scftorture: Count single_rpc offline failures in statistics outputgrafted
scf_torture_stats_print() aggregates each invoker thread's counters
into a local scf_statistics structure before printing, but the
n_single_rpc_ofl field is missing from the aggregation loop. As a
result, the "single_rpc_ofl" value printed in the statistics line is
always zero, even when smp_call_function_single() invocations for the
RPC test have failed due to offline CPUs and been counted by the
invoker threads.
Add the missing accumulation so that the printed value reflects the
actual counts.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +Block and inode Bitmaps +----------------------- + +The data block bitmap tracks the usage of data blocks within the block +group. + +The inode bitmap records which entries in the inode table are in use. + +As with most bitmaps, one bit represents the usage status of one data +block or inode table entry. This implies a block group size of 8 * +number_of_bytes_in_a_logical_block. + +NOTE: If ``BLOCK_UNINIT`` is set for a given block group, various parts +of the kernel and e2fsprogs code pretends that the block bitmap contains +zeros (i.e. all blocks in the group are free). However, it is not +necessarily the case that no blocks are in use -- if ``meta_bg`` is set, +the bitmaps and group descriptor live inside the group. Unfortunately, +ext2fs_test_block_bitmap2() will return '0' for those locations, +which produces confusing debugfs output. |
