> My test is as follows-
> # Start spark-shell with a single executor.
> # Run a {{select count(\*)}} query. The number of executors rises as input size is non-trivial.
> # After the job finishes, the number of  executors falls as most of them become idle.
> # Rerun the same query again, and the request to add executors fails with the above error. In fact, the job itself continues to run with whatever executors it already has, but it never gets more executors unless the shell is closed and restarted. 
> In fact, this error only happens when I configure {{executorIdleTimeout}} very small. For eg, I can reproduce it with the following configs-
> {code}
> spark.dynamicAllocation.executorIdleTimeout     5
> spark.dynamicAllocation.schedulerBacklogTimeout 5
> {code}
> Although I can simply increase {{executorIdleTimeout}} to something like 60 secs to avoid the error, I think this is still a bug to be fixed.
> The root cause seems that {{numExecutorsPending}} accidentally becomes negative if executors are killed too aggressively (i.e. {{executorIdleTimeout}} is too small) because under that circumstance, the new target # of executors can be smaller than the current # of executors. When that happens, {{ExecutorAllocationManager}} ends up trying to add a negative number of executors, which throws an exception.
