internal/checker
- don't display "[name.category]" in diagnostic
output. Most users don't care which analyzer reported the message.
The -json output retains this information.
- print better log messages for analyze -debug=f.
- print (non-JSON) text output to standard error, like a compiler would.
passes/pkgfact
- fix a nil deref panic when encountering non-renaming imports.
- require names to have underscores before and after (_x_)
as this avoids a huge number of spurious matches in (e.g.) the
syscall package.
- don't export empty facts.

Package checker is a driver for the analysis API.
It is an internal package, but is exposed by three different APIs:
analysistest, singlechecker, and multichecker.
Checker uses go/packages to load the specified packages (plus their
dependencies, if any analysis uses facts) from source code.
It constructs a graph of actions (analysis passes), whose dependency
edges may be "horizontal", when one analyzer depends on the output of
another applied to the same package, or "vertical", when an an
analyzer consumes facts produced by the same analyzer applied to a
dependency package.
The graph is executed in parallel, unless -debug=p.
Facts are passed from one pass to another in memory.
If -debug=s, facts are serialized, to exercise that logic.
Findings are printed at the end.
The -json flag selects JSON output.
Use -debug=t to print timing information.
Always use -debug=tp, for sequential mode, when timing.
Also:
- analysistest: a wrapper for testing checkers
- multichecker: a wrapper for writing multi-checker tools
Analysis flags are prefixed by name: -findcall.name=foo.
- cmd/analyze: a command-line tool based on multichecker
- singlechecker: a wrapper for writing single-checker tools
Analysis flags are unprefixed: -name=foo.
- passes/findcall/cmd/findcall: a standalone tool for the findcall analysis
- tests for findcall
- tests for pkgfact
