Currently we scan maps even if k/v does not contain pointers. This is required because overflow buckets are hanging off the main table. This change introduces a separate array that contains pointers to all overflow buckets and keeps them alive. Buckets themselves are marked as containing no pointers and are not scanned by GC (if k/v does not contain pointers). This brings maps in line with slices and chans -- GC does not scan their contents if elements do not contain pointers. Currently scanning of a map[int]int with 2e8 entries (~8GB heap) takes ~8 seconds. With this change scanning takes negligible time. Update #9477.

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 file). 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-source.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 https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
