NULL, we must allow the case of the 
root being empty (rootName->length == 0).
For backwards compatibility we also have to allow the case: 

 ((rootName->length !=0) && strnlen(rootName->value, rootName->length)==0)

The check that rootName->lenght is within bounds is here assumed to have 
been done earlier.

This bug has apparently always been there. It has nothing to do with 4.5
or long-names etc, but it will impact code that is long-name addapted in 4.5.
