On FreeBSD and Darwin, changing a process's supplementary groups with
setgroups(2) will also change the egid of the process, setting it to the
first entry in the provided list. This is distinct from the behaviour on
other platforms (and possibly a violation of the POSIX standard).
Because of this, on FreeBSD with no TTY, our incubator code would
previously not change the process's gid, because it would read the
newly-changed egid, compare it against the expected egid, and since they
matched, not change the gid. Because we didn't use the 'login' program
on FreeBSD without a TTY, this would propagate to a child process.
This could be observed by running "id -p" in two contexts. The expected
output, and the output returned when running from a SSH shell, is:
andrew@freebsd:~ $ id -p
uid andrew
groups andrew
However, when run via "ssh andrew@freebsd id -p", the output would be:
$ ssh andrew@freebsd id -p
login root
uid andrew
rgid wheel
groups andrew
(this could also be observed via "id -g -r" to print just the gid)
We fix this by pulling the details of privilege dropping out into their
own function and prepending the expected gid to the start of the list on
Darwin and FreeBSD.
Finally, we add some tests that run a child process, drop privileges,
and assert that the final UID/GID/additional groups are what we expect.

Tailscale
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:
- the Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android
- the Synology package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-synology
- the QNAP package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg
- the Chocolatey packaging is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-chocolatey
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 1.20. (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 git log for our commit message style. It's basically the same as
Go's style.
