Patch Review
**Verdict: BUG in `__font_glyph_rotate_180` -- incorrect output coordinate for non-byte-aligned widths.**
This patch renames variables and drops `inline`, which is all fine. However, it introduces a bug in the 180-degree rotation.
In the **original** `rotate_ud()`, `width` was overwritten to `(width + 7) & ~7` (the bit pitch), and the output x-coordinate was computed as:
```c
width = (width + 7) & ~7; // width is now bit_pitch
...
pattern_set_bit(width - (1 + j + shift), height - (1 + i), width, out);
```
Algebraically: `output_x = bit_pitch - 1 - j - shift`. Since `bit_pitch = width_orig + shift`, this simplifies to `output_x = width_orig - 1 - j`. The shift cancels out.
In the **new** `__font_glyph_rotate_180()`, the parameter `width` is no longer overwritten, but the formula still includes the shift:
```c
unsigned int bit_pitch = font_glyph_bit_pitch(width);
...
font_glyph_set_bit(out, width - (1 + x + shift), height - (1 + y), bit_pitch);
```
This computes `output_x = width - 1 - x - shift`, which is **wrong** -- it should be `width - 1 - x` (without the shift), or equivalently `bit_pitch - 1 - x - shift` (preserving the original formula with `bit_pitch`).
For any font width that isn't a multiple of 8 (e.g., 6, 7, 10, 12, 14...), the 180-degree rotation will place bits at incorrect positions. For example, with width=10, bit (0,0) maps to output position 3 instead of 9.
The 90-degree and 270-degree rotations are correct in this patch because they consistently use `out_bit_pitch` / `bit_pitch` (the rounded-up values) rather than the original width/height.
**Fix**: Change:
```c
font_glyph_set_bit(out, width - (1 + x + shift), height - (1 + y), bit_pitch);
```
to:
```c
font_glyph_set_bit(out, bit_pitch - (1 + x + shift), height - (1 + y), bit_pitch);
```
This wasn't caught in testing because the author tested with bochs+QEMU, which likely uses the default 8x16 font (width=8, shift=0).
