Thank you for working on this, Abhishek.
I ran tests on the release build on Ubuntu 20.04. I am getting consistent
failure for these two tests:
++++
Java client test:
org.apache.kudu.client.TestSecurity >
testExternallyProvidedSubjectRefreshedExternally FAILED
Caused by:
org.apache.kudu.client.NoLeaderFoundException: Master config (
127.201.19.253:45265,127.201.19.252:39795,127.201.19.254:39589) has no
leader. Exceptions received: org.apache.kudu.client.RecoverableException:

C++ test (minidump-test)
[ FAILED ] MinidumpDeathTest.TestRegisterAndDelete
RC/kudu/src/kudu/util/minidump-test.cc:70: Failure
15 Death test: { abort(); }
16 Result: died but not with expected error.
17 Expected: contains regular expression
"kudu::MinidumpDeathTest_TestRegisterAndDelete_Test::TestBody()"
++++
I will try to run these on a newer version of Ubuntu as 20.04 is anyway EOL.
Regards,
Ashwani
