Layout calculation rules (such as those in CSS2.1, Section 10.3) that apply to the horizontal dimension in horizontal writing modes instead apply to the vertical dimension in vertical writing modes.
"
7.1 Principles of Layout in Vertical Writing Modes
http://www.w3.org/TR/css-writing-modes-3/#vertical-layout

So here, *-top and *-bottom properties are input into the §10.3.7 algorithms where *-top properties refer to *-left properties in the layout rules and where *-bottom properties refer to *-right properties in the layout rules.

"
1. 'left' and 'width' are 'auto' and 'right' is not 'auto', then the width is shrink-to-fit. Then solve for 'left'
"

'top' + 'margin-top' + 'border-top-width' + 'padding-top' + 'height' + 'padding-bottom' + 'border-bottom-width' + 'margin-bottom' + 'bottom' = height of containing block

So:

  (solve) : top: auto
  +
      0px : margin-top
  +
      0px : border-top-width
  +
      0px : padding-top
  +
  (based on the content) : height: auto
  +
      0px : padding-bottom
  +
      0px : border-bottom-width
  +
      0px : margin-bottom
  +
    160px : bottom
    =====================
    320px : height of containing block

gives us:

  (solve) : top: auto
  +
      0px : margin-top
  +
      0px : border-top-width
  +
      0px : padding-top
  +
     80px : (based on the content) : height: auto
  +
      0px : padding-bottom
  +
      0px : border-bottom-width
  +
      0px : margin-bottom
  +
    160px : bottom
    =====================
    320px : height of containing block

And so computed top value must be 80px .
