Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick c0c453334a ipn/ipnlocal: evict stale node indexes when a delta upsert replaces a peer
When a node is renamed in the admin console, control sends peers a
single MapResponse delta: a PeersChanged entry carrying the full
updated node with its new Name, and no new DNSConfig (MagicDNS
records are computed client-side from peer names). That arrives as a
NodeMutationUpsert, but nodeBackend's upsert path only added the new
node's index entries and never removed the replaced node's, so
nodeByName retained the old name, and nodeByAddr, nodeByKey, and
nodeByStableID could likewise go stale if those fields changed.

Since 7e609b258 the quad-100 resolver serves MagicDNS answers on
demand from those live indexes, so a renamed peer's old name kept
resolving until something rebuilt the indexes from a full netmap,
such as toggling Tailscale off and on.

Evict the replaced node's index entries before adding the new ones.
Also consolidate the natlab DNS coverage into a single TestMagicDNS
that boots one VM and exercises extra records, search domains, and
peer add/rename/remove end to end, injecting the same MapResponse
shapes that production control sends.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 420a8e5a1a drive/driveimpl: handle Unicode normalization mismatches in filenames
Files whose names contain characters with Unicode decompositions (such
as umlauts or voiced kana) could not be opened or written over
Taildrive.

Background: keyboards and IMEs emit NFC (precomposed) characters on
every platform, so filenames on Linux (ext4 etc) and Windows (NTFS)
disks are usually NFC bytes. NFD (decomposed) names mostly come from
Apple software: HFS+ forced a variant of NFD on write, and Apple's
frameworks still decompose paths via fileSystemRepresentation. APFS
preserves whatever bytes it is given but does normalization-insensitive
lookups (it stores a hash of the normalized name), so canonically
equivalent names find the same file. ext4 and NTFS lookups, by
contrast, are byte-exact.

On the wire, the macOS WebDAV client sends paths in NFD form (they
pass through the decomposing file system representation, and unlike
Apple's NFS client there is no "nfc" mount option). Windows and Linux
WebDAV clients pass names through as the application provided them,
typically NFC. WebDAV itself mandates no normalization, and PROPFIND
hrefs reflect the server's on-disk bytes.

The two forms are canonically equivalent but byte-wise different, so a
macOS client requesting the NFD form of an NFC-named file on a Linux
or Windows host got a 404 from the exact-byte lookup. Even against an
APFS host, where the filesystem absorbs the mismatch, the client-side
StatCache could still infer a 404: a cached directory listing in one
form caused depth 0 PROPFINDs in the other form to be treated as not
found without ever reaching the server. The inverse direction (NFD
bytes on a Linux disk, copied there from a Mac, requested in NFC form
by a Windows or Linux client) was broken too.

Alternative regimes considered: normalizing names at storage time (as
Nextcloud and Syncthing's autoNormalize do) would rename user files in
shared directories as a side effect of serving them; normalizing
request paths to a fixed form on the wire is unsound because the
on-disk form is unknowable a priori (ext4 can hold either form, or
both). Instead, adopt the APFS model: preserve bytes, but make lookups
normalization-insensitive.

Concretely, wrap the remote file server's webdav.Dir in a
normalizingFS that, when an exact path lookup fails, rescans the
parent directory for an entry whose name is canonically equivalent,
comparing the NFC form of both sides (which also sidesteps Apple's
nonstandard decomposition tables). Exact matches always win, and newly
created files keep the exact bytes the client sent. Also NFC-normalize
StatCache keys so canonically equivalent names share a cache entry.

The change is covered at three levels: unit tests for the StatCache,
an in-process two-node test in drive/driveimpl, and a new TestTaildrive
VM integration test in tstest/natlab/vmtest that shares a directory
between two Ubuntu VMs and exercises the NFC/NFD cases over the real
stack with curl playing the part of a macOS WebDAV client.

Brendan CreaneandGitHub a7cb5745a2 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add Fedora + DNS-backend coverage, harden non-KVM boot (#20409)
* tstest/natlab/vmtest: make cloud VM boot robust without KVM

Adding heavier distro images (Fedora) surfaced several ways the cloud VM
boot path breaks under TCG software emulation (no /dev/kvm), especially
with multiple concurrent VMs on few cores.

- Add a virtio-rng device to the cloud path so early boot doesn't block in
  getrandom() waiting for the CRNG to seed.
- When no hardware acceleration is available, relax the stuck-console
  watchdog (tuned for KVM's ~1-2s first output) and serialize VM boots so a
  heavy guest doesn't starve its siblings' emulation threads.
- Bound the bring-up context to the test deadline and dump each VM's console
  on failure, so a hang surfaces as a diagnosable Fatalf instead of an
  opaque `go test -timeout` panic (which skips cleanups).

* tstest/natlab/vmtest: add Fedora and DNS-backend test coverage

Add the first RHEL-family distro and the machinery to assert and provision
distinct DNS backends, so adding a distro isn't "basically equivalent" to
the others.

- Add a Fedora 43 image (NetworkManager + systemd-resolved, SELinux
  enforcing). restorecon-relabel the curl'd binaries so they exec under
  enforcing mode.
- Add DNSBackend/AssertDNSBackend, reading the dns_manager_linux_mode_*
  clientmetric to assert which backend tailscaled selected.
- Add a WithDNSMode node option. WithDNSMode(DNSDirect) masks
  systemd-resolved and writes a plain resolv.conf pointing at natlab's fake
  DNS, forcing the direct backend -- so one image covers multiple backends.

The "vm" CI job ran a single test (TestRunUbuntu2404 from
tstest/integration/vms) on a privileged self-hosted runner. Its coverage
is nearly all redundant with the modern natlab vmtest suite, which boots
real Ubuntu VMs and already exercises connectivity, kernel TUN, SSH,
Taildrop, ACME, and OS DNS integration on GitHub-hosted runners.

The two things it tested that natlab didn't are added back as natlab
tests so the runner can be decommissioned:

TestUbuntuSystemdUnit runs tailscaled via the stock systemd unit that
Linux packages ship (cmd/tailscaled/tailscaled.service with
tailscaled.defaults as its EnvironmentFile) instead of launching the
binary directly, verifying the unit's directives and its Type=notify
readiness handshake.

TestDNSExtraRecordsSearchDomains verifies that control-plane DNS
ExtraRecords and search domains are resolvable through the guest's OS
resolver (libc to systemd-resolved to quad-100).

The tailscale/gokrazy-kernel module was a fork of rtr7/kernel that
stalled at Linux 6.8.9 (July 2024). All of the kernel config options we
had added in that fork (ENA, Xen for EC2, virtio-mmio for qemu microvm,
virtio RNG, IPv6 policy routing, netlink diag, etc) are now present in
the gokrazy project's own gokrazy/kernel.amd64 module, which tracks
current kernel.org releases (Linux 7.1.3 as of this change) and is the
gokrazy project's supported kernel for x86_64 PCs and VMs.

Switch the tsapp and natlabapp images, the natlab VM tests, and the
CI workflow to gokrazy/kernel.amd64, drop the tailscale/gokrazy-kernel
dependency, and update gokrazy/kernel.arm64 to latest while here.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 9d01b036c7 tstest/natlab/vmtest: test jailed and masqueraded peers end-to-end
The tun-layer per-peer data plane (jailed packet filter selection and
masquerade NAT rewrites) had no end-to-end coverage: nothing asserted
that a peer the control server marks jailed actually has its flows
dropped, or that masquerade addresses assigned by control actually
carry rewritten traffic in both directions.

Add a two-gokrazy-node natlab test driving both knobs from the test
control server and probing with HTTP requests between the nodes'
webservers after each netmap transition, asserting each response
carries the serving node's greeting so masqueraded flows provably
reach the intended node. TSMP pings are deliberately not used as
probes: tstun answers those before running the packet filter, so
they succeed even for jailed peers.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick c436dec43c tstest, cmd/tta: add Tailscale SSH end-to-end VM test
Add TestTailscaleSSH to tstest/natlab/vmtest, exercising the Tailscale
SSH server (tailscale up --ssh, not a system sshd) end to end: an
Ubuntu client node SSHes over the tailnet into an Ubuntu server node
as both root and a non-root user, and into a gokrazy node.

The gokrazy sessions exercise the gokrazy special cases in the SSH
code: util/osuser hard-codes the login shell to serial-busybox ash and
synthesizes a root user when lookup fails (so any username works and
becomes root, unlike Ubuntu where nonexistent users are rejected), and
the incubator's findSU refuses su on gokrazy, handling sessions
in-process.

To support this, testcontrol gains an SSHPolicy field that's sent in
MapResponses along with the CapabilitySSH node capability, tta's /up
handler accepts an ssh=true parameter, and vmtest gains a
TailscaleSSH node option that wires the two together with a
permissive any-principal policy.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 125fd88c30 tstest/natlab: fix vnet TCP throughput collapse to slow guests
FreeBSD guests downloaded their test binaries from vnet's
files.tailscale VIP at roughly 250 kB/s in CI, and transfers sometimes
wedged outright for many minutes, which is why TestSubnetRouterFreeBSD
timed out in about a third of its runs. Locally the same path moves
data at 100+ MB/s, so the problem was never CPU; it was TCP behavior
under two independent constraints, both diagnosed with a new
throughput harness (TestVnetPerfFreeBSDDownload), a VNET_TCP_DEBUG
endpoint sampler, and pcaps:

First, throughput is capped at receive-window/RTT. FreeBSD starts its
receive window at 64 kB and autoscales it in slow 16 kB steps, and on
an oversubscribed CI runner the effective RTT of the userspace vnet
data path reaches hundreds of milliseconds, giving almost exactly the
observed 250 kB/s. Fix: raise the FreeBSD guest's TCP buffer sysctls
in cloud-init before the downloads, and raise netstack's receive
buffer sizing for the reverse (upload) direction.

Second, the outright wedge: when netstack bursts more data than the
QEMU socket plus the guest's virtio RX ring can absorb, a wide swath
of segments is dropped downstream of vnet, and netstack's loss
recovery then crawls, retransmitting one or two segments per 200 ms
RTO for minutes at a time (a 33 MB transfer was observed taking 526
seconds against an otherwise idle receiver). Rather than depending on
recovery from mass loss, make the path effectively lossless by keeping
the maximum in-flight data (the 1 MB netstack send buffer) below the
downstream buffering: grow the guests' virtio RX rings from 256 to
1024 descriptors, enlarge the vnet-QEMU unix socket buffers, and grow
the netstack link endpoint queue from 512 to 4096 packets so a send
burst can't overflow it.

Also fixed along the way, found while chasing the above:

  * pcapWriter fsync'd after every packet, serializing all traffic
    behind disk writes when a test enables pcap; a pcap-enabled run
    was capped at about 290 kB/s. Keep the per-packet Flush but drop
    the per-packet fsync.
  * Traffic originating from vnet's own netstack (control plane,
    DERP, file servers) bypassed conditionedWrite, so SetLatency and
    SetPacketLoss silently didn't apply to it.
  * writeEthernetFrameToVM held one global mutex (and a shared
    scratch buffer) across writes to all VMs, so one guest slow to
    drain its socket stalled traffic to every VM on the server. The
    write lock is now per-VM-connection.

TestSubnetRouterFreeBSD now passes locally in 31s (down from 4.5
minutes), still passes with the vnet simulating a 100 ms RTT
(downloads at 2-8 MB/s, previously 250-600 kB/s), and passes in 65s
with KVM disabled while pinned to two host CPUs, a harsher environment
than the CI runners. The benchmark test is opt-in via
--run-perf-tests (in addition to --run-vm-tests) so CI doesn't spend
a matrix job re-measuring it on every run. VMTEST_NO_KVM=1
forces TCG for reproducing slow-host behavior.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 66af25733c tstest/natlab/vmtest, client/web: add web client integration tests
Adds two Gokrazy-based vmtests covering the tailscaled web client at
port 5252:

* TestWebClientLocalAccess enables the web client on a single node
  and exercises the canonical owner session flow against the node's
  own Tailscale IP: an unauthenticated GET /api/auth that identifies
  the caller, a GET /api/auth/session/new that issues a
  TS-Web-Session cookie, and a final GET /api/auth that reports
  authorized=true with the cookie.

* TestWebClientRemoteAccess runs the same session flow from a peer
  node on the same tailnet against a second target node's web
  client, exercising netstack interception of incoming :5252
  traffic, cross-node WhoIs, and the same-user "owner" path. It
  then flips the test control server's AllNodesSameUser off,
  re-logs in the client under a fresh identity, and asserts that
  GET /api/auth/session/new returns 401 with body "not-owner" --
  exercising the cross-user rejection in client/web/auth.go.

To make the natlab test environment exercise the same code path
as production (check mode, where the web client posts to
/machine/webclient/init via Noise and waits on a control-issued
auth URL), this also:

* Allowlists the natlab fake control hostname "control.tailscale"
  in client/web/auth.go's controlSupportsCheckMode so the web
  client follows the check-mode branch rather than the
  no-check-mode shortcut that immediately marks new sessions
  authenticated.

* Adds /machine/webclient/{init,wait} handlers to testcontrol.
  init returns a placeholder auth ID and URL; wait returns
  Complete=true immediately, so the web client's awaitUserAuth
  resolves on its first call. Together these let the tests drive
  the full check-mode session lifecycle without a real
  browser-click loop.

To support the multi-request HTTP flows from the test harness,
this also adds:

* vmtest.Env.HTTPGetStatus, a sister of HTTPGet that returns the
  upstream status code, body, and Set-Cookie cookies (as a
  vmtest.HTTPResponse) and accepts cookies on the outgoing
  request, so tests can drive flows that depend on cookie
  continuity.

* Cookie pass-through in cmd/tta's /http-get handler: it forwards
  the Cookie request header upstream and surfaces upstream
  Set-Cookie response headers downstream. This is what lets
  HTTPGetStatus carry a session cookie across requests.

Previously the only tests of the web client were in-process
httptest-based handler tests in client/web/web_test.go; nothing
exercised the actual port 5252 listener wiring, the cross-node
auth path, cookie-driven session state transitions through the
check-mode control round-trip, or the not-owner rejection end
to end.

  Invalid name validation scheme requested: unset

so the long-standing "var parser expfmt.TextParser" pattern
crashes at runtime. Several big downstreams have hit the same
sharp edge:

  https://github.com/thanos-io/thanos/issues/8823
  https://github.com/grafana/loki/pull/21401

Switch our two callers (parseMetrics in tsnet's
TestUserMetricsByteCounters and the client-metrics scraper in
tstest/natlab/vmtest) to the new expfmt.NewTextParser
constructor with model.LegacyValidation. LegacyValidation
matches the classic ASCII metric/label naming rules that
tailscaled's exporter uses today; if and when we ever emit a
metric with a UTF-8 name, we can revisit.

Goes to v0.69.0 (the latest at the time of writing) rather
than v0.67.5 so we pick up the unrelated security fixes for
cross-host redirects.

Done in advance so a follow-up change can pull in
github.com/tailscale/policybottest (which depends on
palantir/policy-bot, which transitively requires
prometheus/common at v0.67+) without dragging this debugging
into that PR.

Add a retry loop with BatchMode=yes to absorb the race window
between Env.Start() returning (when tta reports the tailscale

setup. In CI, the second VM's tta agent has been observed
connecting only a few hundred milliseconds before the test SSHes
in, which is inside the window where /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
hasn't fully landed yet. SSH key auth then fails and ssh(1) falls
back to interactive password prompts (3x), wasting time and
producing a confusing "Permission denied (publickey,password)"
error.

BatchMode=yes makes the client fail fast on auth failure instead
of prompting, and the retry loop handles SSH transport-level
errors (exit code 255) for up to 30 seconds with 500ms backoff.
Remote command non-zero exits still pass through unchanged.

Both tests started flaking after my 910735448 ("tstest/natlab/vnet:
send unsolicited IPv6 Router Advertisements") added background RA
traffic on v6-enabled networks.

TestPacketSideEffects races the periodic unsolicited-RA goroutine
against its synchronous packet-count assertions: when the multicast
RA fires after the test has registered its sinks, both sinks receive
it and "got 1 packet, want N" becomes "got N+2".

TestProtocolQEMU's reader was doing raw Read on the SOCK_STREAM unix
socket and comparing the whole result to the expected length-prefixed
packet. The kernel is free to coalesce the on-register RA frame and
the test packet into one Read, in which case bytes.Equal fails and
the entire chunk (including the test packet's bytes) gets discarded
as "unexpected", leading to a 5s i/o timeout. Parse the QEMU uint32
length-prefix framing with io.ReadFull instead so we read exactly one
frame per iteration regardless of how the kernel buffers them. The
SOCK_DGRAM path (TestProtocolUnixDgram) keeps the original raw Read
since datagram boundaries are preserved.

These where the top two flakes in oss on the flakes dashboards.

Mike O'DriscollandGitHub 732bde6e86 tstest/natlab: test home DERP is re-reported after a profile switch (#20051)
Add a vmtest that guards the fix in #20025: after an in-process control
client swap (profile switch / interactive re-login), magicsock's NetInfo
dedup cache (netInfoLast) must be cleared so the structurally-identical
post-switch NetInfo (same PreferredDERP, same NAT shape) is re-reported to
the new control session rather than suppressed as unchanged.

The test brings a node up, pins its home DERP so the reported NetInfo is
identical across the switch, records the home DERP the test control learned,
switches to a fresh login profile on the same control/network/NAT/DERP, and
asserts the control re-learns the same non-zero home DERP for the node's new
identity. Without ResetNetInfoLast the assertion times out at HomeDERP=0.

To support this, vnet now serves the test control on port 443 (TLS) in
addition to port 80: an immediate re-login makes a fresh noise dial, and
because the prior dial was recent the control client forces an HTTPS (443)
dial (controlhttp.Dialer.forceNoise443), which the harness previously did
not answer. The control endpoint gets its own self-signed cert (the existing
selfSignedDERPCert helper, renamed to the generic selfSignedCert); the cert
is not validated since control noise dials authenticate via the Noise
handshake, so it only needs a TLS peer to complete the forced 443 dial.

Add Env.ForcePreferredDERP and Env.Relogin helpers for the above.

This adds a fake vnet ACME service, TXT-backed SetDNS support, and a
VM test that fetches a certificate with tailscale cert, serves it with
tailscale serve, and verifies HTTPS from a second node.

This adds coverage motivated by #19915.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 772be1b0cc gokrazy, clientupdate: add start of Gokrazy auto-updates, tests
This adds support for Gokrazy GAF (Gokrazy Archive Format) zip
auto-updates, starting to wire up Tailscale's clientupdate mechanism
to Gokrazy's update mechanism.

Currently there's just a CLI command to update from a GAF URL,
with an --unsigned flag for use in a new natlab vmtest.

Next step would be publishing unstable track GAF files on
pkgs.tailscale.com, with detached signatures, and then making the
clientupdate mechanism also download those and check signatures.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 40c98cd267 tstest/natlab/vmtest: deflake, de-strictify TestSelfSignedDERPHashPinning
The test was asserting that a tailnet ping between two nodes traversed
DERP rather than going direct. But that wasn't really the point of the test,
and I kept forgetting ways that magicsock could find direct paths and
thus break this test.

So loosen it.

We really just want to see whether DERP worked at all and was used in the process
of getting a ping through, whether it was direct or not.

And that "tailscale debug derp" worked at all, which was what the bug
was about to begin with.

No need for all the "must be over DERP" stuff.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 9107354488 tstest/natlab/vnet: send unsolicited IPv6 Router Advertisements
vnet only ever sent IPv6 RAs in response to a Router Solicitation. In
practice this meant gokrazy VMs running with a dual-stack LAN never
installed vnet's IPv6 default route: gokrazy brings the link up via
DHCPv4 and the kernel never emits an RS on its own under that init
path. Off-link IPv6 destinations like the fake DERP servers were
therefore unreachable from any gokrazy test node that also had v4
on the same interface. (Pure-v6 nodes happened to work because the
kernel sends an RS as part of v6-only autoconf.)

Fix this in two complementary ways:

  - Send an unsolicited RA every 5s to the link-local all-nodes group
    on every v6-enabled network. This matches what real routers do
    (RFC 4861 §6.2.1, MaxRtrAdvInterval; we use a much shorter
    interval than the spec's 200s default so short-lived tests don't
    have to wait).

  - Send a unicast RA to a newly-registered MAC as soon as a client
    first transmits on the wire. Without this the first periodic RA
    can land before any VM has connected and the next one isn't
    until the next tick, which can be longer than the test runs.

Factor the RA serialization out into buildIPv6RouterAdvertisement so
the solicited, periodic, and per-client paths all share one body.

Update TestSelfSignedDERPHashPinning to use a dual-stack hard-NAT
builder and assert zero errors from DebugDERPRegion (instead of
filtering "over IPv6" errors as it had to before this change). The
new builder also sets TS_DEBUG_STRIP_ENDPOINTS=1 on tailscaled so
disco can't find a direct path: without endpoint stripping, the now-
working non-NATted IPv6 LAN gives the two hard-NAT'd nodes a direct
route, defeating the test's "must traverse DERP" assertion. (Hard
NAT alone was enough before this change because v6 routing was
broken.) Also update sendBetweenClients in the vnet unit tests to
tolerate the new on-register RA noise on its read path.

c91b7188e8 ipn/localapi,tstest/natlab: fix debug derp TLS check for sha256-raw CertName
serveDebugDERPRegion built its TLS config with
ServerName: cmp.Or(derpNode.CertName, derpNode.HostName), which for a
"sha256-raw:<hex>" CertName passed the raw fingerprint to Go's stock
verifier as a hostname; the handshake always failed with a hostname
mismatch. This is the second half of #15579; the first half (tailscaled
itself failing with "unexpected multiple certs presented") was fixed in

Extract a tlsConfigForNode helper that mirrors derphttp.Client.tlsClient
so that sha256-raw and domain-fronting CertName values are dispatched
to tlsdial.SetConfigExpectedCertHash and tlsdial.SetConfigExpectedCert
respectively, falling back to HostName when CertName is empty.

The core fix here was originally written by @imnuke in #19965; that PR
also added a unit test in ipn/localapi/debugderp_test.go which is
replaced in this commit by a new vmtest that exercises the whole stack:
vnet now serves a self-signed cert valid for each fake DERP node's
HostName and exposes its SHA-256 fingerprint, and vmtest grows a new
SelfSignedDERPCertPinning EnvOption that swaps the test DERP map's
nodes to CertName="sha256-raw:<hex>" with InsecureForTests cleared.
TestSelfSignedDERPHashPinning then stands up two hard-NAT'd nodes, has
them communicate over DERP, and calls DebugDERPRegion on each. Before
this fix the test fails with the exact x509 hostname-mismatch error
from the original bug; after, it passes.

Claus LensbølandGitHub 9be21088f4 wgengine/{,magicsock},tstest/natlab/vmtest: send disco on cached netmap (#19878)
Originally found when adding tests for working with cached netmaps, and
finding the added tests to be flakey.

When working off of a cached netmap, if a node exists in the cached
netmap but does not yet have any endpoints, DERP connections are
available but not direct ones. By sending callMeMaybe to nodes
without endpoints in the cached netmap, we can establish direct
connections for this edge case.

Aditionally, ensure that TSMP disco advert messages are not sent if the
endpoint does not have a valid address yet.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick f3a117e813 net/tsdial: run happy eyeballs across A and AAAA in UserDial
When tailscaled is running in userspace-networking mode behind an
exit node (e.g. as a SOCKS5 proxy), it resolves a hostname and then
dials a single resolved IP through the tunnel. If the name has both
A and AAAA, Go's net.Resolver merges them and we pick ips[0], which
on an IPv6-native host is usually AAAA. If the exit node has no IPv6
egress (or vice versa), the dial fails silently through the tunnel
and the user sees a hang.

Resolve all candidates and race connect attempts across address
families with a 300ms happy-eyeballs delay, matching Go's net.Dialer
default and the existing pattern in net/dnscache (commit ee0a03b14).
First success wins; losers are cancelled and any conns they produce
are closed. A failBoost channel wakes the launcher when a connect
fails fast (e.g. ICMP "no route" via the tunnel) so we don't sit on
the 300ms timer when the answer is already known.

userDialResolve is refactored into userDialResolveAll (returns the
full candidate list) plus a thin single-IP wrapper for callers like
UserDialPlan that don't race. UserDial's per-IP dispatch (netstack
vs peer dialer vs SystemDial vs std) is extracted to dialOneUser so
each candidate can route correctly on its own merits.

Also fix serveDial in localapi to pass the original hostname to
UserDial rather than a pre-resolved IP, so the race can fire.

This fix is single-ended: it works against any exit node, including
old ones, with no protocol changes. The trade-off versus filtering
on the exit-node side via PeerAPI DoH is that every dial through an
unreachable-family exit node costs one failed connect attempt per
cache window, rather than zero, which is acceptable given the
simplicity.

Claus LensbølandGitHub ee0a03b140 net/dnscache: run happy eyeballs with more than one dest IP (#19770)
If the context given to DialContext has a shorter lifetime than the OS
TCP SYN timeout, and TCP SYNs are dropped from the path to the remote,
DialContext would never fall back to try IPv6 after IPv4.

Instead, use the normal happy eyeballs race if there is more than one
address. This does remove the implicit prioritization of IPv4 over IPv6
in cases where there is only a single IPv4 remote address.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 93440604e0 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add TestPeerRelay
Add a VM-based natlab test that exercises the peer-relay feature
(feature/relayserver) end-to-end across three Tailscale nodes whose
network topology makes a direct A<->B UDP path impossible: both peers
are behind HardNAT (FreeBSD/pfSense-style endpoint-dependent NAT) with
no port-mapping services, while the relay node is behind One2OneNAT so
its STUN-discovered WAN endpoint is reachable from both peers. The
test enables the relay server via EditPrefs, then waits for an a->b
PingDisco whose PingResult.PeerRelay is set (proving magicsock chose
the peer-relay path, not DERP), and finally asserts that the relay's
DebugPeerRelaySessions LocalAPI reports the session.

The existing TestPeerRelayPing in tstest/integration runs three
tailscaled processes on the loopback interface with no NATs; this new
vmtest covers peer relay through real per-VM kernels and NATs.

To wire control-server capabilities into vmtest, also add a
PeerRelayGrants() EnvOption (sibling of AllOnline,
SameTailnetUser) that flips testcontrol.Server.PeerRelayGrants so the
wildcard packet filter grants tailcfg.PeerCapabilityRelay and
PeerCapabilityRelayTarget; without those caps magicsock won't consider
any peer a candidate relay.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick e062b46984 tstest/natlab, .github/workflows: add opt-in natlab CI workflow
The natlab vmtest suite (tstest/natlab/vmtest) and the integration nat
tests are gated behind --run-vm-tests because they need KVM and are
slow. Until now nothing in CI exercised them apart from a single
canary TestEasyEasy run on every PR.

Add .github/workflows/natlab-test.yml that runs the full opt-in suite
on demand (workflow_dispatch), on PRs labeled "natlab", and on main
every 12 hours via cron. The workflow has two phases:

  - "prepare" builds the gokrazy VM image, downloads the Ubuntu and
    FreeBSD cloud images once via the new natlabprep tool, and emits
    a dynamic JSON matrix of every TestX function it finds in the two
    opt-in packages.
  - "test" is a per-test matrix that depends on prepare. Each matrix
    job restores the shared caches and runs a single test, so adding
    a new TestFoo is automatically picked up on the next run without
    any workflow edits.

Rename the existing natlab-integrationtest.yml to natlab-basic.yml
since it's the small smoke variant (just TestEasyEasy on every PR);
the new natlab-test.yml is the bigger suite. The job inside is
renamed to EasyEasy for the same reason.

Move the macOS arm64 host check from vmtest.Env.Start into
vmtest.Env.AddNode so a test that adds a vmtest.MacOS node skips
immediately on a non-macOS host, and add an explicit
skipIfNotMacOSArm64 helper at the top of the two macOS-only tests
so the platform requirement is obvious to readers.

Quiet the takeAgentConnOne miss log in tstest/natlab/vnet by default
(it was the overwhelming majority of bytes in CI logs, with no signal
in healthy runs) and replace it with a periodic "still waiting" line
that only fires after 10s, so a truly stuck agent connection still
surfaces.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 15cba0a3f6 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add TestDiscoKeyChange
Add a vmtest that brings up two gokrazy nodes A and B behind two
One2OneNAT networks (so direct UDP works in both directions and any
slowness can't be blamed on NAT traversal), establishes a WireGuard
tunnel A → B with TSMP, then rotates B's disco key four times and
asserts that the data plane recovers in both directions after each
rotation. All pings are TSMP (the data-plane ping; disco pings would
not exercise the WireGuard tunnel itself).

The five pings:

  1. A → B  (initial; brings up the tunnel; 30s budget)
  2. B → A  after rotate (LocalAPI rotate-disco-key debug action)
  3. A → B  after rotate (LocalAPI)
  4. B → A  after restart (SIGKILL; gokrazy supervisor respawns)
  5. A → B  after restart (SIGKILL)

Each post-rotation ping gets a 15-second budget. Two unavoidable
multi-second waits dominate today:

  - The rotate-then-a→b phase takes ~10s on main because of LazyWG.
    After B's WantRunning bounce, B's wgengine resets its
    sentActivityAt/recvActivityAt maps and trims A out of the
    wireguard-go config as an "idle peer"; B only re-adds A on
    inbound activity, by which point A's first few TSMP packets
    have been silently dropped at B's tundev. The
    bradfitz/rm_lazy_wg branch removes that trimming entirely
    (verified locally: this phase drops to <100ms there).

  - The restart phases take ~5s for wireguard-go's RekeyTimeout
    handshake retry. After SIGKILL+respawn the first WG handshake
    init from the restarted node sometimes goes into the void
    (likely the brief peer-removed window in the receiver's
    two-step maybeReconfigWireguardLocked reconfig during which
    the peer is absent from wireguard-go), and wg-go's 5s+jitter
    retransmit timer is the next opportunity to retry. That retry
    succeeds and the staged TSMP packet flushes. Intrinsic to the
    protocol's retransmit policy.

Once LazyWG is removed and the first-handshake-after-reconfig race
is fixed, the budget should drop to 5s.

Supporting changes:

  ipn/ipnlocal: DebugRotateDiscoKey now toggles WantRunning off and
  back on after rotating the disco key. magicsock.Conn.RotateDiscoKey
  only resets local disco state; without also dropping wireguard-go
  session keys, peers keep encrypting with their stale per-peer
  session against us until their rekey timer fires (WireGuard has no
  data-plane signaling to invalidate sessions). Bouncing WantRunning
  runs the engine through Reconfig(empty) → authReconfig, which
  drops every peer's WG session so the next packet either way
  triggers a fresh handshake.

  ipn/ipnlocal, ipn/localapi: add a debug-only "peer-disco-keys"
  LocalAPI action ([LocalBackend.DebugPeerDiscoKeys]) that returns
  a map[NodePublic]DiscoPublic from the current netmap. Tests reach
  it via [local.Client.DebugResultJSON]. We do not surface disco
  keys via [ipnstate.PeerStatus] because adding a non-comparable
  [key.DiscoPublic] field there breaks reflect-based test helpers
  (e.g. TestFilterFormatAndSortExitNodes' use of cmp.Diff), and
  general LocalAPI clients have no need for disco keys. Since the
  debug LocalAPI is gated behind the ts_omit_debug build tag, this
  endpoint is automatically stripped from small binaries.

  cmd/tta: add /restart-tailscaled handler (Linux-only, via /proc walk)
  to drive the SIGKILL phase. On gokrazy the supervisor respawns
  tailscaled within a second.

  tstest/integration/testcontrol: add Server.AllOnline. When set,
  every peer entry in MapResponses is marked Online=true. Several
  disco-key handling fast paths in controlclient and wgengine
  (removeUnwantedDiscoUpdates, removeUnwantedDiscoUpdatesFromFull
  NetmapUpdate, the wgengine tsmpLearnedDisco fast path) only fire
  for online peers; without this flag, tests exercising disco-key
  rotation only hit the offline-peer code paths, which mask issues
  and are several seconds slower in this scenario. Finer-grained
  per-node online tracking can be added later.

  tstest/natlab/vmtest: add Env.RotateDiscoKey,
  Env.RestartTailscaled, Env.PeerDiscoKey, Node.Name, an
  [AllOnline] EnvOption that plumbs through to
  testcontrol.Server.AllOnline, and an exported
  Env.Ping(from, to, type, timeout). Ping replaces the unexported
  helper so callers can specify both a ping type (PingDisco for
  warming peer state, PingTSMP for asserting end-to-end
  connectivity) and a deadline. PeerDiscoKey returns its LocalAPI
  error so callers inside tstest.WaitFor can retry transient
  failures rather than fataling the test.

- Launch Host.app with --disconnected-nic --attach-network --assign-ip
- VZ restores from SaveFile.vzvmsave (~5s with 4GB RAM)
- TTA's vsock poll gets the IP config, sets static IP via ifconfig
  (bypasses DHCP entirely), switches driver addr to the IP directly
  (bypasses DNS), and resets the dial context so the reverse-dial
  reconnects immediately
- TTA agent connects to test driver within ~2s of IP assignment

Key optimizations:
- 4GB RAM instead of 8GB: halves SaveFile.vzvmsave (1.4GB vs 2.4GB),
  halves restore time (5.5s vs 11s)
- AF_VSOCK IP assignment: bypasses macOS DHCP (~5-7s saved)
- Direct IP dial: bypasses DNS resolution for test-driver.tailscale
- Dial context reset: cancels stale in-flight dials from snapshot
- Kill instead of SIGINT for test VM cleanup (no state save needed)
- Parallel VM launches

Also:
- Add TestDriverIPv4/TestDriverPort constants to vnet
- Add --nat-nic and --assign-ip flags to Host.app
- Fix SIGINT handler: retain DispatchSource globally, use dispatchMain()
- Add vsock listener (port 51011) to Host.app for IP config protocol
- Add disconnectNetwork() to VMController for clean snapshot state
- Fix Makefile: set -o pipefail so xcodebuild failures aren't swallowed

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 4cec06b8f2 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add macOS VM screenshot streaming to web UI
When --vmtest-web is set, Host.app is launched with --screenshot-port 0
to start a localhost HTTP server that captures the VZVirtualMachineView
display. The Go test harness parses the SCREENSHOT_PORT=<port> line from
stdout, then polls every 2 seconds for JPEG thumbnails and pushes them
over WebSocket to the web dashboard.

Clicking a screenshot thumbnail opens a full-resolution image proxied
through the web UI's /screenshot/{node} endpoint.

Screenshot events are excluded from the EventBus history (they're large
and only the latest matters, stored in NodeStatus.Screenshot).

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick b2d4ba04b6 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add macOS VM support using Tart base images
Add macOS VM support to the vmtest framework using Tart's pre-built
macOS images (ghcr.io/cirruslabs/macos-tahoe-base) instead of building
from IPSW. The Tart image has SIP disabled and SSH enabled.

At test time, the Tart base image's disk, NVRAM, and hardware identity
are APFS-cloned into a tailmac-compatible directory layout, and the VM
is booted headlessly via tailmac's Host.app (Virtualization.framework)
with its NIC connected to vnet's dgram socket.

New features:
- tailmac.go: ensureTartImage (auto-pull), cloneTartToTailmac (format
  conversion), startTailMacVM (launch + cleanup)
- NoAgent() node option for VMs without TTA installed
- LANPing() for ICMP reachability testing via TTA's /ping endpoint
- IsMacOS field on OSImage, with GOOS/GOARCH support
- Dgram socket listener in Start() for macOS VMs
- Fix ReadFromUnix error spam on dgram socket close in vnet

TestMacOSAndLinuxCanPing verifies a macOS Tart VM and a gokrazy Linux
VM can ping each other on the same vnet LAN.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick ec7b11d986 tstest/natlab/vmtest, cmd/tta: add TestTaildrop
Add a vmtest that brings up two Ubuntu nodes, each behind its own
EasyNAT, joined to the tailnet. The sender pushes a small file via
"tailscale file cp" and the receiver fetches it via "tailscale file
get --wait", asserting that the filename and contents round-trip
unchanged.

To make Taildrop work in vmtest, three small pieces were needed:

The Linux/FreeBSD cloud-init now starts tailscaled with --statedir as
well as --state=mem:, so the daemon has a VarRoot to host Taildrop's
incoming-files directory. State itself remains in-memory (so nothing
persists across reboots); only the var-root scratch space is on disk.

vmtest.New grows a variadic EnvOption parameter and a SameTailnetUser
helper. When the option is passed, Start sets AllNodesSameUser=true
on the embedded testcontrol.Server. Cross-node Taildrop requires the
sender and receiver to share a Tailnet user (or have an explicit
PeerCapabilityFileSharingTarget granted between them, which we don't
plumb here), so TestTaildrop opts in. Existing tests don't.

cmd/tta gains /taildrop-send and /taildrop-recv handlers that wrap
"tailscale file cp" and "tailscale file get --wait", plus
Env.SendTaildropFile and Env.RecvTaildropFile helpers in vmtest that
drive them.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 4b8e0ede6d tstest/natlab/{vmtest,vnet}, cmd/tta: add TestMullvadExitNode
Add a vmtest that brings up a Tailscale client, an Ubuntu VM acting
as a Mullvad-style plain-WireGuard exit node, and a non-Tailscale
webserver, each on its own NAT'd vnet network with a distinct WAN
IP. The test exercises Tailscale's IsWireGuardOnly peer code path:
the way the control plane wires Mullvad exit nodes into a client's
netmap, including the per-client SelfNodeV4MasqAddrForThisPeer
source-IP rewrite that lets a Tailscale CGNAT IP egress through a
plain-WireGuard tunnel that has no idea what Tailscale is.

The mullvad VM doesn't run wireguard-tools or kernel WireGuard;
instead, a new TTA endpoint /wg-server-up creates a real Linux TUN
named wg0, drives it with wireguard-go (already vendored), and
configures the kernel side (ip addr/up, ip_forward, iptables NAT
MASQUERADE) so decrypted traffic from the peer egresses with the
mullvad VM's WAN IP. Userspace vs kernel WireGuard makes no
difference on the wire — what's being tested is Tailscale's
plain-WireGuard exit-node code path, not the kernel module — and
this lets the test avoid downloading and installing .deb packages
inside the VM.

Adds Env.BringUpMullvadWGServer (calls /wg-server-up, returns the
generated WG public key as a key.NodePublic), Env.SetExitNodeIP
(EditPrefs ExitNodeIP directly, for exit nodes whose IPs aren't
discoverable via TTA), Env.ControlServer (exposes the underlying
testcontrol.Server so tests can UpdateNode / SetMasqueradeAddresses
to inject custom peers), and Env.Status (fetches a node's tailscale
status, used to read the client's pubkey so we can pin it as the
WG server's only allowed peer).

The test verifies that the webserver's echoed source IP is the
client's WAN with no exit node selected, the mullvad VM's WAN with
the WG-only peer selected as exit, and the client's WAN again after
clearing.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick b9eac14ef9 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add web UI for watching VM tests live
Add an optional --vmtest-web flag that starts an HTTP server showing a
live dashboard for vmtest runs. The dashboard includes:

- Step progress tracker showing all test phases (compile, image prep,
  QEMU launch, agent connect, tailscale up, test-specific steps)
  with status icons and elapsed times
- Per-VM "virtual monitor" cards showing serial console output
  streamed in realtime via WebSocket
- Per-NIC DHCP status (supporting multi-homed VMs like subnet routers)
- Per-node Tailscale status (hidden for non-tailnet VMs)
- Test status badge (Running/Passed/Failed) with live elapsed timer
- Event log showing all lifecycle events chronologically

Architecture follows the existing util/eventbus HTMX+WebSocket pattern:
the server pushes HTML fragments with hx-swap-oob attributes over a
WebSocket, and HTMX routes them to the correct DOM elements by ID.

Key components:
- vmstatus.go: Step tracker (Begin/End lifecycle), EventBus (pub/sub
  with history for late joiners), VMEvent types, NodeStatus tracking
- web.go: HTTP server, WebSocket handler, template loading, ANSI-to-HTML
  conversion via robert-nix/ansihtml, deterministic port selection
- assets/: HTML templates, CSS, HTMX library (copied from eventbus)
- vnet/vnet.go: DHCP event callback on Server for observing DHCP lifecycle
- qemu.go: Console log file tailing with manual offset-based reading

Usage:
  go test ./tstest/natlab/vmtest/ --run-vm-tests --vmtest-web=:0 -v

When using :0, a deterministic port based on the test name is tried
first so re-runs get the same URL, falling back to OS-assigned on
conflict.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick cb239808a6 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add --test-version flag
Add a --test-version flag to run the natlab VM tests against
released tailscale/tailscaled binaries downloaded from
pkgs.tailscale.com instead of building from the source tree.

The value can be a concrete release like "1.97.255", or "stable" /
"unstable" which resolve to the latest TarballsVersion on that track
via pkgs.tailscale.com/<track>/?mode=json. The track for a concrete
version is derived from its minor (even=stable, odd=unstable). The
host architecture (amd64 or arm64) selects the tarball.

Tarballs are cached + extracted under
~/.cache/tailscale-vmtest/builds/<version>_<arch>/ so they are not
re-fetched per test. tta is still always built from the local tree.
Cloud VMs (Ubuntu, Debian) pick up the downloaded binaries via the
existing files.tailscale file server. Non-Linux GOOS (FreeBSD) falls
back to building from source since pkgs.tailscale.com only ships
Linux tarballs. Gokrazy nodes continue to use binaries baked into
the gokrazy image; --test-version is a no-op for them.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick d0ae993334 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add more subnet router tests
Add two tests building on TestExitNode's framework:

TestSubnetRouterPublicIP brings up a client, a subnet router, and a
webserver, each on its own NAT'd network with distinct WAN IPs. The
subnet router advertises the webserver's network as a route. The test
toggles the client's --accept-routes preference and asserts that the
webserver's echoed source IP switches between the client's own WAN
(direct dial) and the subnet router's WAN (forwarded through the
router and SNAT'd).

TestSubnetRouterAndExitNode adds a fourth node, an exit node that
advertises 0.0.0.0/0 + ::/0, and uses a table-driven layout with
subtests to cover the four combinations of (exit on/off, subnet
on/off). The case where both are on confirms longest-prefix match
wins: the subnet router's /24 takes precedence over the exit node's
/0. The exit node itself is configured with --accept-routes=off so
that, in the exit-only case, it forwards directly to the simulated
internet rather than re-routing the forwarded traffic via the subnet
router (which would otherwise mask the exit node's WAN as the
observed source).

Adds an Env.SetAcceptRoutes helper for toggling the RouteAll pref via
EditPrefs, used by both tests.

Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick 5c1738fd56 tstest/natlab/{vmtest,vnet}, cmd/tta: add TestExitNode
Add a vmtest TestExitNode that brings up a client, two exit nodes, and a
non-Tailscale webserver, each on its own NAT'd vnet network with a
distinct WAN IP. The test cycles the client's exit node setting between
off, exit1, and exit2 and asserts that the webserver echoes the expected
post-NAT source IP for each.

Three pieces were needed to make this work:

vnet now forwards TCP between simulated networks at the packet level,
mirroring the existing UDP path. When a guest VM sends TCP to another
simulated network's WAN IP, the source network's gateway rewrites src
via doNATOut and routeTCPPacket hands the packet off to the destination
network, which rewrites dst via doNATIn and writes the rewritten frame
onto the destination LAN. The TCP stacks of the two guest VM kernels
talk end-to-end; vnet just NATs the IP/port headers in flight, so all
TCP semantics (handshakes, options, sequence numbers, payload) are
preserved without a gvisor TCP termination in the middle. Adds a
focused TestInterNetworkTCP that exercises this path without any
Tailscale machinery.

cmd/tta binds its outbound dial to the default route's interface using
SO_BINDTODEVICE. Without that, the moment tailscaled installs
0.0.0.0/0 → tailscale0 in response to setting an exit node, TTA's
existing TCP connection to test-driver gets rerouted through the exit
node. From the test driver's perspective the connection's packets then
arrive with the exit node's WAN IP as the source rather than the
client's, so they don't match the existing flow and the connection is
dead — manifesting in the test as a hang on EditPrefs (which had
actually completed in milliseconds on the daemon side, but whose
response never made it back). Pinning the socket to the underlying NIC
keeps TTA's agent connection on a real interface regardless of any
policy routing tailscaled installs later. We bind rather than carry the
Tailscale bypass fwmark because the fwmark approach is conditional on
tailscaled having configured SO_MARK-based policy routing, while
binding is unconditional.

vmtest grows an Env.SetExitNode helper that sets ExitNodeIP via
EditPrefs through the agent, used by the new test.
