Having gone through the PEP again, I am still no closer to understanding what happens here:

data = await reader.read(8192) What does the flow of control look like at the interpreter level?

Are you sure you really want to know? For the sake of sanity, I recommend ignoring the actual control flow and pretending that it's just like

data = reader.read(8192)

with the reader.read() method somehow able to be magically suspended.
