INT 03h (3) Breakpoint
INT 3 is the breakpoint interrupt.
Debuggers use this interrupt to establish breakpoints in a program
that is being debugged. This is normally done by substituting an INT
3 instruction, which is one byte long, for a byte in the actual
program. The original byte from the program is restored by the
debugger after it receives control through INT 3.
