You haven't explained what the problem is.  I'm not sure why you "cant
debug it".  I guess you don't have symbols?

Did you build qemu-kvm from source?  In that case there should be
debug symbols in the x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 binary.  QEMU
only strips the binary during make install, and that can be disabled
by ./configure --disable-strip.

If you are using a distro package, then you might need qemu-kvm-dbg or
similar.  That way gdb can get the symbols.
