Are you asking for their documentation? They are described on the
CC Mode manual:

Probably nobody cared about fixing the Emacs sources? Although this is
strange, because there are kernel developers with commit access to
Emacs.

Just discuss it with Alan Mackenzie, the maintainer of CC Mode. He is in
the emacs-devel mailing list.

C styles are buffer local. If you set the correct style in your c-mode
hook, you should be ok.
