>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8400
>             Project: Kafka
>          Issue Type: Improvement

>            Priority: Major
>
> In {{ReplicaManager.fetchMessages}}, we have the following logic to read from 
> the log and update follower state:
> {code}
>     val result = readFromLocalLog(
>         replicaId = replicaId,
>         fetchOnlyFromLeader = fetchOnlyFromLeader,
>         fetchIsolation = fetchIsolation,
>         fetchMaxBytes = fetchMaxBytes,
>         hardMaxBytesLimit = hardMaxBytesLimit,
>         readPartitionInfo = fetchInfos,
>         quota = quota)
>       if (isFromFollower) updateFollowerLogReadResults(replicaId, result)
>       else result
> {code}
> The call to {{readFromLocalLog}} could fail for many reasons, in which case 
> we return a LogReadResult with an error set and all fields set to -1. The 
> problem is that we do not check for the error when updating the follower 
> state. As far as I can tell, this does not cause any correctness issues, but 
> we're just asking for trouble. It would be better to check the error before 
> proceeding to `Partition.updateReplicaLogReadResult`. 
> Perhaps even better would be to have {{readFromLocalLog}} return something 
> like {{Either[LogReadResult, Errors]}} so that we are forced to handle the 
> error.
