client/systray: refresh in place; drop full rebuild on every event
Observed on a minimalist Wayland setup w/ ashell: every IPN-bus event
called systray.ResetMenu() and re-added the full menu. The resulting
LayoutUpdated signal storm let libdbusmenu hosts race into half-built
menus and cache empty submenus.

The menu is now built once and only rebuilt when its structural shape
changes.

Three further bugs surfaced while I was A/B testing these changes, that
I included fixes for:

  - The initial icon is set before systray.Run so the StatusNotifierItem
    exports a non-empty image; this crashed ashell (added resilience
    upstream at MalpenZibo/ashell#693) zero-size pixmap.
  - Mullvad VPN and multi-city country rows are now plain submenu items
    rather than checkboxes-with-children, which some hosts treated as
    selectable leaves -- clicking the parent dismissed the menu instead
    of expanding it (#17879)
  - Exit-node selection is driven off prefs.ExitNodeID rather than
    status.ExitNodeStatus.ID, so a configured-but-unreachable exit node
    renders as "exit node offline" instead of as a plain connected tray.

Fixes #15528
Fixes #17879

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.
