Brad Fitzpatrick 5d5607fea2 ipn/ipnlocal: use more buildfeatures consts so the linker drops dead code
Several features with ts_omit build tags were still linked into
minimal builds because LocalBackend called into them unconditionally,
so the linker couldn't prove them unreachable. Guard those call sites
with their buildfeatures constants:

  * app connectors: only subscribe to route update and store events
    when app connectors are included; appc is their only publisher.
    This also drops AdvertiseRoute and UnadvertiseRoute.
  * client update: only subscribe to the tailnet default auto-update
    event when auto-updates are supported, as that's all it affects.
  * syspolicy: only register the policy change watch when system
    policy support is included.
  * advertise routes and exit nodes: only validate AdvertiseRoutes
    when one of the two features is included.
  * netstack: only netstack consults the intercepted TCP ports, so
    don't build the port matching func without it.
  * ssh: don't check SSH prefs, report the "SSH on but unusable"
    health message, or intercept port 22 without SSH support. The
    RunSSH pref is still accepted without effect, as before; port 22
    was previously intercepted by netstack builds without SSH.
  * web client: don't track whether the web client should run when
    it's not included.
  * tailnet lock: peers marked UnsignedPeerAPIOnly are only special
    in that tailnet lock skips their signature checks, and the packet
    filter check guards that exemption. Without tailnet lock, all
    peers from control are trusted anyway, so skip the check.

This reduces the size of a build_dist.sh --min tailscaled binary on
linux/amd64 by 65,536 bytes (0.5%), about 28 KB of it in ipnlocal and
most of the rest in eventbus and slices generic instantiations for the
events no longer subscribed to.

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 1.27. (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.
