:mrdocs:

Update, for the specified `sequenceNumber`, the cache for those rules indicated by the specified `relevantRulesMask` bit mask in the specified set of `rules`, by evaluating those rules for the specified `attributes`; return the bit mask indicating those rules that are known to be active. If a bit in the returned bit mask value is set to 1, the rule at the corresponding index in `rules` is "active"; however, if a bit is set to 0, the corresponding rule is either not active _or_ has not been evaluated. This operation does, however, guarantee that all the rules indicated by the `relevantRulesMask` _will_ be evaluated. A particular rule is considered "active" if all of its attributes are satisfied by `attributes` (i.e., if `Rule::evaluate` returns `true` for `attributes`). The behavior is undefined unless `rules` is not modified during this operation (i.e., any lock associated with `rules` must be locked during this operation).
