One final note. To ensure the symbolic information is present in the kernel components that will be debugged, make sure that these are built using the -g gcc flag. In addition, turning optimization down or off often makes debugging easier. Turning them off can be done by setting the gcc flag -O0. Another handy flag that makes the stack easier to work with is -fno-omit-frame-pointer making function calls save the stack frames and pointers. So for example the modified line for the Makefile in pv-linux-drivers.git looks like:
$ make -C $(KDIR) FROM_DKMS=n NOSTDINC_FLAGS="$(ENOSTDINC_FLAGS)" M=$(CURDIR) modules EXTRA_CFLAGS="-g -O0 -fno-omit-frame-pointer"
