Someone who actively uses Gdbstub or Kitrace, or whatever else, would be
welcome to write an addition to the FAQ. In the "How do I" section under
"how do I debug?", with all kinds of tricks.
For instance, one trick that might seem obvious, for code living in
modules, is to compile -> insmod -> test -> rmmod -> fix -> compile -> ...
instead of rebooting. It's just that it's not written down anywhere, and
it's most helpful.
