[SOLVED] How to trigger KDB from kernel code?

Issue

I have a kernel with KDB compiled in. I can trigger it using /proc/sysrq-trigger and all, but I would like to be able to enter KDB explicitly from the kernel code without having to ressort to a kernel panic which will mess my system up. Something like:

if (interesting_condition)
    enter_kdb();

Is there a similar function in the kernel or a better way to trigger KDB from it than doing a page fault?

Solution

KDB_ENTER()
As simple as that.
