A public key should only have max one connection to a given
DERP node (or really: one connection to a node in a region).
But if people clone their machine keys (e.g. clone their VM, Raspbery
Pi SD card, etc), then we can get into a situation where a public key
is connected multiple times.
Originally, the DERP server handled this by just kicking out a prior
connections whenever a new one came. But this led to reconnect fights
where 2+ nodes were in hard loops trying to reconnect and kicking out
their peer.
Then a909d37a59
tried to add rate
limiting to how often that dup-kicking can happen, but empirically it
just doesn't work and ~leaks a bunch of goroutines and TCP
connections, tying them up for hour+ while more and more accumulate
and waste memory. Mostly because we were doing a time.Sleep forever
while not reading from their TCP connections.
Instead, just accept multiple connections per public key but track
which is the most recent. And if two both are writing back & forth,
then optionally disable them both. That last part is only enabled in
tests for now. The current default policy is just last-sender-wins
while we gather the next round of stats.

Tailscale
Private WireGuard® networks made easy
Overview
This repository contains all the open source Tailscale client code and
the tailscaled
daemon and tailscale
CLI tool. The tailscaled
daemon runs primarily on Linux; it also works to varying degrees on
FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Darwin, and Windows.
The Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android
Using
We serve packages for a variety of distros 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 that are not open source.
Building
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.
We only guarantee to support the latest Go release and any Go beta or release candidate builds (currently Go 1.16) in module mode. It might work in earlier Go versions or in GOPATH mode, but we're making no effort to keep those working.
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.
