This fixes the root cause of message loss: offset resets to auto.offset.reset.
ROOT CAUSE:
When OffsetFetch is called during rebalancing:
1. Offset not found in memory → returns -1
2. Consumer gets -1 → triggers auto.offset.reset=earliest
3. Consumer restarts from offset 0
4. Previously consumed messages 39-786 are never fetched again
ANALYSIS:
Test shows missing messages are contiguous ranges:
- loadtest-topic-2[0]: Missing offsets 39-786 (748 messages)
- loadtest-topic-0[1]: Missing 675 messages from offset ~117
- Pattern: Initial messages 0-38 consumed, then restart, then 39+ never fetched
FIX:
When OffsetFetch finds offset in SMQ storage:
1. Return the offset to client
2. IMMEDIATELY cache in in-memory map via h.commitOffset()
3. Next fetch will find it in memory (no reset)
4. Consumer continues from correct offset
This prevents the offset reset loop that causes the 21% message loss.
Revert "fix: Load persisted offsets into memory cache immediately on fetch"
This reverts commit d9809eabb9.
fix: Increase fetch timeout and add logging for timeout failures
ROOT CAUSE:
Consumer fetches messages 0-30 successfully, then ALL subsequent fetches
fail silently. Partition reader stops responding after ~3-4 batches.
ANALYSIS:
The fetch request timeout is set to client's MaxWaitTime (100ms-500ms).
When GetStoredRecords takes longer than this (disk I/O, broker latency),
context times out. The multi-batch fetcher returns error/empty, fallback
single-batch also times out, and function returns empty bytes silently.
Consumer never retries - it just gets empty response and gives up.
Result: Messages from offset 31+ are never fetched (3,956 missing = 32%).
FIX:
1. Increase internal timeout to 1.5x client timeout (min 5 seconds)
This allows batch fetchers to complete even if slightly delayed
2. Add comprehensive logging at WARNING level for timeout failures
So we can diagnose these issues in the field
3. Better error messages with duration info
Helps distinguish between timeout vs no-data situations
This ensures the fetch path doesn't silently fail just because a batch
took slightly longer than expected to fetch from disk.
fix: Use fresh context for fallback fetch to avoid cascading timeouts
PROBLEM IDENTIFIED:
After previous fix, missing messages reduced 32%→16% BUT duplicates
increased 18.5%→56.6%. Root cause: When multi-batch fetch times out,
the fallback single-batch ALSO uses the expired context.
Result:
1. Multi-batch fetch times out (context expired)
2. Fallback single-batch uses SAME expired context → also times out
3. Both return empty bytes
4. Consumer gets empty response, offset resets to memory cache
5. Consumer re-fetches from earlier offset
6. DUPLICATES result from re-fetching old messages
FIX:
Use ORIGINAL context for fallback fetch, not the timed-out fetchCtx.
This gives the fallback a fresh chance to fetch data even if multi-batch
timed out.
IMPROVEMENTS:
1. Fallback now uses fresh context (not expired from multi-batch)
2. Add WARNING logs for ALL multi-batch failures (not just errors)
3. Distinguish between 'failed' (timed out) and 'no data available'
4. Log total duration for diagnostics
Expected Result:
- Duplicates should decrease significantly (56.6% → 5-10%)
- Missing messages should stay low (~16%) or improve further
- Warnings in logs will show which fetches are timing out
