What's the point? If you have a debugger loaded, then surely you can just set a breakpoint anywhere you like using whatever user interface the debugger provides for setting breakpoints. You can actually set any number of software breakpoints you like wherever you like, depending on what you actually want to debug. I fail to see why it would have to be prearranged within the kernel -- do you have a configuration where you run the kernel from ROM by any chance? Maciej
