Changed UpdateUser and re-registration flows to use Updates() which only
writes modified fields, preventing unintended overwrites of unchanged fields.
Also updated UsePreAuthKey to use Model().Update() for single field updates
and removed unused NodeSave wrapper.
Fixes a regression introduced in v0.27.0 where node expiry times were
being reset to zero when tailscaled restarts and sends a MapRequest.
The issue was caused by using GORM's Save() method in persistNodeToDB(),
which overwrites ALL fields including zero values. When a MapRequest
updates a node (without including expiry information), Save() would
overwrite the database expiry field with a zero value.
Changed to use Updates() which only updates non-zero values, preserving
existing database values when struct pointer fields are nil.
In BackfillNodeIPs, we need to explicitly update IPv4/IPv6 fields even
when nil (to remove IPs), so we use Select() to specify those fields.
Added regression test that validates expiry is preserved after MapRequest.
Fixes#2862
Skip auth key validation for existing nodes re-registering with the same
NodeKey. Pre-auth keys are only required for initial authentication.
NodeKey rotation still requires a valid auth key as it is a security-sensitive
operation that changes the node's cryptographic identity.
Fixes#2830
This PR addresses some consistency issues that was introduced or discovered with the nodestore.
nodestore:
Now returns the node that is being put or updated when it is finished. This closes a race condition where when we read it back, we do not necessarily get the node with the given change and it ensures we get all the other updates from that batch write.
auth:
Authentication paths have been unified and simplified. It removes a lot of bad branches and ensures we only do the minimal work.
A comprehensive auth test set has been created so we do not have to run integration tests to validate auth and it has allowed us to generate test cases for all the branches we currently know of.
integration:
added a lot more tooling and checks to validate that nodes reach the expected state when they come up and down. Standardised between the different auth models. A lot of this is to support or detect issues in the changes to nodestore (races) and auth (inconsistencies after login and reaching correct state)
This PR was assisted, particularly tests, by claude code.
- tailscale client gets a new AuthUrl and sets entry in the regcache
- regcache entry expires
- client doesn't know about that
- client always polls followup request а gets error
When user clicks "Login" in the app (after cache expiry), they visit
invalid URL and get "node not found in registration cache". Some clients
on Windows for e.g. can't get a new AuthUrl without restart the app.
To fix that we can issue a new reg id and return user a new valid
AuthUrl.
RegisterNode is refactored to be created with NewRegisterNode() to
autocreate channel and other stuff.
the client will send a lot of fields as `nil` if they have
not changed. NetInfo, which is inside Hostinfo, is one of those
fields and we often would override the whole hostinfo meaning that
we would remove netinfo if it hadnt changed.

Initial work on a nodestore which stores all of the nodes
and their relations in memory with relationship for peers
precalculated.
It is a copy-on-write structure, replacing the "snapshot"
when a change to the structure occurs. It is optimised for reads,
and while batches are not fast, they are grouped together
to do less of the expensive peer calculation if there are many
changes rapidly.
Writes will block until commited, while reads are never
blocked.

There was a bug in HA subnet router handover where we used stale node data
from the longpoll session that we handed to Connect. This meant that we got
some odd behaviour where routes would not be deactivated correctly.
This commit changes to the nodeview is used through out, and we load the
current node to be updated in the write path and then handle it all there
to be consistent.

This commit changes most of our (*)types.Node to
types.NodeView, which is a readonly version of the
underlying node ensuring that there is no mutations
happening in the read path.
Based on the migration, there didnt seem to be any, but the
idea here is to prevent it in the future and simplify other
new implementations.

this commit moves all of the read and write logic, and all different parts
of headscale that manages some sort of persistent and in memory state into
a separate package.
The goal of this is to clearly define the boundry between parts of the app
which accesses and modifies data, and where it happens. Previously, different
state (routes, policy, db and so on) was used directly, and sometime passed to
functions as pointers.
Now all access has to go through state. In the initial implementation,
most of the same functions exists and have just been moved. In the future
centralising this will allow us to optimise bottle necks with the database
(in memory state) and make the different parts talking to eachother do so
in the same way across headscale components.
