Then you might be interested in the kgdb-over-ipipe patch [1]. Works
fine for x86 on 2.6.16, so far tested with Xenomai, but I guess it
should work for RTAI as well. Don't know if RTAI keeps a valid "current"
pointer (current Linux task_struct) for any context, including kernel
RT-tasks. If not, you would need a similar patch like I posted for Xenomai.

Feasible. I just fired up our #rtnet channel on freenode.net, I'm now
logged in, but I may show some latencies due to real-life interrupts.
