Wouldn't it be easier to simply invalidate the cache every time libvirtd is restarted? If libvirtd keeps /dev/kvm open all the time, this would also cover features affected by KVM module reloads.
Invalidating the cache on every restart defeats the very purpose of having a cache in the first place. Probing for capabilities slows startup of the daemon and that is what required introduction of a cache.
Can't libvirtd query CPU capabilities only when clients ask for that information the first time? -- Eduardo
