Documents at the IBM developerWorks site for Cell can be found here: Cell @developerWorks

You sound like you'd want the Programmer's Guide, which goes through debugging Cell applications.

Edit to add sample topics:

  • Chapter 3. Debugging Cell BE applications
    • ...
    • Debugging PPE code
    • Debugging SPE code
    • ...
    • Debugging in the Cell BE environment
    • Debugging multithreaded code
    • Debugging architecture
    • Switching architectures within a single thread
    • ...
    • Using the combined debugger
