X-Priority: 1 (Highest) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello, I would like to know whether there exists a device-driver debugger on Linux like SoftIce on Windows. From the working of kgdb, I understand that the debugging on the Target machine can happen once the code reaches the gdbstub, which is well past the driver-initialisations. Can some light be shed on the possiblity of such source-level debugging ? - Would be glad to receive help - TIA - Shobhit Mathur
