You can concoct more exotic examples, containing more than one fence, although this quickly leads to diminishing returns in terms of complexity.

This is because P0's store gets overwritten by P1's store since x = 2 at the end (a coe link), the smp_wmb() ensures that P1's store to x propagates to P2 before the -store to y does (the first fence), the store to y propagates to P2 +store to y does (the first cumul-fence), the store to y propagates to P2 before P2's load and store execute, P2's smp_store_release() guarantees that the stores to x and y both propagate to P0 before the -store to z does (the second fence), and P0's load executes after the +store to z does (the second cumul-fence), and P0's load executes after the store to z has propagated to P0 (an rfe link).
