Kafka ListOffsets Request Wire Format v3 — Binary Protocol Layout

What is ListOffsets?

Resolves earliest, latest, or timestamp-based offsets, and powers the lag computation in kafka-consumer-groups.sh. Timestamp-based lookups map to the largest offset whose timestamp is <= the given value, which is how you rewind to a point in time after an incident.
