----------------------------------------
[~steven.aerts], can the issue of "consumer of the process not losing it's
subscription" come with RangeAssignor?
> Sticky assignor could assign a partition to multiple consumers (KIP-341)
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-7026
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7026
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: clients
> Reporter: Vahid Hashemian
> Assignee: Vahid Hashemian
> Priority: Major
> Labels: kip
> Fix For: 2.2.0
>
>
> In the following scenario sticky assignor assigns a topic partition to two
> consumers in the group:
> # Create a topic {{test}} with a single partition
> # Start consumer {{c1}} in group {{sticky-group}} ({{c1}} becomes group
> leader and gets {{test-0}})
> # Start consumer {{c2}} in group {{sticky-group}} ({{c1}} holds onto
> {{test-0}}, {{c2}} does not get any partition)
> # Pause {{c1}} (e.g. using Java debugger) ({{c2}} becomes leader and takes
> over {{test-0}}, {{c1}} leaves the group)
> # Resume {{c1}}
> At this point both {{c1}} and {{c2}} will have {{test-0}} assigned to them.
>
> The reason is {{c1}} still has kept its previous assignment ({{test-0}}) from
> the last assignment it received from the leader (itself) and did not get the
> next round of assignments (when {{c2}} became leader) because it was paused.
> Both {{c1}} and {{c2}} enter the rebalance supplying {{test-0}} as their
> existing assignment. The sticky assignor code does not currently check and
> avoid this duplication.
