Yes, That is possible. We could do that.

This is part of /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON# directory which basically has
the information about all the monitoring features. As this is one of the
mon features, I have added it there. Also, this can be used from the
utility(like pqos or rdtset) to check if the configuring the monitor is
supported without looking at individual files. It makes things easier.

Thanks

Babu
