The call-chain is:

__GI___libc_recvfrom                                                   
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe                                         
do_syscall_64                                                          
__x64_sys_recvfrom                                                     
__sys_recvfrom                                                         
inet_recvmsg                                                           
udp_recvmsg                                                            
__check_object_size

udp_recvmsg() actually calls copy_to_iter() (inlined) and the latters
calls check_copy_size() (again, inlined).

Cheers,

Paolo
