In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sparx5: fix sleep in atomic context in MAC table access
sparx5_set_rx_mode() runs with netif_addr_lock_bh held and iterates dev->mc via __dev_mc_sync(), which per address calls sparx5_mc_sync() / sparx5_mc_unsync() -> sparx5_mact_learn() / sparx5_mact_forget(). These take sparx5->lock, a mutex, and then poll the MAC access command register with readx_poll_timeout(). A mutex may block, which is not allowed from atomic context.
Convert the driver to the new .ndo_set_rx_mode_async callback introduced in commit 3554b4345d85 ("net: introduce ndo_set_rx_mode_async and netdev_rx_mode_work"). The async callback is invoked from process context, so the mutex and sleeping completion poll can remain.
Observed with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES and CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP enabled:
