This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in
the history of Tailscale's open source releases.
A Brief History of AUTHORS files
---
The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for
Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem
was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing
Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source
projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each
contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors
then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE
file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a
tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the
license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact.
The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the
copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then
include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The
Chromium Authors".
This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a
high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the
copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the
contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way
for the proejct maintainer to know.
Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to
keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to
it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors.
They are also clear that:
> Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the
> project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership.
It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors
that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was
entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even
the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright
holders.
In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists
Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes
confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header
in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so
it's ambiguous what that means.
Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever
they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We
also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which
provides some additional certification of their right to make the
contribution.
The source file changes were purely mechanical with:
git ls-files | xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g'

Primarily this comes from not linking in the zstd encoding code.

The goal is to move more network state accessors to netmon.Monitor
where they can be cheaper/cached. But first (this change and others)
we need to make sure the one netmon.Monitor is plumbed everywhere.
Some notable bits:
* tsdial.NewDialer is added, taking a now-required netmon
* because a tsdial.Dialer always has a netmon, anything taking both
a Dialer and a NetMon is now redundant; take only the Dialer and
get the NetMon from that if/when needed.
* netmon.NewStatic is added, primarily for tests

Use the zstdframe package where sensible instead of plumbing
around our own zstd.Encoder just for stateless operations.
This causes logtail to have a dependency on zstd,
but that's arguably okay since zstd support is implicit
to the protocol between a client and the logging service.
Also, virtually every caller to logger.NewLogger was
manually setting up a zstd.Encoder anyways,
meaning that zstd was functionally always a dependency.

On some platforms (notably macOS and iOS) we look up the default
interface to bind outgoing connections to. This is both duplicated
work and results in logspam when the default interface is not available
(i.e. when a phone has no connectivity, we log an error and thus cause
more things that we will try to upload and fail).
Fixed by passing around a netmon.Monitor to more places, so that we can
use its cached interface state.

This change focuses on the backend log ID, which is the mostly commonly
used in the client. Tests which don't seem to make use of the log ID
just use the zero value.

Switch to using logtail for logging sockstat logs. Always log locally
(on supported platforms), but disable automatic uploading. Change
existing c2n sockstats request to trigger upload to log server and
return log ID.

They're not needed for the sockstats logger, and they're somewhat
expensive to return (since they involve the creation of a map per
label). We now have a separate GetInterfaces() method that returns
them instead (which we can still use in the PeerAPI debug endpoint).
If changing sockstatlog to sample at 10,000 Hz (instead of the default
of 10Hz), the CPU usage would go up to 59% on a iPhone XS. Removing the
per-interface stats drops it to 20% (a no-op implementation of Get that
returns a fixed value is 16%).

This updates all source files to use a new standard header for copyright

and we now use the standard SPDX-License-Identifier header.
This commit was done almost entirely mechanically with perl, and then

The //go:build syntax was introduced in Go 1.17:

gofmt has kept the +build and go:build lines in sync since
then, but enough time has passed. Time to remove them.
Done with:

At some point since filelogger was added on Windows, the log hierarchy
above it changed such that a log.Printf writes to filelogger and includes
the log package's own date. But then filelogger adds another.
Rather than debug everything above and risk removing the prefix when
run by tailscaled, instead just remove the log package's prefix
very late right before we go to add the filelogger's own.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\
is frequently cleared for almost any reason: Windows updates,
System Restore, even various System Cleaner utilities.
The server-state.conf file in AppData\Local could be deleted
at any time, which would break login until the node is removed
from the Admin Panel allowing it to create a new key.
Carefully copy any AppData state to ProgramData at startup.
If copying the state fails, continue to use AppData so at
least there will be connectivity. If there is no state,
use ProgramData.
We also migrate the log.conf file. Very old versions of
Tailscale named the EXE tailscale-ipn, so the log conf was
tailscale-ipn.log.conf and more recent versions preserved
this filename and cmdName in logs. In this migration we
always update the filename to
c:\ProgramData\Tailscale\tailscaled.log.conf

Updates #726
LogHeap no longer logs to os.Stderr and instead uploads
the heap profile by means of an HTTP POST request to the
target URL endpoint.
While here, also ensured that an error from pprof.WriteHeapProfile
isn't ignored and will prevent the HTTP request from being made
if non-nil.
