---------------------------------------
I changed the version to 4.0.0.
> Investigate propagating subscription state updates via queues
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-16290
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-16290
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: clients, consumer
> Reporter: Lucas Brutschy
> Assignee: Bruno Cadonna
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: consumer-threading-refactor, kip-848,
> kip-848-client-support
> Fix For: 4.0.0
>
>
> We are mostly using the queues for interaction between application thread and
> background thread, but the subscription object is shared between the threads,
> and it is updated directly without going through the queues.
> The way we allow updates to the subscription state from both threads is
> definitely not right, and will bring trouble. Places like the assign() is
> probably the most obvious, where we send an event to the background to
> commit, but then update the subscription in the foreground right away.
> It seems sensible to aim for having all updates to the subscription state in
> the background, triggered from the app thread via events (and I think we
> already have related events for all updates, just that the subscription state
> was left out in the app thread).
