This looks wrong to me; I'd be curious to understand how it's hanging
for you.
'1' means 'stop what you're doing', 0 means carry on; carrying on with a
shutdown fd sounds wrong.

If we look at ram.c we have:

        while ((ret = qemu_file_rate_limit(f)) == 0 ||
                !QSIMPLEQ_EMPTY(&rs->src_page_requests)) {
            int pages;
        ....

so if it returns '1', as it does at the moment it should cause it to
exit the ram_save_iterate loop - which is what we want if it's failing.
Thus I think you need to find the actual place it's stuck in this case -
I suspect it's repeatedly calling ram_save_iterate and then exiting it,
but if that's happening perhaps we're missing a qemu_file_get_error
check somewhere.
