Tom Meadows 87b3d7b7e5 ipn/localapi,client/local: honour Retry-After on cert rate-limit (#20315)
* ipn/localapi,ipnlocal,feature/acme,client/local: honour Retry-After on cert rate-limit

serveCert now responds with 429 + Retry-After when the underlying ACME
error is a rate limit, instead of a generic 500. client/local surfaces
this as a typed RateLimitedError with the parsed hint so callers can
back off intelligently.

Updates tailscale/corp#42164

* tsweb,feature/acme,ipn/localapi,ipnlocal: generalise cert error → HTTP mapping via tsweb.HTTPStatuser

Introduces a tsweb.HTTPStatuser interface, any error can implement
to describe its intended HTTP response (code, message, headers).
Moves CertRateLimitedError from ipnlocal to feature/acme where it's
constructed, and it now uses HTTPStatuser to return 429 + Retry-After.

serveCert now checks for tsweb.HTTPStatuser rather than the specific
error type, so it no longer needs to know about the ACME rate-limit
type.

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.
