Summary: KRaft should track HWM outside the log layer Key: KAFKA-16767 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-16767 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: kraft Reporter: José Armando García Sancio The current implementation of KRaft tracks the HWM using the log layer implementation. The log layer has an invariant where the HWM <= LEO. This mean that the log layer always sets the HWM to the minimum of HWM and LEO. This has the side-effect of the local KRaft reporting a HWM that is much smaller than the leader's HWM when the replica start with an empty log. E.g. a new broker or the kafka-metadata-shell. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
