+<h3 class="section">4.5 Integers</h3>
+
+<ul>
+<li> <cite>Any extended integer types that exist in the implementation (C99
+and C11 6.2.5).</cite>
+
+<p>GCC does not support any extended integer types.
+</p>
+</li><li> <cite>Whether signed integer types are represented using sign and magnitude,
+two&rsquo;s complement, or one&rsquo;s complement, and whether the extraordinary value
+is a trap representation or an ordinary value (C99 and C11 6.2.6.2).</cite>
+
+<p>GCC supports only two&rsquo;s complement integer types, and all bit patterns
+are ordinary values.
+</p>
+</li><li> <cite>The rank of any extended integer type relative to another extended
+integer type with the same precision (C99 and C11 6.3.1.1).</cite>
+
+<p>GCC does not support any extended integer types.
+</p>
+</li><li> <cite>The result of, or the signal raised by, converting an integer to a
+signed integer type when the value cannot be represented in an object of
+that type (C90 6.2.1.2, C99 and C11 6.3.1.3).</cite>
+
+<p>For conversion to a type of width <em>N</em>, the value is reduced
+modulo <em>2^N</em> to be within range of the type; no signal is raised.
+</p>
+</li><li> <cite>The results of some bitwise operations on signed integers (C90
+6.3, C99 and C11 6.5).</cite>
+
+<p>Bitwise operators act on the representation of the value including
+both the sign and value bits, where the sign bit is considered
+immediately above the highest-value value bit. Signed &lsquo;<samp>&gt;&gt;</samp>&rsquo; acts
+on negative numbers by sign extension.
+</p>
+<p>As an extension to the C language, GCC does not use the latitude given in
+C99 and C11 only to treat certain aspects of signed &lsquo;<samp>&lt;&lt;</samp>&rsquo; as undefined.
+However, <samp>-fsanitize=shift</samp> (and <samp>-fsanitize=undefined</samp>) will
+diagnose such cases. They are also diagnosed where constant
+expressions are required.
+</p>
+</li><li> <cite>The sign of the remainder on integer division (C90 6.3.5).</cite>
+
+<p>GCC always follows the C99 and C11 requirement that the result of division is
+truncated towards zero.
+</p>
+</li></ul>
