While the previous logic was correct, it did not perform well. Resuming is a dance between the client and server, where 1. the client requests hashes for a partial file, 2. the server then computes those hashes, 3. the client computes hashes locally and compares them. 4. goto 1 while the partial file still has data While step 2 is running, the client is sitting idle. While step 3 is running, the server is sitting idle. By streaming over the block hash immediately after the server computes it, the client can start checking the hash, while the server works on the next hash (in a pipelined manner). This performs dramatically better and also uses less memory as we don't need to hold a list of hashes, but only need to handle one hash at a time. There are two detriments to this approach: * The HTTP API relies on a JSON stream, which is not a standard REST-like pattern. However, since we implement both client and server, this is fine. * While the stream is on-going, we hold an open file handle on the server side while the file is being hashed. On really slow streams, this could hold a file open forever. Updates tailscale/corp#14772 Signed-off-by: Joe Tsai <joetsai@digital-static.net> Co-authored-by: Rhea Ghosh <rhea@tailscale.com>
Tailscale
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:
- the Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android
- the Synology package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-synology
- the QNAP package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg
- the Chocolatey packaging is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-chocolatey
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 1.21. (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 git log for our commit message style. It's basically the same as
Go's style.
