This commit implements TCP GSO for packets being read from gVisor on
Linux. Windows support will follow later. The wireguard-go dependency is
updated in order to make use of newly exported GSO logic from its tun
package.
A new gVisor stack.LinkEndpoint implementation has been established
(linkEndpoint) that is loosely modeled after its predecessor
(channel.Endpoint). This new implementation supports GSO of monster TCP
segments up to 64K in size, whereas channel.Endpoint only supports up to
32K. linkEndpoint will also be required for GRO, which will be
implemented in a follow-on commit.
TCP throughput from gVisor, i.e. TUN read direction, is dramatically
improved as a result of this commit. Benchmarks show substantial
improvement through a wide range of RTT and loss conditions, sometimes
as high as 5x.
The iperf3 results below demonstrate the effect of this commit between
two Linux computers with i5-12400 CPUs. There is roughly ~13us of round
trip latency between them.
The first result is from commit 57856fc without TCP GSO.

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 1.22. (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.
