In the STW collector, next_gc was both the heap size to trigger GC at as well as the goal heap size. Early in the concurrent collector's development, next_gc was the goal heap size, but was also used as the heap size to trigger GC at. This meant we always overshot the goal because of allocation during concurrent GC. Currently, next_gc is still the goal heap size, but we trigger concurrent GC at 7/8*GOGC heap growth. This complicates shouldtriggergc, but was necessary because of the incremental maintenance of next_gc. Now we simply compute next_gc for the next cycle during mark termination. Hence, it's now easy to take the simpler route and redefine next_gc as the heap size at which the next GC triggers. We can directly compute this with the 7/8 backoff during mark termination and shouldtriggergc can simply test if the live heap size has grown over the next_gc trigger. This will also simplify later changes once we start setting next_gc in more sophisticated ways.

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.
