> We have seen recently multiple consumer groups stuck in `CompletingRebalance`. It appears that those group never receives the assignment from the leader of the group and remains stuck in this state forever.
> When a group transitions to the `CompletingRebalance` state, the group coordinator sets up `DelayedHeartbeat` for each member of the group. It does so to ensure that the member sends a sync request within the session timeout. If it does not, the group coordinator rebalances the group. Note that here, `DelayedHeartbeat` is used here for this purpose. `DelayedHeartbeat` are also completed when member heartbeats.
> The issue is that https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/8834 has changed the heartbeat logic to allow members to heartbeat while the group is in the `CompletingRebalance` state. This was not allowed before. Now, if a member starts to heartbeat while the group is in the `CompletingRebalance`, the heartbeat request will basically complete the pending `DelayedHeartbeat` that was setup previously for catching not receiving the sync request. Therefore, if the sync request never comes, the group coordinator does not notice anymore.
> We need to bring that behavior back somehow.
