With the hybrid barrier, unless we're doing a STW GC or hit a very rare race (~once per all.bash) that can start mark termination before all of the work is drained, we don't need to drain the work queue at all. Even draining an empty work queue is rather expensive since we have to enter the getfull() barrier, so it's worth avoiding this. Conveniently, it's quite easy to detect whether or not we actually need the getufull() barrier: since the world is stopped when we enter mark termination, everything must have flushed its work to the work queue, so we can just check the queue. If the queue is empty and we haven't queued up any jobs that may create more work (which should always be the case with the hybrid barrier), we can simply have all GC workers perform non-blocking drains. Also conveniently, this solution is quite safe. If we do somehow screw something up and there's work on the work queue, some worker will still process it, it just may not happen in parallel. This is not the "right" solution, but it's simple, expedient, low-risk, and maintains compatibility with debug.gcrescanstacks. When we remove the gcrescanstacks fallback in Go 1.9, we should also fix the race that starts mark termination early, and then we can eliminate work draining from mark termination. Updates #17503.

The Go Programming Language
Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.
For documentation about how to install and use Go, visit https://golang.org/ or load doc/install-source.html in your web browser.
Our canonical Git repository is located at https://go.googlesource.com/go. There is a mirror of the repository at https://github.com/golang/go.
Go is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!
To contribute, please read the contribution guidelines: https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html
Note that we do not accept pull requests and that we use the issue tracker for bug reports and proposals only. Please ask questions on https://forum.golangbridge.org or https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-nuts.

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.
