Brad Fitzpatrick c13a1f9c55 tstest: coalesce dropped Ticker ticks when advancing the clock far ahead
Clock.Advance previously fired each Ticker once per period between the
current time and the advance target, even though all but the first few
sends were dropped on the Ticker's full channel. A test that advances
the clock 180 days with a 5 second ticker registered did 3.1 million
fires, each taking a mutex, attempting a channel send, and fixing the
event heap. Under the race detector, where synchronization operations
are 20-30x more expensive, this dominated test runtime.

Now, when a tick is dropped because the channel is full, skip the
remaining missed ticks in one step, staying aligned to the original
schedule and still firing the final tick at or before the advance
target. This matches time.Ticker, which drops ticks it cannot deliver,
and is observably identical behavior. Ticks that fit in the channel are
still all delivered.

In the internal corp repo, this takes controlclient.TestExpiry under
race from 6.0s to 2.2s (its no-race time is 0.5s), and the new
benchmark improves from 449µs to 90ns per 24h advance:

  BenchmarkTickerLargeAdvance-16  100       449313 ns/op    (before)
  BenchmarkTickerLargeAdvance-16  13311910      90.22 ns/op (after)

Simon Law 0e84b4a3a0 tailcfg: replace int with DERPRegionID for additional type safety (#20646)
Historically, when DERP regions were switched away from strings to
numeric identifiers in PR #14641, tailcfg.Node.HomeDERP was declared
as an int instead of its own type.

This PR declares a new tailcfg.DERPRegionID type, represented by an
int64, and converts the following fields to use this type:

- netcheck.Report.PreferredDERP
- netcheck.Report.RegionLatency
- netcheck.Report.RegionV4Latency
- netcheck.Report.RegionV6Latency
- tailcfg.DERPHomeParams.RegionScore
- tailcfg.DERPMap.Regions
- tailcfg.DERPNode.RegionID
- tailcfg.DERPRegion.RegionID
- tailcfg.NetInfo.PreferredDERP
- tailcfg.Node.HomeDERP
- tailcfg.PeerChange.DERPRegion
- tailcfg.PingResponse.DERPRegionID

Note that the original field was an int, while the new field is backed
by an int64. This change makes DERPRegionID the same size on both
32-bit and 64-bit architectures.

James Tucker 0d66cde14f tstest/membudget: add live-heap budget regression tests
Static size checks (iossize) catch binary dirty-page growth but nothing
covered runtime heap cost, which is what actually consumes the iOS
Network Extension's 50 MiB jetsam budget. Bring up a tsnet backend
(with the full condregister feature set, matching shipping clients)
against an in-process testcontrol server and assert live post-GC heap
budgets for (a) backend startup with zero peers and (b) marginal cost
per netmap peer.

The startup test measures 1.3 MiB today and fails loudly on the
conn25 flow-table pre-allocation regression (17 MiB) that jetsam-killed
the iOS extension on large tailnets.

Budgets are deliberately generous (6-12x current measurements) to stay
flake-free while still catching the multi-MiB regressions that matter
for mobile.

A new debugknob enables us to constrain the GSO/GRO batch size to 1 for
these tests so as to avoid the memory allocation associated with those
buffers, which are a known issue with their own work stream.

Michael Renner ea9b1a2309 tka: avoid quadratic filesystem scans
Since #17567, FS.ChildAUMs scans and decodes every active AUM file.
Authority reconstruction and compaction call it repeatedly, making
filesystem work quadratic in the number of AUMs.

Build per-FS indexes of active AUM hashes and parent-to-child
relationships in one scan. Use the indexes for graph queries while
continuing to decode returned AUM values from disk. Invalidate the
indexes after mutations, but retain them for empty purges.

A production-sized 825-AUM benchmark improves from 124 seconds to
4 seconds on macOS with Defender and from 5.9 seconds to 34 milliseconds
on Linux ext3. The checked-in benchmark exercises the 2,000-AUM maximum
linear history accepted by the traversal guardrail.

RELNOTE: Avoid Tailnet Lock startup failures with large authority histories.

Brendan Creane efae57a58c tstest/natlab: test that a peer's name doesn't shadow a bare upstream name (#20804)
* tstest/natlab: test that a peer's name doesn't shadow a bare upstream name

With MagicDNS off, only suffixed names should be answered locally, but
since 1.102 quad-100 also answers a bare, unqualified name whenever a
tailnet device shares that name. It returns the device's Tailscale IP
instead of forwarding to the tailnet's global nameserver, leaving the
upstream record unreachable.

TestBareNameNotHijackedByPeer configures a global nameserver owning a
single-label name, adds a peer named to collide with it, and asserts the
client's lookup returns the upstream address. It queries via "tailscale
dns query" so the name stays a single label; a search domain completing
it would resolve a different name and pass regardless.

Add SplitDNSBareName to vnet's split-DNS zone to serve that name, and a
packet-level case asserting the fake server answers it.

* tstest/natlab: check short names resolve via quad-100 when MagicDNS is on

TestMagicDNS asserted a peer's short name resolves, but through getent
with a search domain configured: libc completed it to the FQDN, so the
lookup never asked quad-100 for a single label. The bare-name path the
resolver takes when MagicDNS is enabled was untested.

Query the short name with "tailscale dns query" too, which asks for
exactly the name given. This is the enabled-MagicDNS mirror of
TestBareNameNotHijackedByPeer, and pins the other side of the condition
added in 1ec348784: a fix that dropped short names unconditionally,
rather than only when MagicDNS is disabled, now fails here.

M. J. Fromberger e592a0c363 staticcheck.conf: enable ST1000 to check package docs (#20787)
Fix the small number of existing violations of this check, and enable it for
future runs. The fixes needed were:

 - Clean up a few misspelled package names (probably renames).
 - Clean up a few lexical nits ("Package x" instead of "The x package").
 - Add lint directives to some files affected by build tag variance.
 - Add a missing package comment and re-generate the k8s docs.

The lint overrides are a little ugly, but there are only a few places where we
need them, and it's probably worthwhile to enable the check on the rest of the
repo. Rather than replicate the docs around the build tag, I made the lint
diagnotics reference the "correct" file.

Simon Law 00699abdfb tailcfg,tailcfg/{nodecap,selfcap}: split capability constants to their own packages (#20639)
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.

Brendan CreaneandClaude Opus 5 a265908a72 tstest/natlab: add a second fake DNS server and split-DNS tests (#20553)
Add a second fake DNS server (4.11.4.12) serving a zone the default one
doesn't, so a split-DNS route can be verified: resolving that name proves the
query was forwarded there.

Tailscale implements a split-DNS route two ways, and a test covers each. When
the OS resolver supports split DNS and every route shares one resolver set,
tailscaled hands the OS that resolver directly and quad-100 stays out of the
query path; TestSplitDNSOSForwarded covers this, reaching the split resolver
over a subnet route as a real deployment would. Otherwise the OS is pointed at
quad-100, which forwards per-domain itself; TestSplitDNS covers this against
both the systemd-resolved and direct backends, along with the other ways a
lookup resolves -- answered locally by quad-100 from an extra record or from the
netmap, and unrouted names still going to the machine's normal resolver.

TestSplitDNSNoMagicDNS covers split DNS on a tailnet with MagicDNS off, which
the two above leave out: one has mixed resolver sets but MagicDNS on, the other
MagicDNS off but a single resolver set. Together those conditions take a
distinct path through compileConfig, where tailscaled reads the OS base
resolver config rather than scoping quad-100 to a match domain.

Both arrangements produce the same answers, so each test also asserts the
guest's resolver state to prove which one it exercised.

Brad Fitzpatrick 0dfe672b32 ipn/ipnlocal: allow the ingress peer capability for unsigned peers (#20745)
0eb38dc2e (#20561) made peer capability resolution return nothing for
peers with UnsignedPeerAPIOnly set, so that a possibly malicious
control server can't grant capabilities to peers outside the tailnet
lock authority. But Tailscale Funnel ingress nodes are unsigned by
design, and control intentionally grants them
PeerCapabilityIngress, which the peerapi /v0/ingress handler requires.
The result was that every Funnel connection was rejected with a 403
"denied; no ingress cap".

Instead of denying all capabilities to unsigned peers, allowlist
PeerCapabilityIngress specifically. It only permits ingress requests
over the PeerAPI, which unsigned peers can already reach, and the
node only serves them for targets explicitly configured for Funnel.

The tsnet TestFunnel didn't catch the regression because its fake
ingress peer was a normal signed peer. Teach testcontrol to mark a
node as UnsignedPeerAPIOnly (excluding such nodes from traffic-
permitting filter rules, as real control does, so clients don't
discard the packet filter) and make TestFunnel use it so the test
now exercises the same capability checks as production Funnel
traffic.

Brad Fitzpatrick c0c453334a ipn/ipnlocal: evict stale node indexes when a delta upsert replaces a peer
When a node is renamed in the admin console, control sends peers a
single MapResponse delta: a PeersChanged entry carrying the full
updated node with its new Name, and no new DNSConfig (MagicDNS
records are computed client-side from peer names). That arrives as a
NodeMutationUpsert, but nodeBackend's upsert path only added the new
node's index entries and never removed the replaced node's, so
nodeByName retained the old name, and nodeByAddr, nodeByKey, and
nodeByStableID could likewise go stale if those fields changed.

Since 7e609b258 the quad-100 resolver serves MagicDNS answers on
demand from those live indexes, so a renamed peer's old name kept
resolving until something rebuilt the indexes from a full netmap,
such as toggling Tailscale off and on.

Evict the replaced node's index entries before adding the new ones.
Also consolidate the natlab DNS coverage into a single TestMagicDNS
that boots one VM and exercises extra records, search domains, and
peer add/rename/remove end to end, injecting the same MapResponse
shapes that production control sends.

Brad Fitzpatrick 420a8e5a1a drive/driveimpl: handle Unicode normalization mismatches in filenames
Files whose names contain characters with Unicode decompositions (such
as umlauts or voiced kana) could not be opened or written over
Taildrive.

Background: keyboards and IMEs emit NFC (precomposed) characters on
every platform, so filenames on Linux (ext4 etc) and Windows (NTFS)
disks are usually NFC bytes. NFD (decomposed) names mostly come from
Apple software: HFS+ forced a variant of NFD on write, and Apple's
frameworks still decompose paths via fileSystemRepresentation. APFS
preserves whatever bytes it is given but does normalization-insensitive
lookups (it stores a hash of the normalized name), so canonically
equivalent names find the same file. ext4 and NTFS lookups, by
contrast, are byte-exact.

On the wire, the macOS WebDAV client sends paths in NFD form (they
pass through the decomposing file system representation, and unlike
Apple's NFS client there is no "nfc" mount option). Windows and Linux
WebDAV clients pass names through as the application provided them,
typically NFC. WebDAV itself mandates no normalization, and PROPFIND
hrefs reflect the server's on-disk bytes.

The two forms are canonically equivalent but byte-wise different, so a
macOS client requesting the NFD form of an NFC-named file on a Linux
or Windows host got a 404 from the exact-byte lookup. Even against an
APFS host, where the filesystem absorbs the mismatch, the client-side
StatCache could still infer a 404: a cached directory listing in one
form caused depth 0 PROPFINDs in the other form to be treated as not
found without ever reaching the server. The inverse direction (NFD
bytes on a Linux disk, copied there from a Mac, requested in NFC form
by a Windows or Linux client) was broken too.

Alternative regimes considered: normalizing names at storage time (as
Nextcloud and Syncthing's autoNormalize do) would rename user files in
shared directories as a side effect of serving them; normalizing
request paths to a fixed form on the wire is unsound because the
on-disk form is unknowable a priori (ext4 can hold either form, or
both). Instead, adopt the APFS model: preserve bytes, but make lookups
normalization-insensitive.

Concretely, wrap the remote file server's webdav.Dir in a
normalizingFS that, when an exact path lookup fails, rescans the
parent directory for an entry whose name is canonically equivalent,
comparing the NFC form of both sides (which also sidesteps Apple's
nonstandard decomposition tables). Exact matches always win, and newly
created files keep the exact bytes the client sent. Also NFC-normalize
StatCache keys so canonically equivalent names share a cache entry.

The change is covered at three levels: unit tests for the StatCache,
an in-process two-node test in drive/driveimpl, and a new TestTaildrive
VM integration test in tstest/natlab/vmtest that shares a directory
between two Ubuntu VMs and exercises the NFC/NFD cases over the real
stack with curl playing the part of a macOS WebDAV client.

Brendan Creane a7cb5745a2 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add Fedora + DNS-backend coverage, harden non-KVM boot (#20409)
* tstest/natlab/vmtest: make cloud VM boot robust without KVM

Adding heavier distro images (Fedora) surfaced several ways the cloud VM
boot path breaks under TCG software emulation (no /dev/kvm), especially
with multiple concurrent VMs on few cores.

- Add a virtio-rng device to the cloud path so early boot doesn't block in
  getrandom() waiting for the CRNG to seed.
- When no hardware acceleration is available, relax the stuck-console
  watchdog (tuned for KVM's ~1-2s first output) and serialize VM boots so a
  heavy guest doesn't starve its siblings' emulation threads.
- Bound the bring-up context to the test deadline and dump each VM's console
  on failure, so a hang surfaces as a diagnosable Fatalf instead of an
  opaque `go test -timeout` panic (which skips cleanups).

The "vm" CI job ran a single test (TestRunUbuntu2404 from
tstest/integration/vms) on a privileged self-hosted runner. Its coverage
is nearly all redundant with the modern natlab vmtest suite, which boots
real Ubuntu VMs and already exercises connectivity, kernel TUN, SSH,
Taildrop, ACME, and OS DNS integration on GitHub-hosted runners.

The two things it tested that natlab didn't are added back as natlab
tests so the runner can be decommissioned:

TestUbuntuSystemdUnit runs tailscaled via the stock systemd unit that
Linux packages ship (cmd/tailscaled/tailscaled.service with
tailscaled.defaults as its EnvironmentFile) instead of launching the
binary directly, verifying the unit's directives and its Type=notify
readiness handshake.

TestDNSExtraRecordsSearchDomains verifies that control-plane DNS
ExtraRecords and search domains are resolvable through the guest's OS
resolver (libc to systemd-resolved to quad-100).

current kernel.org releases (Linux 7.1.3 as of this change) and is the
gokrazy project's supported kernel for x86_64 PCs and VMs.

CI workflow to gokrazy/kernel.amd64, drop the tailscale/gokrazy-kernel
dependency, and update gokrazy/kernel.arm64 to latest while here.

the feature's Bird handle at startup. The subnet router overlap
detection and protocol toggling move into feature/bird, preserving
the previous ordering: state is recomputed before Reconfig's
ErrNoChanges early return and applied after the router is configured.

tailscaled keeps BIRD support by default on the platforms that
previously had it (linux, darwin, freebsd, openbsd) via
feature/condregister.

Also, add an integration test, as this feature lacked much test
coverage previously.

Brad Fitzpatrick c436dec43c tstest, cmd/tta: add Tailscale SSH end-to-end VM test
Add TestTailscaleSSH to tstest/natlab/vmtest, exercising the Tailscale
SSH server (tailscale up --ssh, not a system sshd) end to end: an
Ubuntu client node SSHes over the tailnet into an Ubuntu server node
as both root and a non-root user, and into a gokrazy node.

The gokrazy sessions exercise the gokrazy special cases in the SSH
code: util/osuser hard-codes the login shell to serial-busybox ash and
synthesizes a root user when lookup fails (so any username works and
becomes root, unlike Ubuntu where nonexistent users are rejected), and
the incubator's findSU refuses su on gokrazy, handling sessions
in-process.

To support this, testcontrol gains an SSHPolicy field that's sent in
MapResponses along with the CapabilitySSH node capability, tta's /up
handler accepts an ssh=true parameter, and vmtest gains a
TailscaleSSH node option that wires the two together with a
permissive any-principal policy.

Brad Fitzpatrick 18a95394df ipn/ipnlocal: shut down old control client before starting new one
LocalBackend.Start previously shut down the previous control client in
a goroutine, letting it run concurrently with the new one. An in-flight
lite map update carrying stale Hostinfo.RequestTags could then be
processed by the control plane after the new client had already changed
the node's tags. Control treats such a request as an invalid tag
transition and expires the node key to force a reauth, so retagging a
node with "tailscale up --advertise-tags" intermittently logged the
machine out.

Instead, detach the old client under b.mu and shut it down
synchronously with the lock released, before creating the new client.
Shutdown cancels the old client's in-flight requests and waits for its
goroutines to exit, so the cancellation of any stale update reaches the
server before the new client sends its first request. Per the deadlock
history in #18052, Shutdown must not be called with b.mu held; this
uses the same pattern as DisconnectControl.

Also teach the testcontrol server to model the control plane's tag
transition handling (including expiring the node key on an invalid
transition and ignoring updates from canceled requests), add an
integration test reproducing the race, and add an ipnlocal test
verifying that Start waits for the old client to shut down.

Brad Fitzpatrick 125fd88c30 tstest/natlab: fix vnet TCP throughput collapse to slow guests
FreeBSD guests downloaded their test binaries from vnet's
files.tailscale VIP at roughly 250 kB/s in CI, and transfers sometimes
wedged outright for many minutes, which is why TestSubnetRouterFreeBSD
timed out in about a third of its runs. Locally the same path moves
data at 100+ MB/s, so the problem was never CPU; it was TCP behavior
under two independent constraints, both diagnosed with a new
throughput harness (TestVnetPerfFreeBSDDownload), a VNET_TCP_DEBUG
endpoint sampler, and pcaps:

First, throughput is capped at receive-window/RTT. FreeBSD starts its
receive window at 64 kB and autoscales it in slow 16 kB steps, and on
an oversubscribed CI runner the effective RTT of the userspace vnet
data path reaches hundreds of milliseconds, giving almost exactly the
observed 250 kB/s. Fix: raise the FreeBSD guest's TCP buffer sysctls
in cloud-init before the downloads, and raise netstack's receive
buffer sizing for the reverse (upload) direction.

Second, the outright wedge: when netstack bursts more data than the
QEMU socket plus the guest's virtio RX ring can absorb, a wide swath
of segments is dropped downstream of vnet, and netstack's loss
recovery then crawls, retransmitting one or two segments per 200 ms
RTO for minutes at a time (a 33 MB transfer was observed taking 526
seconds against an otherwise idle receiver). Rather than depending on
recovery from mass loss, make the path effectively lossless by keeping
the maximum in-flight data (the 1 MB netstack send buffer) below the
downstream buffering: grow the guests' virtio RX rings from 256 to
1024 descriptors, enlarge the vnet-QEMU unix socket buffers, and grow
the netstack link endpoint queue from 512 to 4096 packets so a send
burst can't overflow it.

Also fixed along the way, found while chasing the above:

  * pcapWriter fsync'd after every packet, serializing all traffic
    behind disk writes when a test enables pcap; a pcap-enabled run
    was capped at about 290 kB/s. Keep the per-packet Flush but drop
    the per-packet fsync.
  * Traffic originating from vnet's own netstack (control plane,
    DERP, file servers) bypassed conditionedWrite, so SetLatency and
    SetPacketLoss silently didn't apply to it.
  * writeEthernetFrameToVM held one global mutex (and a shared
    scratch buffer) across writes to all VMs, so one guest slow to
    drain its socket stalled traffic to every VM on the server. The
    write lock is now per-VM-connection.

TestSubnetRouterFreeBSD now passes locally in 31s (down from 4.5
minutes), still passes with the vnet simulating a 100 ms RTT
(downloads at 2-8 MB/s, previously 250-600 kB/s), and passes in 65s
with KVM disabled while pinned to two host CPUs, a harsher environment
than the CI runners. The benchmark test is opt-in via
--run-perf-tests (in addition to --run-vm-tests) so CI doesn't spend
a matrix job re-measuring it on every run. VMTEST_NO_KVM=1
forces TCG for reproducing slow-host behavior.

Brad Fitzpatrick b6e17df646 cmd/tailscaled, util/syspolicy: add JSON syspolicy file support
Tailscaled had no way to seed device-scope syspolicy settings short of
environment variables or a custom store wired up out of tree. Add a
--syspolicy-file flag whose default points at a well-known JSON file
that, when present, is parsed as a map[string]any and registered as a
device-scope policy source. The default path is
/etc/tailscale/syspolicy.json on every non-Windows platform (Linux, the
BSDs, illumos/Solaris, and tailscaled-without-the-GUI on macOS) and
%ProgramData%\Tailscale\syspolicy.json on Windows. The flag lets users
running tailscaled by hand (development, custom installs) point it at
an alternate file, and "" disables the load entirely.

JSON values map to setting types as expected: strings to
StringValue/PreferenceOptionValue/VisibilityValue/DurationValue (e.g.
"24h" parsed by time.ParseDuration), booleans to BooleanValue, numbers
to IntegerValue, and string arrays to StringListValue. The file is
validated against the registered setting definitions at load time so
unknown keys and value/type mismatches fail startup loudly rather than
producing surprising defaults at first read.

When HuJSON support is linked into the build (default; opt out with
ts_omit_hujsonconf), the file may use HuJSON (comments, trailing
commas). With ts_omit_hujsonconf it must be pure standard JSON. This
mirrors the pattern used by ipn/conffile.

On Windows the JSON file and the existing HKLM registry store both
register at DeviceScope. rsop merges later-registered same-scope
sources over earlier ones, so per-key values in the file override the
registry while keys absent from the file fall back to the registry.

The loader is registered via a feature.Hook from a file gated by
!ts_omit_syspolicy, and called from main after flag parsing. tsnet
still does not depend on the root syspolicy package, so embedders
don't pick this up implicitly.

Brad Fitzpatrick 66af25733c tstest/natlab/vmtest, client/web: add web client integration tests
Adds two Gokrazy-based vmtests covering the tailscaled web client at
port 5252:

* TestWebClientLocalAccess enables the web client on a single node
  and exercises the canonical owner session flow against the node's
  own Tailscale IP: an unauthenticated GET /api/auth that identifies
  the caller, a GET /api/auth/session/new that issues a
  TS-Web-Session cookie, and a final GET /api/auth that reports
  authorized=true with the cookie.

* TestWebClientRemoteAccess runs the same session flow from a peer
  node on the same tailnet against a second target node's web
  client, exercising netstack interception of incoming :5252
  traffic, cross-node WhoIs, and the same-user "owner" path. It
  then flips the test control server's AllNodesSameUser off,
  re-logs in the client under a fresh identity, and asserts that
  GET /api/auth/session/new returns 401 with body "not-owner" --
  exercising the cross-user rejection in client/web/auth.go.

To make the natlab test environment exercise the same code path
as production (check mode, where the web client posts to
/machine/webclient/init via Noise and waits on a control-issued
auth URL), this also:

* Allowlists the natlab fake control hostname "control.tailscale"
  in client/web/auth.go's controlSupportsCheckMode so the web
  client follows the check-mode branch rather than the
  no-check-mode shortcut that immediately marks new sessions
  authenticated.

* Adds /machine/webclient/{init,wait} handlers to testcontrol.
  init returns a placeholder auth ID and URL; wait returns
  Complete=true immediately, so the web client's awaitUserAuth
  resolves on its first call. Together these let the tests drive
  the full check-mode session lifecycle without a real
  browser-click loop.

To support the multi-request HTTP flows from the test harness,
this also adds:

* vmtest.Env.HTTPGetStatus, a sister of HTTPGet that returns the
  upstream status code, body, and Set-Cookie cookies (as a
  vmtest.HTTPResponse) and accepts cookies on the outgoing
  request, so tests can drive flows that depend on cookie
  continuity.

* Cookie pass-through in cmd/tta's /http-get handler: it forwards
  the Cookie request header upstream and surfaces upstream
  Set-Cookie response headers downstream. This is what lets
  HTTPGetStatus carry a session cookie across requests.

Previously the only tests of the web client were in-process
httptest-based handler tests in client/web/web_test.go; nothing
exercised the actual port 5252 listener wiring, the cross-node
auth path, cookie-driven session state transitions through the
check-mode control round-trip, or the not-owner rejection end
to end.

Brad Fitzpatrick 4bb6f35c1f ipn/ipnlocal: consolidate test-only LocalBackend methods behind ForTest
Move all the FooForTest methods on LocalBackend to instead be
methods on a new unexported forTest type which is then given out
to callers in other packages via an exported ForTest method
(panicking in non-test contexts) that returns that unexported type.

This is unusual style (exported returning unexported) but declutters
godoc and makes call sites both more explicit and easier to read
without the "ForTest" suffix polluting the symbols. Now FooForTest()
changes into ForTest().Foo().

This was motivated by a pending change moving a bunch of code out of
LocalBackend into other packages that required adding more ForTest
methods to LocalBackend to keep the tests (now in other packages)
working. Instead, do this refactor now so the future change is prettier.

prometheus/common v0.66/v0.67 introduced a mandatory
model.ValidationScheme on expfmt.TextParser as part of
prepping for UTF-8 metric/label names in Prometheus 3.0. The
zero value is intentionally UnsetValidation, which panics on
the first call to IsValidMetricName / IsValidLabelName with

  Invalid name validation scheme requested: unset

so the long-standing "var parser expfmt.TextParser" pattern
crashes at runtime. Several big downstreams have hit the same
sharp edge:

  https://github.com/thanos-io/thanos/issues/8823
  https://github.com/grafana/loki/pull/21401

Switch our two callers (parseMetrics in tsnet's
TestUserMetricsByteCounters and the client-metrics scraper in
tstest/natlab/vmtest) to the new expfmt.NewTextParser
constructor with model.LegacyValidation. LegacyValidation
matches the classic ASCII metric/label naming rules that
tailscaled's exporter uses today; if and when we ever emit a
metric with a UTF-8 name, we can revisit.

Goes to v0.69.0 (the latest at the time of writing) rather
than v0.67.5 so we pick up the unrelated security fixes for
cross-host redirects.

Done in advance so a follow-up change can pull in
github.com/tailscale/policybottest (which depends on
palantir/policy-bot, which transitively requires
prometheus/common at v0.67+) without dragging this debugging
into that PR.

Brad Fitzpatrick 0bc0cb8131 tstest/natlab/vmtest: retry SSHExec on transient SSH failures
Add a retry loop with BatchMode=yes to absorb the race window
between Env.Start() returning (when tta reports the tailscale
backend as Running) and cloud-init finishing the user/SSH-key
setup. In CI, the second VM's tta agent has been observed
connecting only a few hundred milliseconds before the test SSHes
in, which is inside the window where /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
hasn't fully landed yet. SSH key auth then fails and ssh(1) falls
back to interactive password prompts (3x), wasting time and
producing a confusing "Permission denied (publickey,password)"
error.

BatchMode=yes makes the client fail fast on auth failure instead
of prompting, and the retry loop handles SSH transport-level
errors (exit code 255) for up to 30 seconds with 500ms backoff.
Remote command non-zero exits still pass through unchanged.

Both tests started flaking after my 910735448 ("tstest/natlab/vnet:
send unsolicited IPv6 Router Advertisements") added background RA
traffic on v6-enabled networks.

TestPacketSideEffects races the periodic unsolicited-RA goroutine
against its synchronous packet-count assertions: when the multicast
RA fires after the test has registered its sinks, both sinks receive
it and "got 1 packet, want N" becomes "got N+2".

TestProtocolQEMU's reader was doing raw Read on the SOCK_STREAM unix
socket and comparing the whole result to the expected length-prefixed
packet. The kernel is free to coalesce the on-register RA frame and
the test packet into one Read, in which case bytes.Equal fails and
the entire chunk (including the test packet's bytes) gets discarded
as "unexpected", leading to a 5s i/o timeout. Parse the QEMU uint32
length-prefix framing with io.ReadFull instead so we read exactly one
frame per iteration regardless of how the kernel buffers them. The
SOCK_DGRAM path (TestProtocolUnixDgram) keeps the original raw Read
since datagram boundaries are preserved.

These where the top two flakes in oss on the flakes dashboards.

Mike O'Driscoll 732bde6e86 tstest/natlab: test home DERP is re-reported after a profile switch (#20051)
Add a vmtest that guards the fix in #20025: after an in-process control
client swap (profile switch / interactive re-login), magicsock's NetInfo
dedup cache (netInfoLast) must be cleared so the structurally-identical
post-switch NetInfo (same PreferredDERP, same NAT shape) is re-reported to
the new control session rather than suppressed as unchanged.

The test brings a node up, pins its home DERP so the reported NetInfo is
identical across the switch, records the home DERP the test control learned,
switches to a fresh login profile on the same control/network/NAT/DERP, and
asserts the control re-learns the same non-zero home DERP for the node's new
identity. Without ResetNetInfoLast the assertion times out at HomeDERP=0.

To support this, vnet now serves the test control on port 443 (TLS) in
addition to port 80: an immediate re-login makes a fresh noise dial, and
because the prior dial was recent the control client forces an HTTPS (443)
dial (controlhttp.Dialer.forceNoise443), which the harness previously did
not answer. The control endpoint gets its own self-signed cert (the existing
selfSignedDERPCert helper, renamed to the generic selfSignedCert); the cert
is not validated since control noise dials authenticate via the Noise
handshake, so it only needs a TLS peer to complete the forced 443 dial.

Add Env.ForcePreferredDERP and Env.Relogin helpers for the above.

Brad Fitzpatrick 9107354488 tstest/natlab/vnet: send unsolicited IPv6 Router Advertisements
vnet only ever sent IPv6 RAs in response to a Router Solicitation. In
practice this meant gokrazy VMs running with a dual-stack LAN never
installed vnet's IPv6 default route: gokrazy brings the link up via
DHCPv4 and the kernel never emits an RS on its own under that init
path. Off-link IPv6 destinations like the fake DERP servers were
therefore unreachable from any gokrazy test node that also had v4
on the same interface. (Pure-v6 nodes happened to work because the
kernel sends an RS as part of v6-only autoconf.)

Fix this in two complementary ways:

  - Send an unsolicited RA every 5s to the link-local all-nodes group
    on every v6-enabled network. This matches what real routers do
    (RFC 4861 §6.2.1, MaxRtrAdvInterval; we use a much shorter
    interval than the spec's 200s default so short-lived tests don't
    have to wait).

  - Send a unicast RA to a newly-registered MAC as soon as a client
    first transmits on the wire. Without this the first periodic RA
    can land before any VM has connected and the next one isn't
    until the next tick, which can be longer than the test runs.

Factor the RA serialization out into buildIPv6RouterAdvertisement so
the solicited, periodic, and per-client paths all share one body.

Update TestSelfSignedDERPHashPinning to use a dual-stack hard-NAT
builder and assert zero errors from DebugDERPRegion (instead of
filtering "over IPv6" errors as it had to before this change). The
new builder also sets TS_DEBUG_STRIP_ENDPOINTS=1 on tailscaled so
disco can't find a direct path: without endpoint stripping, the now-
working non-NATted IPv6 LAN gives the two hard-NAT'd nodes a direct
route, defeating the test's "must traverse DERP" assertion. (Hard
NAT alone was enough before this change because v6 routing was
broken.) Also update sendBetweenClients in the vnet unit tests to
tolerate the new on-register RA noise on its read path.

itself failing with "unexpected multiple certs presented") was fixed in

Extract a tlsConfigForNode helper that mirrors derphttp.Client.tlsClient
so that sha256-raw and domain-fronting CertName values are dispatched
to tlsdial.SetConfigExpectedCertHash and tlsdial.SetConfigExpectedCert
respectively, falling back to HostName when CertName is empty.

The core fix here was originally written by @imnuke in #19965; that PR
also added a unit test in ipn/localapi/debugderp_test.go which is
replaced in this commit by a new vmtest that exercises the whole stack:
vnet now serves a self-signed cert valid for each fake DERP node's
HostName and exposes its SHA-256 fingerprint, and vmtest grows a new
SelfSignedDERPCertPinning EnvOption that swaps the test DERP map's
nodes to CertName="sha256-raw:<hex>" with InsecureForTests cleared.
TestSelfSignedDERPHashPinning then stands up two hard-NAT'd nodes, has
them communicate over DERP, and calls DebugDERPRegion on each. Before
this fix the test fails with the exact x509 hostname-mismatch error
from the original bug; after, it passes.

Brad Fitzpatrick 94af1b00fb cmd/testwrapper, tstest: move test sharding out of test code
Previously, sharding required tests to opt in by calling tstest.Shard,
which used a process-global counter to assign each test to a shard.
This had two problems: most tests didn't call it, so they ran on every
shard (defeating the purpose), and shard assignments were unstable
(depended on call order, so adding a test could reshuffle others).

Remove tstest.Shard and tstest.SkipOnUnshardedCI entirely. Instead,
have testwrapper implement sharding automatically for all tests: when
TS_TEST_SHARD=N/M is set, it uses "go list -json" (no compilation) to
find test source files, scans them for top-level Test/Benchmark/
Example/Fuzz function names, and filters by fnv32a(name) % M == N-1.
The filtered names are passed as an anchored -run regex to go test.

Using go list instead of "go test -list" avoids linking the test binary
twice (Go's build cache does not cache test binary linking).

Fixes #19886

Brad Fitzpatrick 364b952d62 cmd/containerboot: track peers from IPN bus updates, stop using netmap.NetworkMap
Some tests in another repo were broken by tailscale/tailscale#19607.
This fixes them, by finishing off the rest of the migration away from
netmap.NetworkMap on the IPN bus in containerboot.

Containerboot used to rebuild a full NetworkMap-shaped view while
reacting to IPN bus notifications. Now it insteads has its own
netmapState type (immutable) of exactly what it needs to track, and
sends those immutable values around, making cheap edits of new
immutable values when an IPN bus edit arrives.

This should make cmd/containerboot scale to much larger tailnets now too.

Claus Lensbøl 9be21088f4 wgengine/{,magicsock},tstest/natlab/vmtest: send disco on cached netmap (#19878)
Originally found when adding tests for working with cached netmaps, and
finding the added tests to be flakey.

When working off of a cached netmap, if a node exists in the cached
netmap but does not yet have any endpoints, DERP connections are
available but not direct ones. By sending callMeMaybe to nodes
without endpoints in the cached netmap, we can establish direct
connections for this edge case.

Aditionally, ensure that TSMP disco advert messages are not sent if the
endpoint does not have a valid address yet.

Brad Fitzpatrick 2c965ab540 types/netmap, ipn/ipnlocal, control/controlclient: rename NodeMutationAdd to NodeMutationUpsert
NodeMutationAdd was a misleading name: a PeersChanged entry in a
MapResponse can represent either a truly new peer or a full
replacement for an existing peer that couldn't be expressed as a
PeerChangedPatch. Calling it "Add" implied it was always a completely
new node, which is wrong.  (I'd changed my mind on the design of
mapping add/delete events to NodeMutations halfway through #19607 and
forgot to update the name, even though I'd updated half the docs)

Rename it to NodeMutationUpsert to reflect the actual semantics: the
node should be inserted or replaced in the peer map regardless of
whether it already existed.

Simon Law 988615dbad ipn/ipnlocal,tstest/integration: pause the control client consistently (#19846)
There are two places where tailscaled transitions into a paused state:
1. tailscaled’s controlclient is initially created,
2. tailscale down, or the GUI equivalent, commands it to.

This patch unifies the implementation of both scenarios into
LocalBackend.shouldPauseControlClientLocked to prevent the
implementation from drifting.

The flaky tstest/integration.TestNoControlConnWhenDown test exposed
this mismatch, but only by accident. This patch also changes
TestNode.MustDown so that it runs `tailscale down` and then waits for
the testcontrol server to finish handling any associated /machine/map
requests.

Fixes #19831
