I mean, if there isn't enough entropy yet to seed the kernel's PRNG (because say, you just resumed a VM image, and all entropy pools are invalidated), and you didn't specify that it's allowed to fail becuase you didn't specify non block, what is it supposed to do other than block and allow signals and thus potentially fail with EINTR?
