Suddenly rvictl -s 0000... started to fail. The solutions proposed in this thread didn't help. Please advice. Due to the nature of the APP I worked on it I heavily depend on rvictl to work properly.
MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018) Big Sur 11.6 (20G165) iPhone 12, iOS 15.1
Suddenly
rvictl -s 0000...started to fail.
What are the symptoms of this failure?

rvictl -s 000... returns Starting device 0000... [FAILED] and in the system log I see:
Oct 7 05:56:25 mb-C02XV5DLJGH6 rpmuxd[31644]: com.apple.rpmuxd:rpmuxd_start_kernelctl:234 Child process /sbin/kextload[31646] exited with status 29

and rvictl -l returns Could not get list of devices
As someone else mentioned, could it be because of a faulty upgrade?
BTW, Xcode version is 13.0 (13A233)
Further up in the log I see this:

A quick check of the code signature suggests a problem with the way that the KEXT is built:
% codesign -v -vvv "/Library/Apple/System/Library/Extensions/RemoteVirtualInterface.kext"
/Library/Apple/System/Library/Extensions/RemoteVirtualInterface.kext: resource envelope is obsolete (custom omit rules)
Note If you’re curious what this means, it’s discussed in Technote 2206 macOS Code Signing In Depth.
I’m not sure what’s going on here but it definitely seems bugworthy. Please file a bug and post the number here, just for the record.

the log I posted it doesn't include any of the code signing issues
I suspect you were looking in the legacy system log (the /var/log/system.log file) while I was looking in the actual system log (as shown by the Console app and the log command-line tool).

This was fixed in Xcode 13.0, see https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/655329?answerId=694420022#694420022
Yay!
