Why does -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 has no effect in my compilation?

3

I have been adding some "compilation flags" to activate security measures in my binary. And then I check that the measures are implemented using the checksec tool. I have been able to activate all of them except for FORTIFY.

I keep geting

RELRO           STACK CANARY      NX            PIE             RPATH      RUNPATH      Symbols         FORTIFY Fortified       Fortifiable     FILE
Full RELRO      Canary found      NX enabled    PIE enabled     No RPATH   No RUNPATH   260 Symbols     No      0               7            


* FORTIFY_SOURCE support available (libc)    : Yes
* Binary compiled with FORTIFY_SOURCE support: No

 ------ EXECUTABLE-FILE ------- . -------- LIBC --------
 Fortifiable library functions | Checked function names
 -------------------------------------------------------
 fgets                          | __fgets_chk
 memcpy                         | __memcpy_chk
 memset                         | __memset_chk
 recvfrom                       | __recvfrom_chk
 snprintf                       | __snprintf_chk
 strncpy                        | __strncpy_chk
 vsnprintf                      | __vsnprintf_chk

SUMMARY:

* Number of checked functions in libc                : 79
* Total number of library functions in the executable: 179
* Number of Fortifiable functions in the executable : 7
* Number of checked functions in the executable      : 0
* Number of unchecked functions in the executable    : 7

as output from checksec even after compiling with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2

I have to say that I use "CONFIG_PKG_FORTIFY_SOURCE_2=y" added the -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 in the global options section.

For all the other generated binaries the macro has the expected behavior, that is, the other binaries get "fortified".

arm-openwrt-linux-muslgnueabi-gcc -O2 -pipe -fno-caller-saves -fno-plt -fhonour-copts  -DPIC -fpic -fstack-protector-all -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wl,-z,now -Wl,-z,relro  

Does someone have an idea why my binary is not getting fortified?

Thanks in advance.
