OK, I've spent some more time trying to understand this part of syncprov.c. From what I understand :

• the assert failure in ldap_pvt_runqueue_resched is caused by the fact

syncprov_qstart is trying to "reschedule" a task that is no longer in the task_list

• the only time the task is removed from the task_list (via

ldap_pvt_runqueue_remove) is when the task is being run, in syncprov_qtask, if syncprov_qplay returns !=0

• the next time syncprov_qstart is called, it finds "so->s_qtask" is not

NULL, and tries to reschedule the task, but it's no longer in the task_list.

I've written a patch that sets "so->s_qtask" to NULL in syncprov_qtask, just after removing the task from the task_list. So that when syncprov_qstart is called again, it goes into ldap_pvt_runqueue_insert... The patch is attached.

Unfortunately, I can't confirm it fixes the bug since I can't reproduce it... For those who understand the logic behind this, does this make any sense? :)

Ah, you want rev 1.249 of syncprov.c. Closing this as a dup of ITS#5776.

Of course, all of this code has been removed from RE24 as of 1.265.
