"Fatal LevelDB error" when specifying -blockfilterindex=basic twice #17679

@Talkless

Description

@Talkless

My bitcoin.conf:

$ cat ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf 
[regtest]
blockfilterindex=basic

And if I launch bitcoind specifying ..=basic again, like this:

$ ./bitcoind -chain=regtest -blockfilterindex=basic

I get this error (full log below):

EXCEPTION: 15dbwrapper_error       
Fatal LevelDB error: IO error: lock /home/vincas/.bitcoin/regtest/indexes/blockfilter/basic/db/LOCK: already held by process       
bitcoin in AppInit()

Does not reproduce if I use -blockfilterindex=1 twice.

Expected behavior

Should not fatal-away due to redundant command line arguments.

Actual behavior

bitcoind exits with Fatal LevelDB error.

To reproduce

  • Debian Sid
  • ../configure --with-incompatible-bdb --with-gui=no (incompatile to use Debian's bdb)
  • Have bitcoin.conf as noted before.
  • Run ./bitcoind -chain=regtest -blockfilterindex=basic

System information

Bitcoin Core v0.19.0.1 and from current master
Debian Sid amd64.
Same with bitcoind and bitcoin-qt
