> The following code in TaskRunner can get NPE in the scenario described below.
> {code}
> UserGroupInformation ugi =
> tracker.getRunningJob(t.getJobID()).getUGI();
> {code}
> The scenario:
> Tracker got a LaunchTaskAction; Task is localized and TaskRunner is started.
> Then Tracker got a KillJobAction; This would issue a kill for the task. But,
> kill will be a no-op because the task did not actually start; The job is
> removed from runningJobs.
> Then if TaskRunner calls tracker.getRunningJob(t.getJobID()), it will be null.
> Instead of TaskRunner doing a back call to tasktracker to get the ugi,
> tracker.getRunningJob(t.getJobID()).getUGI(), ugi should be passed a
> parameter in the constructor of TaskRunner.
