Starting with 9e4438f ("stat: don't trust per_unit_log() if log is NULL") fio no longer provides basic bw information (e.g. min, max, p_agg, mean, stdev) when write_bw_log is not used. Thus you have to write a bw_log to obtain these values. (But in this case you can compute those values yourself.) I think this doesn't make sense. Not writing entire bw log shouldn't prevent general sampling and calculation of bw stats. This patch reactivates sampling for bw and iops to be able to calculate basic stats for both independend of writing of entire {bw,iops}_logs. Also check for log that is really of interest in __add_samples() it doesn't make sense to check for bw_log if iops information needs to be written.

Was it in per_unit_log(td->bw_log) or somewhere in add_bw_samples or add_iops_samples? Maybe the original code version (just using !per_unit_log(td->bw_log)) was fine and the sigbus happened due to the bug in __add_samples (checking for the wrong log file)?
