I don't think so. Just like we've discussed under one patch of yours, a
function should either report error in all cases or none. And in case of
virProcessGetSchedInfo() the linux version does report error hence the
non-linux variant should report an error too. And in case of
virProcessGetStatInfo() no error is reported for linux version thus
non-linux version shouldn't report an error.
Think of it like this. You have a function that's called from somewhere.
However, the function has two (or more) implementations (e.g. one for
Linux, the other for FreeBSD, another one for MinGW, and so on). And you
call the function like this:
var = func();
if (!var) {
...
now should there be an error reported inside the if()? If all
implementations of the func() are consistent then there's a clear answer.
Hope this sheds more light.
