nogo broken with ".facts" errors in 0.50.0

[aran]

What version of rules_go are you using?

0.50.0

What version of gazelle are you using?

0.38.0

What version of Bazel are you using?

7.3.1

Does this issue reproduce with the latest releases of all the above?

I think those are the latest

What operating system and processor architecture are you using?

macos/m2

Any other potentially useful information about your toolchain?

go_sdk 1.23.0

nogo set up:

load("@rules_go//go:def.bzl", "TOOLS_NOGO", "nogo")

nogo(
    name = "nogo",
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
    deps = TOOLS_NOGO,
)

What did you do?

In upgrading to 0.50.0, many go targets now fail with:

WARNING: Remote Cache: Expected output <...>/mycode.facts was not created locally.
WARNING: Remote Cache: Expected output <...>/mycode_lib.facts was not created locally.
ERROR: <mycode>/BUILD.bazel:3:11: output '<...>/mycode_lib.facts' was not created
ERROR: <mycode>/BUILD.bazel:10:10: output '<...>/mycode_lib.facts' was not created
ERROR: <mycode>/BUILD.bazel:10:10: Running nogo on <mycode>:mycode failed: not all outputs were created or valid
ERROR: <mycode>/BUILD.bazel:3:11: Running nogo on <mycode>:mycode_lib failed: not all outputs were created or valid

I tried clearing my `--disk_cache` target with no effect.

Removing `go_sdk.nogo(nogo = "...:nogo")` allows a successful build of all targets.


### What did you expect to see?

Successful build. 

### What did you see instead?

Errors referring to missing '.facts' files.

Basic usage like that is covered by tests, so there must be something else about your targets that tickles the bug. Could you try to cut down one of the failing targets to the point that you can share it?

https://github.com/aran/rules_go_4084 is small and has the issue for me. I also ran bazel clean --expunge to try it out. Just building with bazel build //..., it works without the nogo line in MODULE.bazel, and fails with the line present.

I have no idea why there is no error message in this case, but when I commented out the last of the analyzers in TOOLS_NOGO as an attempt to bisect the problem, I saw this panic:

panic: any

This makes me think that this is an issue in golang.org/x/tools and indeed, after bazel run @rules_go//go get golang.org/x/tools, the issue is gone.

@tyler-french We probably have to update golang.org/x/tools when we switch to Go 1.23.0 in CI.

Thanks for looking. That's a great help. In case anyone else stumbles here, I can workaround with this addition to MODULE.bazel:

# TODO: Remove when https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_go/issues/4084 is resolved 
go_deps.module(
    path = "golang.org/x/tools",
    # curl https://sum.golang.org/lookup/golang.org/x/[email protected]
    sum = "h1:J1shsA93PJUEVaUSaay7UXAyE8aimq3GW0pjlolpa24=",
    version = "v0.24.0",
)

and adding it to the go_deps:

use_repo(
    go_deps,
     ...
     "org_golang_x_tools",
     ...
