Yes, that's true, but that's not the case I'm talking about.
The case I'm talking about is when the user of the command API didn't
set the cmd->outfdptr nor the cmd->outbuf, so both are NULL. In that
case when the chain virCommandRunAsync -> virExecWithHook -> __virExec
is called __virExec will bind stdout of the child to /dev/null instead
of a pipe.
So when changing cmd->outfdptr and cmd->outbuf to non-NULL values
after the call to virCommandRunAsync this will not result in having a
valid FD assigned to cmd->outfd before the call to
virCommandProcessIO. Therefore, virCommandProcessIO won't capture
stdout and stderr for logging purpose.
I still think that the two if blocks should be moved in front of
virCommandRunAsync to achieve the described behavior, in the case that
the command API user didn't request to capture stdout/stderr.
