September 2025: Implemented a critical FIFO offset handling fix in Apache RocketMQ's PopConsumerService. The change ensures pull offsets are not applied to orderly FIFO consumption and adds a fifo parameter to getPopOffset with routing to the correct offset manager when FIFO mode is active, addressing ISSUE #9695/#9696 and preserving backward compatibility with the previous pull consumer behavior. Result: more reliable FIFO processing and improved overall consumption correctness.
