This PR restructures the integration tests and prebuilds all common assets used in all tests:
Headscale and Tailscale HEAD image
hi binary that is used to run tests
go cache is warmed up for compilation of the test
This essentially means we spend 6-10 minutes building assets before any tests starts, when that is done, all tests can just sprint through.
It looks like we are saving 3-9 minutes per test, and since we are limited to running max 20 concurrent tests across the repo, that means we had a lot of double work.
There is currently 113 checks, so we have to do five runs of 20, and the saving should be quite noticeable! I think the "worst case" saving would be 20+min and "best case" probably towards an hour.
This PR investigates, adds tests and aims to correctly implement Tailscale's model for how Tags should be accepted, assigned and used to identify nodes in the Tailscale access and ownership model.
When evaluating in Headscale's policy, Tags are now only checked against a nodes "tags" list, which defines the source of truth for all tags for a given node. This simplifies the code for dealing with tags greatly, and should help us have less access bugs related to nodes belonging to tags or users.
A node can either be owned by a user, or a tag.
Next, to ensure the tags list on the node is correctly implemented, we first add tests for every registration scenario and combination of user, pre auth key and pre auth key with tags with the same registration expectation as observed by trying them all with the Tailscale control server. This should ensure that we implement the correct behaviour and that it does not change or break over time.
Lastly, the missing parts of the auth has been added, or changed in the cases where it was wrong. This has in large parts allowed us to delete and simplify a lot of code.
Now, tags can only be changed when a node authenticates or if set via the CLI/API. Tags can only be fully overwritten/replaced and any use of either auth or CLI will replace the current set if different.
A user owned device can be converted to a tagged device, but it cannot be changed back. A tagged device can never remove the last tag either, it has to have a minimum of one.
This PR addresses some consistency issues that was introduced or discovered with the nodestore.
nodestore:
Now returns the node that is being put or updated when it is finished. This closes a race condition where when we read it back, we do not necessarily get the node with the given change and it ensures we get all the other updates from that batch write.
auth:
Authentication paths have been unified and simplified. It removes a lot of bad branches and ensures we only do the minimal work.
A comprehensive auth test set has been created so we do not have to run integration tests to validate auth and it has allowed us to generate test cases for all the branches we currently know of.
integration:
added a lot more tooling and checks to validate that nodes reach the expected state when they come up and down. Standardised between the different auth models. A lot of this is to support or detect issues in the changes to nodestore (races) and auth (inconsistencies after login and reaching correct state)
This PR was assisted, particularly tests, by claude code.
- Fix directory hierarchy flattening by using full paths instead of filepath.Base()
- Remove redundant container hostname prefixes from directory names
- Strip top-level directory from tar extraction to avoid nested structure
- Ensure parent directories exist before creating files
- Results in clean structure: control_logs/mapresponses/1-ts-client/file.json
Tailscale allows to override the local DNS settings of a node via
"Override local DNS" [1]. Restore this flag with the same config setting
name `dns.override_local_dns` but disable it by default to align it with
Tailscale's default behaviour.
Tested with Tailscale 1.80.2 and systemd-resolved on Debian 12.

* fix issue auto approve route on register bug
This commit fixes an issue where routes where not approved
on a node during registration. This cause the auto approval
to require the node to readvertise the routes.

* split policy -> policy and v1
This commit split out the common policy logic and policy implementation
into separate packages.
policy contains functions that are independent of the policy implementation,
this typically means logic that works on tailcfg types and generic formats.
In addition, it defines the PolicyManager interface which the v1 implements.
v1 is a subpackage which implements the PolicyManager using the "original"
policy implementation.

* Fix KeyExpiration when a zero time value has a timezone
When a zero time value is loaded from JSON or a DB in a way that
assigns it the local timezone, it does not roudtrip in JSON as a
value for which IsZero returns true. This causes KeyExpiry to be
treated as a far past value instead of a nilish value.

* validate policy against nodes, error if not valid
this commit aims to improve the feedback of "runtime" policy
errors which would only manifest when the rules are compiled to
filter rules with nodes.
this change will in;
file-based mode load the nodes from the db and try to compile the rules on
start up and return an error if they would not work as intended.
database-based mode prevent a new ACL being written to the database if
it does not compile with the current set of node.

This PR removes the complicated session management introduced in https://github.com/juanfont/headscale/pull/1791 which kept track of the sessions in a map, in addition to the channel already kept track of in the notifier.
Instead of trying to close the mapsession, it will now be replaced by the new one and closed after so all new updates goes to the right place.
The map session serve function is also split into a streaming and a non-streaming version for better readability.
RemoveNode in the notifier will not remove a node if the channel is not matching the one that has been passed (e.g. it has been replaced with a new one).
A new tuning parameter has been added to added to set timeout before the notifier gives up to send an update to a node.
Add a keep alive resetter so we wait with sending keep alives if a node has just received an update.
In addition it adds a bunch of env debug flags that can be set:
- `HEADSCALE_DEBUG_HIGH_CARDINALITY_METRICS`: make certain metrics include per node.id, not recommended to use in prod.
- `HEADSCALE_DEBUG_PROFILING_ENABLED`: activate tracing
- `HEADSCALE_DEBUG_PROFILING_PATH`: where to store traces
- `HEADSCALE_DEBUG_DUMP_CONFIG`: calls `spew.Dump` on the config object startup
- `HEADSCALE_DEBUG_DEADLOCK`: enable go-deadlock to dump goroutines if it looks like a deadlock has occured, enabled in integration tests.
