But still i got the segfault and core dump - this is my main problem? I

slowness here.
What can we do about the core dump and crash?
Okay, I reproduced it; it seems aio=native is the culprit. You can try
aio=threads as a workaround.
Copying some relevant people (context: aio=native on qemu-kvm-1.1.1
segfaults pretty early during guest install)
The following ought to fix it:

Subject: [PATCH] virtio-mlk: fix use-after-free while handling scsi commands
The scsi passthrough handler falls through after completing a
request into the failure path, resulting in a use after free.
Reprducible by running a guest with aio=native on a block device.
