Brad Fitzpatrick 3d07b5d6e1 wgengine,cmd/tailscaled,feature/bird: move BIRD integration to ./feature
The BIRD (BGP) integration previously lived half in cmd/tailscaled
(which created a chirp client via a build-tag-gated file on some
platforms) and half in wgengine (which carried the client in its
Config and toggled the "tailscale" protocol as the node gained or
lost primary subnet router duty).

Move it all to a new feature/bird package, installed on the engine
via the new wgengine.HookNewBird hook, like other feature/* packages.
wgengine.Config.BIRDClient (and the wgengine.BIRDClient interface)
are replaced by a BIRDSocket path from which the engine constructs
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.

Updates #12614

Private WireGuard® networks made easy

Overview

This repository contains the majority of Tailscale's open source code. Notably, it includes the tailscaled daemon and the tailscale CLI tool. The tailscaled daemon runs on Linux, Windows, macOS, and to varying degrees on FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The Tailscale iOS and Android apps use this repo's code, but this repo doesn't contain the mobile GUI code.

Other Tailscale repos of note:

For background on which parts of Tailscale are open source and why, see https://tailscale.com/opensource/.

Using

We serve packages for a variety of distros and platforms at https://pkgs.tailscale.com.

Other clients

The macOS, iOS, and Windows clients use the code in this repository but additionally include small GUI wrappers. The GUI wrappers on non-open source platforms are themselves not open source.

Building

We always require the latest Go release, currently Go 1.26. (While we build releases with our Go fork, its use is not required.)

go install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}

If you're packaging Tailscale for distribution, use build_dist.sh instead, to burn commit IDs and version info into the binaries:

./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale
./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscaled

If your distro has conventions that preclude the use of build_dist.sh, please do the equivalent of what it does in your distro's way, so that bug reports contain useful version information.

Bugs

Please file any issues about this code or the hosted service on the issue tracker.

Contributing

PRs welcome! But please file bugs. Commit messages should reference bugs.

We require Developer Certificate of Origin Signed-off-by lines in commits.

See commit-messages.md (or skim git log) for our commit message style.
