[Bug 1932523] Re: iotop can raise UnicodeDecodeError because /proc/pid/status can have non-utf-8 data in Name
Thanks, I have forward-ported the patch, added a commit message and pushed the patch upstream: https://repo.or.cz/iotop.git/commit/443737ec620a699286b9b2e44dbcaac53f553812 At some point in the next few weeks I'll make a new release, upload it to Debian and get it synced to Ubuntu. Since the patch is only a workaround, it would be good to have a proper fix; guess the encoding using chardet or similar and coerce the bytes into Unicode. Any help with that is welcome. status fixcommitted ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #737043 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=737043 ** Also affects: iotop (Debian) via https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=737043 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1932523 Title: iotop can raise UnicodeDecodeError because /proc/pid/status can have non-utf-8 data in Name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iotop/+bug/1932523/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Paul, You can write any commit message that you find appropriate, I'm not familiar with common practices in the project and probably my English not so good. You also can made that commit without my attribution: this change is so simple that anyone can made it. I do not want to put progress of fixing bugs to the bureaucracy. But if you wish, you can use the following attributes: name: Yanichkin Alexander email: alexander_ser...@mail.ru -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1932523 Title: iotop can raise UnicodeDecodeError because /proc/pid/status can have non-utf-8 data in Name To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iotop/+bug/1932523/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for your bug report.
I can confirm this bug. Here are the steps to reproduce it:
# lxc launch images:ubuntu/focal iotop-bug1932523
# lxc shell iotop-bug1932523
$ apt update && apt install -y iotop gcc
$ echo -e '#include \nint main(){sleep(1000);return 0;}' | gcc -x c
-o 'Инстанц�' -
$ ./Инстанц�
##
$ iotop

I was able to verify that this bug still happens on impish, using a recent
version of iotop (0.6-24-g733f3f8-1.1).
@Mingun, I think the best course of action for this bug is to contact
upstream and suggest the patch to them first. Woud you be willing to do
that, please?
Thank you.
