Hello,

I am running aarch64-linux-user from master, commit 20d6c7312f1b812bb9c750f4087f69ac8485cc90

And I've found the following inconsistent emulation of pwrite() call when buf==NULL and len=0.
Minimal reproducible sample is the following:

#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <string.h>

/*
 System | Result
-------------------------+----------------
 Native x86_64 4.12.14 | pwrite ret = 0
 Native aarch64 4.4.159 | pwrite ret = 0
 qemu-aarch64 at x86_64 | pwrite ret = -1
   ( 20d6c7312f1b8 ) |
*/

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
 int fd = open("test.dat", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0644);
 if (fd < 0) {
  perror("open");
  return 1;
 }

 int ret = fallocate(fd, 0, 0, 1000);
 if (ret < 0) {
  perror("fallocate");
  return 1;
 }

 ssize_t ret_pwrite = pwrite(fd, NULL, 0, 0);
 printf("pwrite ret = %ld\n", ret_pwrite);

 close(fd);

 return 0;
}
