Could you please elaborat how you expect to use this info?

virDomainGetVcpus does not call qemuDomainDetectVcpuPids nor does not
update the info in any way. qemuDomainDetectVcpuPids is called just at
startup of the qemu process. As of such this is reporting old data at
any time and thus doesn't really make much sense in the current state.

Please note that calling qemuDomainDetectVcpuPids is not desired in
virDomainGetVcpus. You would need to update just the vcpu states.

Still doing so doesn't seem to make much sense and thus I'd like an
elaboration why this is necessary.

I'm currently refactoring the code to get rid of this structure. (See
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-July/msg00182.html ) So
this is going against that direction.

The name of the variable doesn't make sense. The array refers to vcpus
rather than pids.
