[Bug 1727643] [NEW] libvirt: UnicodeDecodeError in qemu guest agent error message handling

 

Public bug reported:

Description
===========

Some of error messages from qemu-guest-agent is
    localized encoding.
    We may get GB2312(Chinese charactors) from qga's error message
    from a Chinese version of Windows.
    
    nova didn't cover this senario, we may get errors like:
        UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe6
        in position 138: ordinal not in range(128)

Steps to reproduce
==================
1) upload a non-English Windows image, such as Chinese version.
2) don't set os_type metadata of image
3) nova set-password XXXX
4) check log of nova-compute, see 'Logs & Configs'

Expected result
===============
error message from qemu guest agent should be logged properly in nova-compute.log

Actual result
=============
UnicodeDecodeError
