Description

We are upgrading our brokers to version 2.5.1 (from 2.3.1) by performing a rolling restart of the brokers after installing the new version. After the restarts we notice one of our streams app (client version 2.4.1) fails with OutOfOrderSequenceException:

We see a corresponding error on the broker side:

[2020-10-13 22:52:21,398] ERROR [ReplicaManager broker=137636348] Error processing append operation on partition topic-name-Aggregation-repartition-52  (kafka.server.ReplicaManager)org.apache.kafka.common.errors.OutOfOrderSequenceException: Out of order sequence number for producerId 2819098 at offset 1156041 in partition topic-name-Aggregation-repartition-52: 29 (incoming seq. number), -1 (current end sequence number)

We are able to reproduce this many times and it happens regardless of whether the broker shutdown (at restart) is clean or unclean. However, when we rollback the broker version to 2.3.1 from 2.5.1 and perform similar rolling restarts, we don't see this error on the streams application at all. This is blocking us from upgrading our broker version.
