-----------------------------------------------------------------
I think this is the same issue as SPARK-19263 -- can you check to see if that
fixes the problem / have you looked at that JIRA? I wrote a super long
description of the problem towards the end of the associated PR.
One more note is that right now, Spark won't cancel running task attempts
(although there's a JIRA to fix this), even when a stage is marked as failed.
So the exact scenario you described, where the 2nd task attempt gets shut down,
shouldn't occur (the driver will wait for the 2nd task attempt to complete, but
will ignore the result).

> Key: SPARK-19698
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19698
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Mesos, Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Charles Allen
>
> We have encountered a strange scenario in our production environment. Below
> is the best guess we have right now as to what's going on.
> Potentially, the final stage of a job has a failure in one of the tasks (such
> as OOME on the executor) which can cause tasks for that stage to be
> relaunched in a second attempt.
> https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/v2.1.0/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/scheduler/DAGScheduler.scala#L1155
> keeps track of which tasks have been completed, but does NOT keep track of
> which attempt those tasks were completed in. As such, we have encountered a
> scenario where a particular task gets executed twice in different stage
> attempts, and the DAGScheduler does not consider if the second attempt is
> still running. This means if the first task attempt succeeded, the second
> attempt can be cancelled part-way through its run cycle if all other tasks
> (including the prior failed) are completed successfully.
> What this means is that if a task is manipulating some state somewhere (for
> example: a upload-to-temporary-file-location, then delete-then-move on an
> underlying s3n storage implementation) the driver can improperly shutdown the
> running (2nd attempt) task between state manipulations, leaving the
> persistent state in a bad state since the 2nd attempt never got to complete
> its manipulations, and was terminated prematurely at some arbitrary point in
> its state change logic (ex: finished the delete but not the move).
> This is using the mesos coarse grained executor. It is unclear if this
> behavior is limited to the mesos coarse grained executor or not.
