Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] domain: Improve error output for virDomainListGetStats
Thanks for pointing out the mistake.I will move the check in
qemuConnectGetAllDomainStats, this won't make a old client
cannot use the future server and will give a good error when
use future client to connect to old server.
Thanks,
Luyao Huang

NACK. While they cannot be combined in the current implementation, I
see nothing that would prohibit a future implementation from allowing
the combination (for example, show me all stats for a given domain, but
only if the domain is running). Prohibiting in libvirt-domian.c would
prevent an older RPC client from talking to a newer server that supports
the combination. We should only prohibit combinations in libvirt-*.c if
there is no chance we will ever extend things to allow the combination.
