As far as kernel debugging and stepping through kernel code. I have never done that, not on the ARM or PC. However I have written a couple small kernel modules and my style of debugging has just been simple printk()'s.
However debugging a process on the arm linux side I have used the arm gdb debugger. When logged into your board just type gdb "nameofyourexecutable_withdebuginfo" Then you can single step your program. You can then take that a step further and use the gdbserver so you can use a nice GUI tool for stepping through code from your Host PC. Hope that helps.

Josh, it has a procedure to debug DSP code. How can I debug my ARM side kernel code? Has anybody done it successfully? Do we need any specific JTAG for that?
