There is a better fix in the works, but it's going to be way bigger than this (hence the XXX note there), so for the time being let's workaround this. And in order not to slow down the domain starting, only get the capabilities if there are any cachetunes. Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1540780This BZ describes a crash if the filesystem is remounted, but you are attempting to fix this not by fixing the code that crashed but by re-loading the information if possibly somebody remounted it. This does not seem to be the correct fix since you still have a race window, where the options can be changed after the refresh is executed and prior to using them in the code where it actually crashed.
Yeah, I'm looking at that as well. It will need a restructuring (moving some conf code to util - it'll also look nicer), but fix for exactly what is happening here is enough for now. Martin
