After a fedora fresh installation with fedora 31 on architecture ppc64le, we can see a systemd-udev-trigger.service failled with "Failed to start udev Coldplug all Devices.1133C" This always reproducible. I can say that problem was not present on 2019/07/17 but was there on 2019/08/02. ● systemd-udev-trigger.service - udev Coldplug all Devices Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-udev-trigger.service; static; vendor preset: disabled) Drop-In: /usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-udev-trigger.service.d └─systemd-udev-trigger-no-reload.conf Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Wed 2019-08-28 10:56:25 BST; 39s ago Docs: man:udev(7) man:systemd-udevd.service(8) Process: 562 ExecStart=/usr/bin/udevadm trigger --type=subsystems --action=add (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 575 ExecStart=/usr/bin/udevadm trigger --type=devices --action=add (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 575 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) CPU: 148ms Aug 28 10:56:25 localhost.localdomain udevadm[575]: Failed to write 'add' to '/sys/devices/vio/uevent': No such device in messages log: Aug 28 10:56:23 localhost systemd[1]: Starting udev Coldplug all Devices...

switching to systemd as udev is part of it
This should be fixed by https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/13656.
That patch was part of the latest update that will go stable when F31 final freeze ends.
