The code in qemuDomainObjPrivateXMLParseVcpu for parsing the 'idstr' string was comparing the overall boolean result against 0 which was always true qemu/qemu_domain.c: In function 'qemuDomainObjPrivateXMLParseVcpu': qemu/qemu_domain.c:1482:59: error: comparison of constant '0' with boolean expression is always false [-Werror=bool-compare] if ((idstr && virStrToLong_uip(idstr, NULL, 10, &idx)) < 0 || ^ It was further performing two distinct error checks in the same conditional and reporting a single error message, which was misleading in one of the two cases. This splits the conditional check into two parts with distinct error messages and fixes the logic error.
