Brad FitzpatrickandBrad Fitzpatrick d961e44856 cmd/testwrapper: auto-retry every failing test
Previously, testwrapper only retried tests explicitly annotated with
flakytest.Mark. Authors don't pre-emptively mark tests that haven't
flaked yet, so the first flake of a brand-new test failed CI even
when a re-run would have passed.

testwrapper now retries every failing test within a per-test wall-clock
budget (default: 5 minute per-attempt timeout capped at 1.5x the first
failure duration, 10 minute total). A test that fails and then passes
on retry is reported as flaky; a test that never passes within the
budget remains a real failure (exit non-zero).

For flakeapp's existing log scraping, the wire format is preserved:
the "flakytest failures JSON:" line is now emitted only for tests
that ultimately flaked (passed on retry). Unmarked tests get a fake
issue URL of the form https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/issues/UNKNOWN
where owner/repo is detected from GITHUB_REPOSITORY, the local git
remote, or falls back to tailscale/tailscale. A new "permanent test
failures JSON:" line is emitted for tests that never passed; flakeapp
ignores it for now (a follow-up can teach it to record real failures
separately).

flakytest.Mark stays as an opt-in API: still useful for tracking a
known-flaky test against a real issue and for TS_SKIP_FLAKY_TESTS.

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 1.26. (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.
