The main server file mixed portable session handling with Unix details:
sending SIGHUP to end a session, decoding exec.ExitError, the euid check
for whether the process can switch users, agent forwarding's chown of the
socket, and reading /etc/ssh host keys as root. Those now sit behind small
functions (hangupProcess, waitProcess, canSwitchToLocalUser,
handleSSHAgentForwarding, systemHostKeyFile, isRootUser) in the new
process_unix.go, along with the incubator's forwarded-environment pipe
helpers, and the session's *exec.Cmd moves into an embedded osSessionState
struct defined there, so that the portable code no longer refers to the
process representation at all.
user.go keeps only the portable userMeta and userLookup; the login shell
and default PATH logic moves to user_unix.go. The SFTP child entrypoint and
its stdio adapter, which incubator.go and incubator_plan9.go each had a
copy of, move to sftp.go. The c2n usernames handler gains a hook for
platforms that list users some other way than /etc/passwd.
The agent socket's uid and gid are parsed as 31-bit rather than 32-bit
unsigned values so that the conversion to int for os.Chown cannot
overflow on 32-bit platforms, which is the pattern CodeQL flags.

The ts_omit_<name> build tags omit a feature at build time; there has
been no way to do the same at runtime. Some users (either proactively
or in response to a security announcement) might like a way to disable
a feature that's linked-in in their binaries that they're not using.
Then a mitigation announcement can say "set this env var" without
asking users to rebuild or wait for a new release.
This adds env var TS_DISABLE_FEATURE, a comma-separated list of
feature names to disable, and the listed set is reported by the
debug-optional-features LocalAPI endpoint next to the registered set.
The legacy per-feature knobs such as TS_DISABLE_SSH_SERVER and
TS_DISABLE_TAILDROP keep working independently.
A disabled feature behaves as if it had not been linked: it is absent
from feature.IsRegistered, its hooks are unset, and its extensions and
handlers are not registered. Three pieces make that happen:
* feature.Register now returns bool, false when disabled, and
feature packages gate their registration init on it. It was added
to the feature packages that never called it (including taildrop
and ssh), which also completes the picture reported by
debug-optional-features. taildrop, routecheck, favorites, and
serviceclientprefs had registration split across several inits and
now register from one gated init.
* ipnext.RegisterExtension ignores a disabled feature's extension.
* feature.Hook.Set and feature.Hooks.Add walk the call stack and
silently skip when the calling package under feature/<name> is
disabled. This covers sub-packages such as
feature/captiveportal/netcheckhook, which cannot call Register
themselves without colliding with their parent, and future
packages whose authors forget the gate.
ssh/tailssh's registrations moved from its inits into tailssh.Register,
called from feature/ssh's gated init. The aws and kube state stores and
syspolicy's Windows store registration are gated too.
feature/register_disable_test.go runs this test binary as a child
process (it links condregister, as tailscaled does) with
TS_DISABLE_FEATURE set to every registered feature at once, and fails
if any of them register anyway, so a feature that ignores the variable
cannot land.

Package tailcfg defines the types and constants used by the Tailscale
protocol, but since everything is all in one package, it’s difficult
to sift through the docs: https://pkg.go.dev/tailscale.com/tailcfg
We define and enumerate capabilities as string constants for
tailcfg.NodeCapability and tailcfg.PeerCapability. This PR extracts
them into their own packages:
- tailcfg.CapabilityFileSharing becomes nodecap.FileSharing
- tailcfg.NodeAttrOnlyTCP443 becomes nodecap.OnlyTCP443
- tailcfg.PeerCapabilityTaildrive becomes peercap.Taildrive
We originally intended for CapabilityFoo to grant an entitlement or
permission for Foo, and for NodeAttrBar to configure Bar in the
nodeAttrs section of the policy file. However, there was no technical
enforcement of this convention, so new capabilities have used the
NodeAttr prefix regardless of meaning. Therefore, this PR unifies
tailcfg.CapabilityFoo and tailcfg.NodeAttrBar into a single package as
nodecap.Foo and nodecap.Bar.
Ran `go fix -inline ./...` and committed the changes that replaced
uses of the tailcfg aliases with the authoritative ones.

The previous commit sent CHANNEL_EOF from the stdout copier as soon as
stdout hit EOF. With the process exited and the send window exhausted by
a slow client, the stderr copier could still be draining its backlog;
x/crypto/ssh fails every write after EOF (WriteExtended checks sentEOF),
so the tail of stderr was silently dropped.
Send CloseWrite from run() itself, after cmd.Wait, exit-status and both
output copiers have finished. Wire order is unchanged: exit-status,
remaining output, EOF, CHANNEL_CLOSE.
The test withholds stderr window credit until the process has exited
server-side, then releases it and checks the final bytes arrived. It
also pins the harness login shell to /bin/sh; fish forks -c commands and
stays resident, changing pipe fd ownership under test.

Send exit-status before EOF before CHANNEL_CLOSE per RFC 4254 §6.10.
The old code raced CloseWrite against Exit; macOS OpenSSH often saw
EOF first and dropped the exit code.
Replace atomic.Bool/atomic.Int32/channel sync with a sync.WaitGroup
over the output goroutines and emit:
cmd.Wait -> ss.Exit -> closeAll(childPipes) -> wg.Wait -> ss.Close
The stdin copier stays out of wg: it blocks reading from the SSH
channel until the client half-closes, and many clients (go-scp,
plain `ssh host cmd`, scp, sftp) don't half-close before they
receive CHANNEL_CLOSE from us. Including it deadlocks. It self-
cleans via deferred ss.Close.
Align exit codes with shell convention:
255 SSH-internal error (OpenSSH ssh.c:1693)
254 recording-infrastructure failure
127 command-not-found (POSIX)
Switch session termination from SIGKILL to SIGHUP, matching
OpenSSH PTY-master-close (session.c:2246). Process-group delivery
follows in a later commit.

Added before the fix so CI records the failure. Frame order is asserted
off the session interface rather than through a client, so it holds on
any GOOS instead of depending on how a particular client reacts.
Measured on CI against this commit, no fix yet:
TestExitStatusPrecedesEOF FAIL on darwin, linux/amd64 and the
privileged linux job, 10/10 retries, classified permanent:
got [eof exit-status], want [exit-status eof close]
TestExitCodePassthrough PASS on both
TestStderrTailNotTruncated PASS on both (guards a 2022 fix)
The ordering assertion is the only thing that pins this bug. Exit-code
assertions do not: OpenSSH 10.2p1 on darwin reads the pending
exit-status request after EOF just as linux does, so the wrong frame
order is invisible to the client's exit status over the direct-exec
path. The exit-status loss reported in #18256 comes from
/usr/bin/login -pq in the incubator path, which is a separate defect.

Add two narrower accessors alongside the existing
[LocalBackend.NetMap], with docs that distinguish their semantics:
- NetMapNoPeers: cheap (returns the cached *netmap.NetworkMap with
a possibly-stale Peers slice). For callers that only read non-Peers
fields like SelfNode, DNS, PacketFilter, capabilities.
- NetMapWithPeers: documented as returning an up-to-date Peers slice.
For callers that genuinely need to iterate Peers or call
PeerByXxx.
Mark the existing NetMap deprecated and point readers at the two new
accessors. NetMap, NetMapNoPeers, and NetMapWithPeers all currently
return the same value (b.currentNode().NetMap()): this commit is a
no-op behaviorally, just a renaming and migration of in-tree callers.
A subsequent change in the same series will switch
NetMapWithPeers to actually rebuild the Peers slice from the live
per-node-backend peers map (O(N) per call), at which point the
distinction between the two new accessors becomes load-bearing.
Migrate in-tree callers to the appropriate accessor based on what
fields they read:
- NetMapNoPeers (most common): localapi handlers, peerapi accept,
GetCertPEMWithValidity, web client noise request, doctor DNS
resolver check, tsnet CertDomains/TailscaleIPs, ssh/tailssh
SSH-policy/cap reads, several LocalBackend internals
(isLocalIP, allowExitNodeDNSProxyToServeName, pauseForNetwork
nil-check, serve config).
- NetMapWithPeers: writeNetmapToDiskLocked (persist full netmap to
disk for fast restart), PeerByTailscaleIP lookup.
Tests still call the legacy NetMap; they'll see the deprecation
warning but otherwise behave identically.
Also add two pieces of plumbing the next change in this series will
need, but which are already useful on their own:
- [client/local.GetDebugResultJSON]: a generic [Client.DebugResultJSON]
that decodes directly into a target type T, avoiding the
marshal/unmarshal roundtrip callers otherwise need.
- localapi "current-netmap" debug action: returns the current
netmap (with peers) as JSON. Documented as debug-only — the
netmap.NetworkMap shape is internal and may change without notice.
This commit is part of a series breaking up a larger change for
review; on its own it is a no-op refactor.

Parallelize the SSH integration tests across OS targets and reduce
per-container overhead:
- CI: use GitHub Actions matrix strategy to run all 4 OS containers
(ubuntu:focal, ubuntu:jammy, ubuntu:noble, alpine:latest) in parallel

- Makefile: run docker builds in parallel for local dev too
- Dockerfile: consolidate ~20 separate RUN commands into 5 (one per
test phase), eliminating Docker layer overhead. Combine test binary
invocations where no state mutation is needed between them. Fix a bug
where TestDoDropPrivileges was silently not being run (was passed as a
second positional arg to -test.run instead of using regex alternation).
- TestMain: replace tail -F + 2s sleep with synchronous log read,
eliminating 2s overhead per test binary invocation. Set debugTest once
in TestMain instead of redundantly in each test function.
- session.read(): close channel on EOF so non-shell tests return

When a recording upload fails mid-session, the recording goroutine
cancels the session context. This triggers two concurrent paths:
exec.CommandContext kills the process (causing cmd.Wait to return),
and killProcessOnContextDone tries to write the termination message
via exitOnce.Do. If cmd.Wait returns first, the main goroutine's
exitOnce.Do(func(){}) steals the once, and the termination message
is never written to the client.
Fix by waiting for killProcessOnContextDone to finish writing the
termination message (via <-ss.exitHandled) before claiming exitOnce,
when the context is already done.
Also fix the fallback path when launchProcess itself fails due to
context cancellation: use SSHTerminationMessage() with the correct
"\r\n\r\n" framing instead of fmt.Fprintf with the internal error
string.
Deflakes TestSSHRecordingCancelsSessionsOnUploadFailure, which was
failing consistently at a low rate due to the exitOnce race. After
this fix, flakestress passes with 8,668 runs, 0 failures.

Commit f905871fb moved host key generation from the ipnLocalBackend
interface (GetSSH_HostKeys) to the standalone getHostKeys function,
which requires either system host keys in /etc/ssh/ or a valid
TailscaleVarRoot to generate keys into. The testBackend returned ""
for TailscaleVarRoot, and the Docker test containers only install
openssh-client (no server host keys), so getHostKeys always failed.
When getHostKeys fails, HandleSSHConn returns the error but never
closes the TCP connection, so SSH clients hang forever waiting for
the server hello.
Fix by creating a temp directory in TestMain and returning it from
testBackend.TailscaleVarRoot().

When a recording upload fails mid-session, killProcessOnContextDone
writes the termination message to ss.Stderr() and kills the process.
Meanwhile, run() takes the ss.ctx.Done() path and proceeds to
ss.Exit(), which tears down the SSH channel. The termination message
write races with the channel teardown, so the client sometimes never
receives it.
Fix by adding an exitHandled channel that killProcessOnContextDone
closes when done. run() now waits on this channel after ctx.Done()
fires, ensuring the termination message is fully written before
the SSH channel is torn down.

OnPolicyChange can observe a conn in activeConns before authentication
completes. The previous `c.info == nil` guard was itself a data race
against clientAuth writing c.info, and even when c.info appeared
non-nil, c.localUser could still be nil, causing a nil pointer
dereference at c.localUser.Username.
Add an authCompleted atomic.Bool to conn, stored true after all auth
fields are written in clientAuth. OnPolicyChange checks this atomic
instead of c.info, which provides the memory barrier guaranteeing all
prior writes are visible to the concurrent reader.

This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in
the history of Tailscale's open source releases.
A Brief History of AUTHORS files
---
The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for
Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem
was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing
Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source
projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each
contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors
then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE
file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a
tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the
license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact.
The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the
copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then
include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The
Chromium Authors".
This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a
high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the
copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the
contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way
for the proejct maintainer to know.
Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to
keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to
it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors.
They are also clear that:
> Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the
> project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership.
It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors
that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was
entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even
the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright
holders.
In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists
Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes
confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header
in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so
it's ambiguous what that means.
Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever
they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We
also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which
provides some additional certification of their right to make the
contribution.
The source file changes were purely mechanical with:
git ls-files | xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g'

Send LOGIN audit messages to the kernel audit subsystem on Linux
when users successfully authenticate to Tailscale SSH. This provides
administrators with audit trail integration via auditd or journald,
recording details about both the Tailscale user (whois) and the
mapped local user account.
The implementation uses raw netlink sockets to send AUDIT_USER_LOGIN
messages to the kernel audit subsystem. It requires CAP_AUDIT_WRITE
capability, which is checked at runtime. If the capability is not
present, audit logging is silently skipped.
Audit messages are sent to the kernel (pid 0) and consumed by either
auditd (written to /var/log/audit/audit.log) or journald (available
via journalctl _TRANSPORT=audit), depending on system configuration.
Note: This may result in duplicate messages on a system where
auditd/journald audit logs are enabled and the system has and supports
`login -h`. Sadly Linux login code paths are still an inconsistent wild
west so we accept the potential duplication rather than trying to avoid
it.

In addition, in error cases the recover step of the permissions check was
spuriously panicking and masking the "real" failure reason. Don't do that check
when a command was not produced.

Also add a trailing newline to error banners so that SSH client messages don't print on the same line.

As noted in #16048, the ./ssh/tailssh package failed to build on
Android, because GOOS=android also matches the "linux" build
tag. Exclude Android like iOS is excluded from macOS (darwin).
This now works:
$ GOOS=android go install ./ipn/ipnlocal ./ssh/tailssh
The original PR at #16048 is also fine, but this stops the problem
earlier.

In tailssh.go:1284, (*sshSession).startNewRecording starts a fire-and-forget goroutine that can
outlive the test that triggered its creation. Among other things, it uses ss.logf, and may call it
after the test has already returned. Since we typically use (*testing.T).Logf as the logger,
this results in a data race and causes flaky tests.
Ideally, we should fix the root cause and/or use a goroutines.Tracker to wait for the goroutine
to complete. But with the release approaching, it's too risky to make such changes now.
As a workaround, we update the tests to use tstest.WhileTestRunningLogger, which logs to t.Logf
while the test is running and disables logging once the test finishes, avoiding the race.
While there, we also fix TestSSHAuthFlow not to use log.Printf.

Commit 4b525fdda (ssh/tailssh: only chdir incubator process to user's
homedir when necessary and possible, 2024-08-16) defers changing the
working directory until the incubator process drops its privileges.
However, it didn't account for the case where there is no incubator
process, because no tailscaled was found on the PATH. In that case, it
only intended to run `tailscaled be-child` in the root directory but
accidentally ran everything there.

Although, at the moment, we do not yet require an event bus to be present, as
we start to add more pieces we will want to ensure it is always available. Add
a new constructor and replace existing uses of new(tsd.System) throughout.
Update generated files for import changes.

And don't return a comma-separated string. That's kinda weird
signature-wise, and not needed by half the callers anyway. The callers
that care can do the join themselves.

Some clients don't request 'none' authentication. Instead, they immediately supply
a password or public key. This change allows them to do so, but ignores the supplied
credentials and authenticates using Tailscale instead.
