Maybe this helps wrapping your had around the start-suspend-resume-return circle:

$fiber = new Fiber(
function($one) {
$two = Fiber::suspend($one);
$three = Fiber::suspend($two);
$four = Fiber::suspend($three);
$five = Fiber::suspend($four);
$six = Fiber::suspend($five);
return $six;
}
);

print $fiber->start(1);
print $fiber->resume(2);
print $fiber->resume(3);
print $fiber->resume(4);
print $fiber->resume(5);
print $fiber->resume(6);
print $fiber->getReturn();

//prints 123456
