You don't need to.
PHP executes the code in order. When the code makes a call to a
function, that function will need to complete before the code that
follows the call continues.
<?php
function longRunningFunction() {
// The function will take a while.
}
// Start a loop
do {
// Call the long running function.
longRunningFunction();
// The next line of code cannot run until the longRunningFunction() returns.
} while($someBreakValueTest)
// The code here cannot run until the do/while is complete.
?>
