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'

This updates all source files to use a new standard header for copyright
and license declaration. Notably, copyright no longer includes a date,
and we now use the standard SPDX-License-Identifier header.
This commit was done almost entirely mechanically with perl, and then
some minimal manual fixes.

This is temporary while we work to upstream performance work in
https://github.com/WireGuard/wireguard-go/pull/64. A replace directive
is less ideal as it breaks dependent code without duplication of the
directive.

In rare circumstances (tailscale/corp#3016), the PublicKey
and Endpoints can diverge.
This by itself doesn't cause any harm, but our early exit
in response did, because it prevented us from recovering from it.
Remove the early exit.

In DeviceConfig, we did not close r after calling FromUAPI.
If FromUAPI returned early due to an error, then it might
not have read all the data that IpcGetOperation wanted to write.
As a result, IpcGetOperation could hang, as in #3220.
We were also closing the wrong end of the pipe after IpcSetOperation
in ReconfigDevice.
To ensure that we get all available information to diagnose
such a situation, include all errors anytime something goes wrong.
This should fix the immediate crashing problem in #3220.
We'll then need to figure out why IpcGetOperation was failing.

Pull in the latest version of wireguard-windows.
Switch to upstream wireguard-go.
This requires reverting all of our import paths.
Unfortunately, this has to happen at the same time.
The wireguard-go change is very low risk,
as that commit matches our fork almost exactly.
(The only changes are import paths, CI files, and a go.mod entry.)
So if there are issues as a result of this commit,
the first place to look is wireguard-windows changes.

Prefer the error from the actual wireguard-go device method call,
not {To,From}UAPI, as those tend to be less interesting I/O errors.

When wireguard-go's UAPI interface fails with an error, ReconfigDevice hangs.
Fix that by buffering the channel and closing the writer after the call.
The code now matches the corresponding code in DeviceConfig, where I got it right.

This is mostly code movement from the wireguard-go repo.
Most of the new wgcfg package corresponds to the wireguard-go wgcfg package.
wgengine/wgcfg/device{_test}.go was device/config{_test}.go.
There were substantive but simple changes to device_test.go to remove
internal package device references.
The API of device.Config (now wgcfg.DeviceConfig) grew an error return;
we previously logged the error and threw it away.
