Hi Aiden,
Thanks for clarifying this issue. Since I have no Unicode locales windows
environment, I can't help to do the verification.
For the following 2# message = stdout.decode(encoding='utf-8',
errors='ignore').encode('utf-8'), after encode(), on python3, the message will
not a string, it's bytes type data.
BTW, would you help check whether "message = stdout.decode(errors='ignore')"
works?
Thanks,
Bob

I forgot to mention one more thing in reproduce steps. This is also
reproducible by just calling 'edksetup.bat forcerebuild' in Windows command
prompt w/o python subprocess.call().
I have tested on 'Chinese - Traditional, Taiwan' and 'Korean' locale Windows
and it's reproducible on both Unicode locales. And below change works around
the issue on both locales.
Some experiment. Not sure if this is python2 bug.
message = "" <= type 'str'
temp = stdout.decode(encoding='utf-8', errors='ignore') <= type 'unicode' which
has unicode string message = temp.encode('utf-8') <= pass message = temp <=
deadlock
