This is a follow-up to @fabio-zadrozny answer.

Here is a mixin I've created that my class (which gets callbacks from a C-thread) inherits from.

    """The callbacks in the FUSE Filesystem are C threads and breakpoints don't work normally.
       This mixin adds callbacks to every function call so that we can breakpoint them."""

    def __call__(self, op, path, *args):
        pydevd.settrace(suspend=False, trace_only_current_thread=True, patch_multiprocessing=True)
        return getattr(self, op)(path, *args)
