Okay, now I had the coredump, and ran GDB ('bt full') with it[1] with
qemu-debuginfo files installed. Not sure if it has inough info, as I
didn't install the ~ 3.6 GB of other missing debuginfo RPMs (this is my
primary laptop, I can replicate this test on a different machine with
the missing debuginfo files if needed).
Next, I tried the external wrapper technique you once wrote about[1], to
run QEMU under `gdbserver`, here's the result:
$ gdb
. . .
(gdb) file /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64

/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64.debug...done.
done.

Does this help?
Precise steps of what I did:
(1) Use the below wrapper script with `gdbserver`
----------------------------------------------------------------
$ cat /export/qemu-wrapper.sh
#!/bin/bash -
if ! echo "$@" | grep -sqE -- '-help|-version|-device \?' ; then
gdbserver="gdbserver :1234"
fi
exec $gdbserver /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 "$@"
----------------------------------------------------------------
(2) On shell #1, export the backing file over QEMU NBD:
$ qemu-nbd -f qcow2 -p10809 \
/var/lib/libvirt/images/f21vm.qcow2 -t
(3) On shell #3, Invoke the QEMU wrapper script:
$ ./qemu-wrapper.sh \
-nographic \
-nodefconfig \
-nodefaults \
-m 2048 \
-device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi \
-device virtio-serial-pci \
-serial stdio \
-drive file=./overlay1-f21vm.qcow2,format=qcow2,if=virtio,cache=writeback
Process /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 created; pid = 1944
Listening on port 1234
(4) On shell #3, run GDB (output is above).
