The 'return' here means you are returning with the wrong signal mask.

Yes, but the signal is eaten by the thread, and can't be delivered to
main thread when returing to usespace. So in order to ensure the main
thread receive the signal SIGINT we should mask this signal on Aps going
into halt, and only main thread can receive such signals.

Then you should block SIGINT in the vcpu thread in userspace.

This patch is correct, except that it leaks the signal mask. You need to restore it when you return -EAGAIN.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
