Subject: [PATCH v2 02/10] sched: Use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() for preempt_dynamic_mode
Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 13:31:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260511120627.176946327@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260511113104.563854162@infradead.org

Robots figured out you can read and write this concurrently and got
'upset'. Gemini even noted sched_dynamic_show() can generate
'confusing' output if it observed different values during the
printing.
