These\ntake sparx5->lock, a mutex, and then poll the MAC access command\nregister with readx_poll_timeout(). A mutex may block, which is not\nallowed from atomic context.\n\nConvert the driver to the new .ndo_set_rx_mode_async callback introduced\nin commit 3554b4345d85 (\"net: introduce ndo_set_rx_mode_async and\nnetdev_rx_mode_work\"). The async callback is invoked from process\ncontext, so the mutex and sleeping completion poll can remain.\n\nObserved with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK,\nCONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES and CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP enabled:\n\n  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:591\n  in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 217, name: ip\n  preempt_count: 201, expected: 0\n  Call trace:\n   __might_resched+0x144/0x248\n   __might_sleep+0x48/0x7c\n   __mutex_lock+0x74/0x850\n   mutex_lock_nested+0x24/0x30\n   sparx5_mact_learn+0x78/0x100\n   sparx5_mc_sync+0x40/0x54\n   __hw_addr_sync_dev+0xc4/0x170\n   sparx5_set_rx_mode+0x4c/0x58\n   __dev_set_rx_mode+0x64/0xa4\n   __dev_open+0x1ec/0x26c","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/648d196ccc03ae3b04402ae71ffa44959a85e88f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b62793a7baeea9cf20209c9fd2e333311aaf3b8d"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:55:23.253742848+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-90098","score":0.00198,"percentile":0.0942,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
