Ah, I think I wanted to check VIR_ERR_NONE here actually.
virDispatchError is called regardless of whether an error is actually
raised, so it may receive a zero'd out/empty virLastErrorObject, which
is what I'm trying to avoid reporting.
I still don't think you are correct in that. If you run
# grep --after 1 virDispatchError libvirt.c
virDispatchError(NULL);
return (-1);
--
virDispatchError(net->conn);
return -1;
--
virDispatchError(NULL);
return (-1);
--
virDispatchError(pool->conn);
return -1;
Then all cases where virDispatchError() is called should be followed by the
return of an error code, 99% of them are -1 or NULL. There are one or two
where we use '0' for error as a special case. I don't see any places where
virDispatchError() is called in a successful return path. So we should
always be invoking the error callback, and ensuring an error is actually
set before doing so.
