BTW, since this new function simply wraps the existing
virDomainObjIsActive with error reporting, maybe a better name is
virDomainObjIsActiveWithError. Just a suggestion. Perhaps Cole or others
have an opinion about the name.

When all else fails, go with longer names ;-)
I would think "eventually" there's two scenarios you're trying to cover
1. Common action/message if active is unexpected:
if (virDomainObjIsActive(vm)) {
virReportError(VIR_ERR_OPERATION_INVALID,
"%s", _("Domain is already running"));
goto cleanup;
}
2. Common action/message if inactive is unexpected:
if (!virDomainObjIsActive(vm)) {
virReportError(VIR_ERR_OPERATION_INVALID,
"%s", _("Domain is not running"));
goto cleanup;
}
Although changing virDomainObjIsActive would seem to be not feasible as
there are callers that don't care about messaging the answer; however,
what if we added usage of va_args which would then message based on
whether a 2nd/3rd boolean arg exists.
e.g.
va_start(ap, vm);
if ((wantError = va_arg(ap, int))) {
if ((isRunning = va_arg(ap, int)))
virReportError(... "Domain is already running");
else
virReportError(... "Domain is not running");
}
For those callers that care, the arguments would be "true" if you want a
message and "true" if that message should indicate already running or
either "false" or not provided if not running. Leaving out a few key
details I'm sure, but I've seen other patches that expand the APIs
created for the simple purpose of providing the error message not get
accepted, so this is just another "idea".
