Use printk or a hardware debugger. Software kernel debuggers almost
never work and they're always buggy. The guys who did KGDB for MIPS
did a great job, but it looks like it's hard to keep that code up
to date and working with kernel changes and newer versions of gdb.
At least that's been my experience. In-kernel debuggers is like
saying "Physician heal thyself." or asking yourself to be objective.
