In Dec 2021 in d3d503d997 I had grand plans to make exit node DNS
cheaper by using HTTP/2 over PeerAPI, at least on some platforms. I
only did server-side support though and never made it to the client.
In the ~4 years since, some things have happened:
* Go 1.24 got support for http.Protocols (https://pkg.go.dev/net/http#Protocols)
and doing UnencryptedHTTP2 ("HTTP2 with prior knowledge")
* The old h2c upgrade mechanism was deprecated; see https://github.com/golang/go/issues/63565
and https://github.com/golang/go/issues/67816
* Go plans to deprecate x/net/http2 and move everything to the standard library.
So this drops our use of the x/net/http2/h2c package and instead
enables h2c (on all platforms now) using the standard library.
This does mean we lose the deprecated h2c Upgrade support, but that's
fine.
If/when we do the h2c client support for ExitDNS, we'll have to probe
the peer to see whether it supports it. Or have it reply with a header
saying that future requests can us h2c. (It's tempting to use capver,
but maybe people will disable that support anyway, so we should
discover it at runtime instead.)
Also do the same in the sessionrecording package.

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 1.25. (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.
