https://hyperdbg.org and m1n1 (Apple Silicon) spring to mind as modern supervisor/hypervisor debuggers.

There's nothing modern I'm aware of that lets you press a key combination to get into a hypervisor debug UI like softICE was known for, though. It's all shifted to host-and-target debugging. You'd use a "normal" debugger on one machine (lldb/gdb, WinDbg, IDA, etc.) and either supervised host-to-target connection (network-to-kernel/hypervisor on x86, OCD like JTAG/SWD/CoreSight on embedded) or emulation (for pretty much everything but device driver development).

Project mention: Mirage – A programming framework for building type-safe, modular systems | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-23

What you already can do is attaching gdb -- either live or at a core dump. Please see https://github.com/Solo5/solo5/blob/master/docs/debugging.md for detailed instructions ;)

What you as well can do is record-replay -- well, at least there used to be this option, I'm now lost whether it has never been merged anywhere, or it is stuck in some PR somewhere. This was truly great - since the external interface is so thin, it is easily doable to dump all external events (API calls and returns) onto disk and replay one-by-one, inspecting the state.
