The problem with that is that the fs operations run in the thread
pool. So, if you perform 4 uv_fs_read operations and the read()
syscall blocks, the entire thread pool is blocked, that means you
cannot run any other operations that require it, like uv_fd_*,
uv_queue_work, uv_getaddrinfo.

You could try to use a tty or pipe handle. Note that if you use
uv_pipe_open you'll need to set the fd to be non-blocking first.
