A pseudo-locked region does not have a class of service associated with it and thus not tracked in the array of control values maintained as part of the domain. Even so, when the user provides a new bitmask for another resource group it needs to be checked for interference with existing pseudo-locked regions. Additionally only one pseudo-locked region can be created in any cache hierarchy. Introduce two utilities in support of above scenarios: (1) a utility that can be used to test if a given capacity bitmask overlaps with any pseudo-locked regions associated with a particular cache instance, (2) a utility that can be used to test if a pseudo-locked region exists within a particular cache hierarchy.
