Your kernel is old and notably lacks the following fix:

| commit 20223f0f39ea9d31ece08f04ac79f8c4e8d98246
| Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
| Date:   Fri Jun 16 11:08:24 2017 +0200
|
|     fs: pass on flags in compat_writev
|    
|     Fixes: 793b80ef14af ("vfs: pass a flags argument to vfs_readv/vfs_writev")
|     Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
|     Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
|     Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This fix has been backported in various stable trees. For example, the
stable kernel from stretch does not have the bug (since 4.9.34).

As this is not a glibc bug, I am closing it.
