> Fix debug consumer read from follower for older protocol versions
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-9938
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9938
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.5.0, 2.4.1
> Reporter: Jason Gustafson
> Assignee: Jason Gustafson
> Priority: Major
>
> In fetch requests, a sentinel of -2 for the replicaId is treated as a "debug
> consumer" and is allowed to fetch from followers. In KIP-392, we added the
> general ability to read from followers, but we require a newer version of the
> protocol. In the process of this change, we lost the ability for older
> version of the fetch protocol to use the "debug consumer" to read from
> followers. As far as I know the only place this capability is used is in the
> ReplicaVerificationTool. We don't expose this capability from the consumer.
> However, it is still technically a regression and should be fixed.
