How can I find the integral of a linear map of a vector?

Much of the literature on matrix calculus deals with derivatives.
Let $x in mathbbR^n$, and $A in mathbbR^n times n$. It is known, for example, that:
$$f(x) = Ax implies nabla_x f(x) = A tag1$$
$$f(x) = x^TAx implies nabla_x f(x) = (A + A^T)x tag2$$
How do I do the opposite? In particular, if I have $f(x) = Ax$, how can I know the antiderivative?
If $A$ were symmetric, I could perhaps find a matrix $P$ such that $A = P + P^T$, which would let me use the statement $(2)$ to claim that $int dx^T Ax = x^TPx$.
What could be said about the integral for a generally asymmetric matrix A?
