Bring linux-user write(2) handling into line with linux for the case of a 0-byte write with a NULL buffer. Based on a patch originally written by Zhuowei Zhang. Addresses https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1716292. >From Zhuowei Zhang's patch (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-09/msg08073.html): Linux returns success for the special case of calling write with a zero-length NULL buffer: compiling and running int main() { ssize_t ret = write(STDOUT_FILENO, NULL, 0); fprintf(stderr, "write returned %ld\n", ret); return 0; } gives "write returned 0" when run directly, but "write returned -1" in QEMU. This commit checks for this situation and returns success if found. Subsequent discussion raised the following questions (and my answers): - Q. Should TARGET_NR_read pass through to safe_read in this situation too? A. I'm wary of changing unrelated code to the specific problem I'm addressing. TARGET_NR_read is already consistent with Linux for this case. - Q. Do pread64/pwrite64 need to be changed similarly? A. Experiment suggests not: both linux and linux-user yield -1 for NULL 0-length reads/writes.
