Jim Brennan commented on YARN-7857:
-----------------------------------

I've also verified this with a simple test program that just does the file_copy 
call.

{noformat}
[jbrennan02@imposeenclose test]$ ./copy_file_test-rhel7 /etc/services /tmp/foo
copy /etc/services to /tmp/foo
[jbrennan02@imposeenclose test]$ ./copy_file_test-rhel7-stack-check 
/etc/services /tmp/foo
copy /etc/services to /tmp/foo
[jbrennan02@imposeenclose test]$ ./copy_file_test-rhel6 /etc/services /tmp/foo
copy /etc/services to /tmp/foo
[jbrennan02@imposeenclose test]$ ./copy_file_test-rhel6-stack-check 
/etc/services /tmp/foo
copy /etc/services to /tmp/foo
Segmentation fault

The RHEL 6 versions were compiled on this system:

{noformat}
[jbrennan02@goalssoles test]$ hostname
goalssoles.corp.ne1.yahoo.com
[jbrennan02@goalssoles test]$ cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.8 (Santiago)
[jbrennan02@goalssoles test]$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-18)
{noformat}

The RHEL 7 versions were compiled on this system:
{noformat}
[jbrennan02@imposeenclose test]$ hostname
imposeenclose.corp.ne1.yahoo.com
[jbrennan02@imposeenclose test]$ cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.4 (Maipo)
[jbrennan02@imposeenclose test]$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-16)
{noformat}

Compiled with: gcc [-fstack-check] -o copy_file_test<suffix> copy_file_test.c

I propose that we remove the -fstack-check flag, and possibly replace it with 
-fstack-protector, though that does not provide the same protection.

> The segmentation fault in container-executor reported in [YARN-7796]  appears 
> to be due to a binary compatibility issue with the {{-fstack-check}} flag 
> that was added in [YARN-6721]
> Based on my testing, a container-executor (without the patch from 
> [YARN-7796]) compiled on RHEL 6 with the -fstack-check flag always hits this 
> segmentation fault when run on RHEL 7.  But if you compile without this flag, 
> the container-executor runs on RHEL 7 with no problems.  I also verified this 
> with a simple program that just does the copy_file.
> I think we need to either remove this flag, or find a suitable alternative.
