I am suggested that almost any blocking syscall could return EINTR, so I
checked the strace log and it does not show evidence of arriving a signal,
the log ends like this:
1152244 openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/kvm", O_RDWR|O_CLOEXEC) = 9
1152244 ioctl(9, KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION, KVM_CAP_ARM_VM_IPA_SIZE) = 48
1152244 ioctl(9, KVM_CREATE_VM, 0x30) = -1 EINTR (Interrupted system call)
1152244 close(9) = 0
1152244 newfstatat(2, "", {st_dev=makedev(0, 0xd), st_ino=57869925,
