             Summary: Aborting transaction with pending data should throw 
non-fatal exception
                 Key: KAFKA-10186
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10186
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: producer 
            Reporter: Sophie Blee-Goldman


Currently if you try to abort a transaction with any pending (non-flushed) 
data, the send exception is set to
{code:java}
 KafkaException("Failing batch since transaction was aborted"){code}
This exception type is generally considered fatal, but this is a valid state to 
be in -- the point of throwing the exception is to alert that the records will 
not be sent, not that you are in an unrecoverable error state.

We should throw a different (possibly new) type of exception here to 
distinguish from fatal and recoverable errors.
