I want to print the register's own address where it resides in memory using GDB. For example, Where does the GPG register r1 reside in memory? From the result below I can't find the register's own address.

(gdb) info reg r0 r1
r0             0x0  0
r1             0x0  0

even with

(gdb) x/x $r0
0x0 <_ftext>:   0xffffffff
(gdb) x/x $r1
0x0 <_ftext>:   0xffffffff
(gdb)
gdb

Registers don't have addresses, only names. They are locations in the CPU itself, not in RAM.
