This does three things:
* If you're on GCP, it adds a *.internal DNS split route to the
metadata server, so we never break GCP DNS names. This lets people
have some Tailscale nodes on GCP and some not (e.g. laptops at home)
without having to add a Tailnet-wide *.internal DNS route.
If you already have such a route, though, it won't overwrite it.
* If the 100.100.100.100 DNS forwarder has nowhere to forward to,
it forwards it to the GCP metadata IP, which forwards to 8.8.8.8.
This means there are never errNoUpstreams ("upstream nameservers not set")
errors on GCP due to e.g. mangled /etc/resolv.conf (GCP default VMs
don't have systemd-resolved, so it's likely a DNS supremacy fight)
* makes the DNS fallback mechanism use the GCP metadata IP as a
fallback before our hosted HTTP-based fallbacks
I created a default GCP VM from their web wizard. It has no
systemd-resolved.
I then made its /etc/resolv.conf be empty and deleted its GCP
hostnames in /etc/hosts.
I then logged in to a tailnet with no global DNS settings.
With this, tailscaled writes /etc/resolv.conf (direct mode, as no
systemd-resolved) and sets it to 100.100.100.100, which then has
regular DNS via the metadata IP and *.internal DNS via the metadata IP
as well. If the tailnet configures explicit DNS servers, those are used
instead, except for *.internal.
This also adds a new util/cloudenv package based on version/distro
where the cloud type is only detected once. We'll likely expand it in
the future for other clouds, doing variants of this change for other
popular cloud environments.

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 on Linux, Windows and macOS, and to varying degrees on FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Darwin. (The Tailscale iOS and Android apps use this repo's code, but this repo doesn't contain the mobile GUI code.)
The Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android
The Synology package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-synology
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 1.18) 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.
