Currently the jtreg test

jdk/internal/platform/cgroup/TestCgroupMetrics.java

fails on my linux ppc64le test machine (SLES 12.3) . (jdk/jdk hg)
It gives me :

java.lang.RuntimeException: Test failed for - blkio:blkio.throttle.io_service_bytes - Total, expected [25288465162240], got [158457046589440]

The failure happens here, when a metrics value is compared with a value read from file system (oldVal/newVal).
MetricsTester.java :

    public void testBlkIO() {
        Metrics metrics = Metrics.systemMetrics();
            long oldVal = metrics.getBlkIOServiceCount();
        long newVal = getLongValueFromFile(SubSystem.BLKIO,
                "blkio.throttle.io_service_bytes", "Total");
        if (!compareWithErrorMargin(oldVal, newVal)) {
            fail(SubSystem.BLKIO, "blkio.throttle.io_service_bytes - Total",
                    oldVal, newVal);
        }

It seems the wrong values from /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/blkio.throttle.io_service_bytes are compared :

fgrep Total /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/blkio.throttle.io_service_bytes
254:6 Total 25350186577920
   ...
Total 158652998460416

Once the first value is taken , and once the last (where the line ***starts*** with Total).
Short analysis from B.Vandette found that

open/src/java.base/linux/classes/jdk/internal/platform/cgroupv1/SubSystem.java:151
in getLongEntry, seems to do the following :

"Instead of finding the first line that starts with “Total”, it finds the first line that contains “Total”. "
