We need to change the interface value representation for concurrent garbage collection, so that there is no ambiguity about whether the data word holds a pointer or scalar. This CL does NOT make any representation changes. Instead, it removes representation assumptions from various pieces of code throughout the tree. The isdirectiface function in cmd/gc/subr.c is now the only place that decides that policy. The policy propagates out from there in the reflect metadata, as a new flag in the internal kind value. A follow-up CL will change the representation by changing the isdirectiface function. If that CL causes problems, it will be easy to roll back. Update #8405.

README
This is the source code repository for the Go programming language.
For documentation about how to install and use Go,
visit http://golang.org/ or load doc/install-source.html
in your web browser.
After installing Go, you can view a nicely formatted
doc/install-source.html by running godoc --http=:6060
and then visiting http://localhost:6060/doc/install/source.
Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed
under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file.

Binary Distribution Notes
If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set
the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go
directory (the one containing this README). You can omit the
variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild
from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html).
You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin
to your shell's path.
For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might
put the following in your .profile:
export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
See doc/install.html for more details.
