What is the state of the processor, when a process is
waiting for some event to occur?

Answer Posted / kum

The answer 6 seems to be closer. It all depends on whether
the system is multitasking or not.

If it is multitasking: The process that is waiting for an
event to occur and in user mode, there are other processes
waiting to be scheduled then possibly one of the processes
will be eventually scheduled by preempting the current process.

If it is multitasking and the process is waiting for an
event to occur and in kernel mode?????

If it is not multitasking: Very trivial case needs no
elaboration.
