Subject: [PATCH v2 10/12] net: sched: act_gact: use acquire/release for tcfg_ptype
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 10:42:32 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901024234.135119-11-ruanjinjie@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901024234.135119-1-ruanjinjie@huawei.com>

Replace the smp_wmb()/smp_rmb() barrier pair with
smp_store_release()/smp_load_acquire() on gact->tcfg_ptype.
tcf_gact_init() publishes tcfg_ptype via release after writing
tcfg_pval/tcfg_paction; tcf_gact_act() acquires it before
dispatching to gact_net_rand()/gact_determ(), ensuring the probability
parameters are visible.

No functional change intended.
