Yes, of course:

% gdb -k kernel.debug
GNU gdb 4.18
[...]
(kgdb) list *(dsioctl+0x42)
0xc01b5216 is in dsioctl (/usr/src/sys/kern/subr_diskslice.c:357).
352		struct partition *pp;
353	
354		slice = dkslice(dev);
355		ssp = *sspp;
356		sp = &ssp->dss_slices[slice];
357		lp = sp->ds_label;
358		switch (cmd) {
359	
360		case DIOCGDVIRGIN:
361			lp = (struct disklabel *)data;
(kgdb)
