Hi Chan,
write is a system call.
$ man 2 write
syscall table for x86 architecture can be found in :
<path>/arch/x86/syscalls/syscall_32.tbl
# cat <path>/arch/x86/syscalls/syscall_32.tbl | grep 'write'
4 i386 write sys_write
The format is:
<number> <abi> <name> <entry point> <compat entry point>
search sys_write definition in kernel source.
Thanks
