Eno Thereska commented on KAFKA-5211: ------------------------------------- [~becket_qin] I think this change needs a KIP. There have been several JIRAs like KAFKA-5078, KAFKA-4740 etc that have a lot of discussion on the PR. I personally haven't understood the ramifications of these changes. They affect users since they need to know what to do in case bad data is in the pipeline. Could you prepare a KIP on this? Thanks. > KafkaConsumer should not skip a corrupted record after throwing an exception. > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-5211 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5211 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Jiangjie Qin > Assignee: Jiangjie Qin > Labels: clients, consumer > Fix For: 0.11.0.0 > > > In 0.10.2, when there is a corrupted record, KafkaConsumer.poll() will throw > an exception and block on that corrupted record. In the latest trunk this > behavior has changed to skip the corrupted record (which is the old consumer > behavior). With KIP-98, skipping corrupted messages would be a little > dangerous as the message could be a control message for a transaction. We > should fix the issue to let the KafkaConsumer block on the corrupted messages. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
