This change would be like going back to the situation (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/343799/25/neutron_lib/api/validators.py) before [1], where the valid values were displayed in the message. Citing feedback from the patchset: "Based on the work done in [1], IIRC we intentionally display the static string 'valid_values' if valid_values_display is not given as valid_values could be excessively large or even contain values that shouldn't be exposed.

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to neutron. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1649885 Title: Valid values in an error message should be visible Status in neutron: Opinion Bug description: Currently, if we specify wrong value with validated 'valid_values'(e.g. ['deny', 'allow', 'all']), following message returns: [example] $ curl -i -X POST -d '{"firewall_rule":{"action": "sleeping_beauty", "protocol":"tcp"}}' -H "x-auth-token:$TOKEN" 192.168.122.181:9696/v2.0/fwaas/firewall_rules {"NeutronError": {"message": "Invalid input for action. Reason: sleeping_beauty is not in valid_values.", "type": "HTTPBadRequest", "detail": ""}} A user cannot understand what is valid_values. Therefore, validate_values[1] should be fixed. In "neutron/api/v2/attributes.py" line 332, it is called by following format[2]: validator(res_dict[attr], attr_vals['validate'][rule]) If validator is validate_values, 'valid_values_display' which is 3rd arguments is always None. Therefore, if an error occurred, it definitely returns "valid_values" in an error message.
