Brad Fitzpatrick bcd79b161a feature/featuretags: add option to turn off DNS
Saves 328 KB (2.5%) off the minimal binary.

For IoT devices that don't need MagicDNS (e.g. they don't make
outbound connections), this provides a knob to disable all the DNS
functionality.

Rather than a massive refactor today, this uses constant false values
as a deadcode sledgehammer, guided by shotizam to find the largest DNS
functions which survived deadcode.

A future refactor could make it so that the net/dns/resolver and
publicdns packages don't even show up in the import graph (along with
their imports) but really it's already pretty good looking with just
these consts, so it's not at the top of my list to refactor it more
soon.

Also do the same in a few places with the ACME (cert) functionality,
as I saw those while searching for DNS stuff.

Updates #12614

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:

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.

See commit-messages.md (or skim git log) for our commit message style.
