Neha Narkhede commented on KAFKA-2390:
--------------------------------------
seek() is meant to update internal fetch position that the consumer uses on the
next poll(). It updates an in-memory offest value on the consumer and does not
involve a roundtrip to the server. So a callback here doesn't make much sense.
[~lindong] [~becket_qin] Can you guys explain the purpose of these API changes?

> Currently seek is an async call. To have the same interface as other calls
> like commit(), seek() should take a callback. This callback will be invoked
> if the position to seek triggers OFFSET_OUT_OF_RANGE exception from broker.
