Pacemaker determines if a ocf resource is reloadable by reading the resource script's meta_data() output.  Take a look at the pacemaker/Dummy script in a text editor.  The meta_data() function returns documentation on what the agent is capable of in xml. Pacemaker is looking through the xml output of that meta_data() function for <actions><action name='reload'/></actions> to determine if the resource can reload.  Then pacemaker looks through the <parameters/> tags for parameters with unique="0" to determine what parameters are allowed to be reloaded.

Hope that helps.
