    It looks like DDB doesn't handle multiple CPUs.  More precisely, it
    displays the CPU number in its prompt, but I don't see any code to stop
    other CPUs.
 
 look in eg i386/db_interface.c for db_suspend_others() and
 db_resume_others()..
 
 the same method is used on many of our MP platforms.
