I just upgraded to 4.14.7 and tried to reproduce this error, this time under strace. As you can see this happens when systemctl tries to read a specific entry under /sys/fs . In case this matters, the entry is for a small virtual machine running under qemu/kvm and managed by libvirt.

open("/sys/fs/cgroup/unified/machine.slice", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 5
fstat(5, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=0, ...}) = 0

Hi,

Can you reproduce this without using (loading) the XFS modules?
They cause the kernel to be tainted.

I think you mean ZFS - I cannot do that. It is my root filesystem.
