The example
% ------------------------------
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xfrac}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\sisetup{
fraction-function = \sfrac,
per-mode = fraction,
}
\begin{document}
\SI{3}{\m\per\s}
\end{document}
% ------------------------------
gives me
,----
| ! Missing number, treated as zero.
| <to be read again>
| \relax
| l.9 \SI{3}{\m\per\s}
|
| ! Illegal unit of measure (pt inserted).
| <to be read again>
| \relax
| l.9 \SI{3}{\m\per\s}
`----
I think (but can't tell for sure) this has been introduced by today's L3
update.

The error goes away if you add the 'calc' package.

This was given in the last update of LaTeX3

Snapshot of SVN 3285
--------------------
- Drop loading of calc package by expl3. This was included for
historical reasons, and users requiring calc should now load
it explicitly.

calc is loaded. There will be a fix to CTAN shortly!
