Ross,
I can't speak about efficiency - I dont know enogh about embedded programming,
but I've had better results using wait_event. I've tried both msleep() and
yield() in a loop, and just calling wait_event with a function that always
returns 0 seems to work the best for me. But if any experts want to share any
more conclusive information, I'd be interested, too 8?)
Regards,
ROSCO
