The sunrpc scheduler contains a race condition that can let an RPC task end up being neither running nor on any wait queue. The race takes place between rpc_make_runnable (called from rpc_wake_up_task) and __rpc_execute under the following condition: First __rpc_execute calls tk_action which puts the task on some wait queue. The task is dequeued by another process before __rpc_execute continues its execution. While executing rpc_make_runnable exactly after setting the task `running' bit and before clearing the `queued' bit __rpc_execute picks up execution, clears `running' and subsequently both functions fall through, both under the false assumption somebody else took the job. Swapping rpc_test_and_set_running with rpc_clear_queued in rpc_make_runnable fixes that hole. This introduces another possible race condition that can be handled by checking for `queued' after setting the `running' bit. Bug noticed on a 4-way x86_64 system under XEN with an NFSv4 server on the same physical machine, apparently one of the few ways to hit this race condition at all.
