--------------------------------

             Summary: Consumer use offsetsForTimes() get offset return None.
                 Key: KAFKA-6662
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6662
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: core
    Affects Versions: 0.10.2.0
            Reporter: Matt Wang


When we use Consumer's method  offsetsForTimes()  to get the topic-partition offset, sometimes it will return null. Print the client log

[2018-03-15 11:54:05,315] DEBUG Handling ListOffsetResponse response for org.matt_test2-0. Fetched offset -1, timestamp -1 (org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.internals.Fetcher){code}
From the log, we find broker return the offset, but it's value is -1, this value will be removed in Fetcher.handleListOffsetResponse(),
{code:java}
// // Handle v1 and later response
log.debug("Handling ListOffsetResponse response for {}. Fetched offset {}, timestamp {}",
        topicPartition, partitionData.offset, partitionData.timestamp);
if (partitionData.offset != ListOffsetResponse.UNKNOWN_OFFSET) {
    OffsetData offsetData = new OffsetData(partitionData.offset, partitionData.timestamp);
    timestampOffsetMap.put(topicPartition, offsetData);
}{code}
We test several situations, and we found that in the following two cases it will return none.
 # The topic-partition msg number is 0, when we use offsetsForTimes() to get the offset, the offset will retuan -1;
 #  The targetTime we use to find offset is larger than the partition active_segment's largestTimestamp, the offset will return -1;

If the offset is set -1, it will not be return to consumer client. I think in these situation, it should be return the latest offset, and it's also defined in kafka/core annotation.
{code:java}
// /**
 * Search the message offset based on timestamp.
 * This method returns an option of TimestampOffset. The offset is the offset of the first message whose timestamp is
 * greater than or equals to the target timestamp.
 *
 * If all the message in the segment have smaller timestamps, the returned offset will be last offset + 1 and the
 * timestamp will be max timestamp in the segment.
 *
 * If all the messages in the segment have larger timestamps, or no message in the segment has a timestamp,
 * the returned the offset will be the base offset of the segment and the timestamp will be Message.NoTimestamp.
 *
 * This methods only returns None when the log is not empty but we did not see any messages when scanning the log
 * from the indexed position. This could happen if the log is truncated after we get the indexed position but
 * before we scan the log from there. In this case we simply return None and the caller will need to check on
 * the truncated log and maybe retry or even do the search on another log segment.
 *
 * @param timestamp The timestamp to search for.
 * @return the timestamp and offset of the first message whose timestamp is larger than or equals to the
 *         target timestamp. None will be returned if there is no such message.
