Hi Jonathan,

No, POSIX doesn't specify interfaces for attaching to interrupts.  In
general dealing with
interrupts is very OS specific.  At best you can write wrapper
routines/macros.

no Posix function exists for attaching interrupts? I would like to avoid the
use of proprietary API calls in my code to the extent possible.

There's usually a note in the library reference entry giving the equivalent
POSIX functions and saying you should use those (where they exist) and
the "See Also:" section would have the POSIX API's listed as well.
