IIUC, head is used for both common migration control path and RDMA specific 
control path.

hook_stage(RAM_SAVE_FLAG_HOOK) {
    rdma_hook_process(qemu_rdma_registration_handle) {
       do {
           // this is a RDMA own control block, should not be disturbed by the 
common migration control path.
           // head will be extracted and processed here.
           // qio_channel_rdma_writev() will send RDMA_CONTROL_QEMU_FILE, which 
is an unexpected message for this block.
           // head.repeat will be examined before the type, so an uninitialized 
repeat will confuse us here.
       } while (!RDMA_CONTROL_REGISTER_FINISHED || !error)
    }
}


when qio_channel_rdma_writev() is used for common migration control path, 
repeat is useless and will not be examined.

With this patch, we can quickly know the cause.

i have no idea yet :)
