I was trying to run ansible playbook to configure some services and it failed to determine service state. Ansible reads ActiveState from systemctl show. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run # systemctl show dhcpcd | grep ActiveState (I've picked dhcpcd since it was running on my system but you can pick any other unit file) Actual Results: Failed to parse bus message: Invalid argument Expected Results: ActiveState=active The fix was to recompile systemd against linux-headers-5.8 (which has cap_bpf) but linux-headers-5.8 is not yet stable.
This was fixed in systemd-246: commit e41de5e491942b5391b1efb71c82ffd329b3d23d Author: Michal Koutný <mkoutny@suse.com> Date: Wed Jun 24 12:43:22 2020 +0200 missing: Add new Linux capabilities Linux kernel v5.8 adds two new capabilities. Make sure we can recongize them even when built with older kernel.
Oh, and it was fixed in v245.7
(In reply to Alexander Tsoy from comment #2) > Oh, and it was fixed in v245.7 Ok, that's good. We can probably get this version in and stabilize then.
