That's due to to a wrong usage of XML tags in ALC298 - Layout 15 for Dell Precision 5540: culprit

This can be fixed by using int tag rather than real. See issue #2070

As posted in a comment there:

Seems that duplicating an entry in the PinConfig's info.plist with Xcode causes the change from integer to real

clang-12: error: unknown argument: '-ivfsstatcache'
clang-12: error: cannot specify -o when generating multiple output files

This can be related.

Just wondering... before merging these layout-ids which will certainly cause issues when using real XML key, shouldn't be it better to run an action to check the integrity of the XML like files (Info.plist in this specific case)?

Something like:

name: Check XML Files for 'real' key

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  check-xml:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Install xmllint
        run: sudo apt-get install libxml2-utils

      - name: Find 'real' Key in XML Files
        run: |
          find . -name "*.xml" -type f -exec xmllint --xpath '//real' {} \; | grep -q real && echo "::error::Found 'real' key. Consider using 'int' instead." || echo "No 'real' key found."

Primary reason is macOS 14 upgrade on GH side: actions/runner-images#9255.
I tried to temporarily revert to macOS 12, but that will not work soon:

[vandroiy2013]

For now this problem is partially solved but we need stable solution for macOS 14 runners in future.
All kexts from 2024.05 release planning builds correctly and we ready to release.
