OK, after the recent systemd upgrade I can reproduce the issue. Will check ASAP.

Please install strace, then replace ExecStart=/usr/bin/uksmd with ExecStart=strace -ff /usr/bin/uksmd and check what syscall it fails on.

downgrading to r6 and r7 and removing overrides and reboot - not helps, same status

whoami commented on 2021-10-16 10:42 (UTC)

I didn't do anything special.

@whoami,

what happens if you add pmadv_ksm to the SystemCallFilter= list?

I'm surprised I do not encounter this issue on my machines. Have you made any specific changes in the uksmd.service or system-wide systemd configuration?

after latest update can't start daemon, reboot not helps. I've using your binary repo on OBS
