I have debugged the kernels of Windows, Linux and now iOS using internal tools. Windbg generally works, and is far superior to the equivalent tools for other kernels. Like vim it has a baroque syntax and a steep learning curve, but it also has a gui with big buttons to compensate. Yeah, you can get yourself in bad situations, especially in early boot, but I miss it.

I confess that it’s been years since I used WinDbg. It was quite bare bones back then.

These days I mostly use gdb (which is incredibly buggy for such things) attached to QEMU’s gdbserver. It works except when I doesn’t.
