There is:
kdb is a debugger that is part of the linux kernel and provides a
means of examining kernel memory and data structures while the system
is operational. Additional commands may be easily added to format and
display essential system data structures given an identifier or
address of the data structure. The current command set allows complete
control of kernel operations including single-stepping a processor,
stopping upon execution of a specific instruction, stopping upon
access (or modification) of a specific virtual memory location,
stopping upon access to a register in the input-output address space,
stack tracebacks for the current active task as well as for all other
tasks (by process id), instruction disassembly, et. al.

But Linus refuses to incorporate it into the "official" code base:
he wants kernel developers to be able to think at a higher level.
There are long threads on this in the kernel-devel list.
