mdb -k is useful for examining the state of a running kernel, but can't be used to set breakpoints or stop threads -- it's just a process executing on the running system.
Your options are to use kmdb either by booting -k (man kmdb) or by running mdb -K to load kmdb (on the console), or to use DTrace which is great for examining the state and flow of control of your device driver.
