Description of problem: sos package have regex bugs in sos/plugins/openstack_*.py Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sos-3.2-16.el7ost.3.noarch How reproducible: mkdir -p /tmp/tmpest/tempest/sosreport_pre sosreport -p system,virt,openstack,network,kernel,services,storage,security --batch --tmp-dir /tmp/tmpest/tempest/sosreport_pre Below errors will be got: [plugin:openstack_swift] regex substitution failed for '/etc/swift/container.builder' with: ''utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x80 in position 0: invalid start byte' [plugin:openstack_swift] regex substitution failed for '/etc/swift/container.ring.gz' with: ''utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x8b in position 1: invalid start byte' The root cause is In /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sos/plugins/openstack_swift.py In below line: self.do_path_regex_sub("/etc/swift/*.conf*", regexp, r"\1*********") "/etc/swift/*.conf*" is invalid, and should be "/etc/swift/.*\.conf.*". The old regex will match file like /etc/swift/container.builder, which should not be matched. And in /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sos/plugins/openstack_*.py there are many "/etc/<project>/*", like in openstack_nova.py, self.do_path_regex_sub("/etc/nova/*", regexp, r"\1*********") In fact here it should be "/etc/nova/.*"

checked: this is reproducible with sos-3.2-16.el7ost.3.noarch assigning back for further actions.
