[jira] [Created] (KUDU-2644) Use security hardening flags and other techniques for Kudu components

Alexey Serbin created KUDU-2644:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Use security hardening flags and other techniques for Kudu components
                 Key: KUDU-2644
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2644
             Project: Kudu
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: CLI, client, master, tserver
            Reporter: Alexey Serbin


It would be nice to turn on various security-related hardening flags for the compiler and the linker while building various Kudu components.  The nice overview of available options is at:

Maybe, we could turn on all that for the DEBUG builds, and enable at least some of those that don't hurt performance too much for RELEASE builds after initial evaluation.
