Alexey Serbin updated KUDU-3457:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
It seems that exceptions thrown from within {{RangerSubprocessMain.main()}} 
isn't propagated to {{SubprocessServer}}.  For example, when ranger-related 
flags are specified, but {{\-\-keytab_file}} and/or {{\-\-principal}} flags are 
missing, {{SubprocessServer::Init()}} still returns {{Status::OK()}}, while the 
following message is printed into the stderr:

{noformat}
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.kudu.subprocess.KuduSubprocessException: 
Kudu principal and Keytab file must be provided when Kerberos is enabled in 
Ranger
        at 
org.apache.kudu.subprocess.ranger.authorization.RangerKuduAuthorizer.init(RangerKuduAuthorizer.java:78)
        at 
org.apache.kudu.subprocess.ranger.RangerProtocolHandler.<init>(RangerProtocolHandler.java:45)
        at 
org.apache.kudu.subprocess.ranger.RangerSubprocessMain.main(RangerSubprocessMain.java:39)
{noformat}

Apparently, {{SubprocessServer::StartSubprocessThread()}} takes care only of 
starting the process, but it doesn't check whether {{SubprocessExecutor}} has 
successfully started {{RangerProtocolHandler}}, so it's able to process at 
least a single message.  In the particular error scenario described above, the 
sub-process exited immediately with non-OK status, but that wasn't detected.

It's necessary to detect early stage errors like that, so 
{{SubprocessServer::Init()}} would return non-OK status in case if 
{{RangerProtocolHandler}} hasn't started or isn't able to process a single 
message right after the start.
