Applications & ACPI events

When using ACPI to shutdown the machine to disk or memory, obviously an
application can read events from /proc/acpi/events to see what to do.

How does ACPI in the kernel wait for applications to do what they
need to when receiving an ACPI event, as it seems the kernel shuts down
everything pretty quickly ?
