CVE-2023-53133

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf, sockmap: Fix an infinite loop error when len is 0 in tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser()

When the buffer length of the recvmsg system call is 0, we got the flollowing soft lockup problem:

The logic in tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser is as follows:

msg_bytes_ready: copied = sk_msg_recvmsg(sk, psock, msg, len, flags); if (!copied) { wait data; goto msg_bytes_ready; }

In this case, copied always is 0, the infinite loop occurs.

According to the Linux system call man page, 0 should be returned in this case. Therefore, in tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), if the length is 0, directly return. Also modify several other functions with the same problem.
