Summary:
Recently TB metrics from several jobs look abnormal, for example (fire-zezhen-f688812290):
{F1974863187}

Suspect the root cause to be D68006780, which remvoes the _scalar_logger_steps buffer from ScalarLogger. When the job is preempted, the step counter is gone. The value is then initialized to 1 once the job restarts, causing metric data points to be placed from the beginning (instead of continuation). Note that this problem did not occur for jobs without preemption (fire-ziqiwang-20250115-1750-6121753b):
{F1974863322}

Looks like we used buffer to store _scalar_logger_steps for a reason. This Diff reverts the change.

Summary:
Recently TB metrics from several jobs look abnormal, for example (*fire-zezhen-f688812290*):
{F1974863187}

Suspect the root cause to be D68006780, which remvoes the `_scalar_logger_steps` buffer from `ScalarLogger`. When the job is preempted, the step counter is gone. The value is then initialized to `1` once the job restarts, causing metric data points to be placed from the beginning (instead of continuation). Note that this problem did not occur for jobs without preemption (*fire-ziqiwang-20250115-1750-6121753b*):
