dannycranmer opened a new pull request #14034:
URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/14034


   ## What is the purpose of the change
   
   The consumer fails when a Kinesis Polling record publisher uses a timestamp 
sentinel starting position and the first record batch is empty. This is because 
the consumer tries to recalculate the start position from the timestamp 
sentinel, this operation is not supported.
   
   ## Brief change log
   
   This is fixed by reusing the existing timestamp starting position in this 
condition when polling consumer encounters empty batch with timestamp starting 
position.
   
   ## Verifying this change
   
   This change added a unit test and can be verified as follows:
   - Running tests in `ShardConsumerTest`
   
   This has been manually verified on Flink cluster consuming from a Kinesis 
Stream.
