Evelyn Bayes commented on KAFKA-8534:
-------------------------------------
Right still getting my head around the test suite.
My guess is my change breaks a lot of test.
There are 6 alone in core:unitTest and these would be expecting a specific
number of log segments to still exist etc.
I'm going to patching all the tests tomorrow.
p.s. can't assign the Jira to myself for some reason
> retention.bytes does not work as documented

> Key: KAFKA-8534
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8534
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: log
> Affects Versions: 0.11.0.3, 1.0.2, 1.1.1, 2.0.1, 2.1.1, 2.2.1
> Reporter: Evelyn Bayes
> Priority: Major

> A log segment isn't deleted when a partition reaches retention.bytes.
> Instead a log segment is deleted when a partition reaches retention.bytes +
> segment.bytes
> This conflicts with the defenition of retention.bytes:
> *_This configuration controls the maximum size a partition (which consists of
> log segments) can grow to before we will discard old log segments to free up
> space if we are using the "delete" retention policy. By default there is no
> size limit only a time limit. Since this limit is enforced at the partition
> level, multiply it by the number of partitions to compute the topic retention
> in bytes._*
