This is needed so that the raft client can know the epoch of the offset prior to the log start offset. In practice this mean that the topic partition log will have 2 snapshots when log start offset is greater than 0. This can be implemented by changing {{ReplicatedLog::startOffset}} to: {code:java} OffsetAndEpoch startOffsetAndEpoch(); {code} was (Author: jagsancio): Another requirement is that the log start offset must always be zero or equal to the end offset of another snapshot.

This is correct but causes some inefficiency in some > cases. > # Any follower, voters or observers, with an end offset between the leader's > log start offset and the leader's latest snapshot will get invalidated. This > will cause those follower to fetch the new snapshot and reload it's state > machine. > # Any {{Listener}} or state machine that has a {{nextExpectedOffset()}} less > than the latest snapshot will get invalidated. This will cause the state > machine to have to reload its state from the latest snapshot. > To minimize the frequency of these reloads KIP-630 proposes adding the > following configuration: > * {{metadata.start.offset.lag.time.max.ms}} - The maximum amount of time > that leader will wait for an offset to get replicated to all of the live > replicas before advancing the {{LogStartOffset}}. See section “When to > Increase the LogStartOffset”. The default is 7 days. > This description and implementation should be extended to also apply to the > state machine, or {{Listener}}. The local log start offset should be > increased when all of the {{ListenerContext}}'s {{nextExpectedOffset()}} is > greater than the offset of the latest snapshot. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
