    Question

    How do I make my program not use CPU cycles when it's waiting for a cirtain event to occur (like input from a hardware port)?

    As far as I am concerned, when you program is waiting for an input for example, the process is blocked by the OS until the IO operation is done, you don´t need to worry about it
