I'm able to register a callback function using signal in libc, see the code
below.
SIGINT=2
function catch_function(x)
println("caught signal $x")
exit(0)::Nothing
end
catch_function_c = cfunction(catch_function, None, (Int64,))
ccall((:signal, "libc"), Void, (Int64, Ptr{Void}), SIGINT, catch_function_c)
while true
sleep(1)
end
