2021-04-26nogo: enable bazel workers and other optimizations.Adin Scannell
This is a suite of changes intended to dramatically speed up nogo speed. First, there are minor changes that help efficiency significantly. * Gob-based encoding is used internally, and JSON only used for the final set of findings. This is done to preserve the existing format (which is consumed by external tooling), and to facilitate manual debugging. * Unnecessary regex compilation is elided in the configuration, and care is taken for merges to prevent redundant entries. I'm not sure quite sure how, but it turns out that this was consumed a significant amount of time, presumably compiling the same regexes over and over again. Second, this change enables bazel workers for nogo analyzers. Workers enable persistent processes instead of creating and tearing down a sandbox every invocation. A library is introduced to abstraction these details, and allow the tools to still be written using standard flags, etc. The key here is that these binaries and the core of nogo become aware of caches with worker.Cache. This allows us to save significant time loading the same set of files and findings over and over again. These caches are keyed by the digests that are provided by bazel, and are capped in overall size. Note that the worker package attempts to capture output during each run, but tools are no longer permitted to write to stdout. This necessitated dropping some spurious output from checklocks.

2020-10-26Add nogo configuration.Adin Scannell
This splits the nogo rules into a separate configuration yaml file, and allows for multiple files to be provided. Because attrs cannot be passed down to aspects, this required that all findings are propagated up the aspect Provider. This doesn't mean that any extra work must be done, just that this information must be carried through the graph, and some additional starlark complexity is required. PiperOrigin-RevId: 339076357

2020-04-20Add internal nogo analysis & checkescape tool.Adin Scannell
See tools/nogo/README.md. The checkescape tool is able to perform recursive escape analysis, using the actual generated binary to confirm the results produced by the compiler itself. As an initial use case, this replaces the manual escape analysis tests used for go_marshal, and validates that the CopyIn and CopyOut paths will not require any allocation or stack splits.
