This is step 2 of ~4, breaking up #14720 into reviewable chunks, with the aim to make syspolicy be a build-time configurable feature. Step 1 was #16984. In this second step, the util/syspolicy/policyclient package is added with the policyclient.Client interface. This is the interface that's always present (regardless of build tags), and is what code around the tree uses to ask syspolicy/MDM questions. There are two implementations of policyclient.Client for now: 1) NoPolicyClient, which only returns default values. 2) the unexported, temporary 'globalSyspolicy', which is implemented in terms of the global functions we wish to later eliminate. This then starts to plumb around the policyclient.Client to most callers. Future changes will plumb it more. When the last of the global func callers are gone, then we can unexport the global functions and make a proper policyclient.Client type and constructor in the syspolicy package, removing the globalSyspolicy impl out of tsd. The final change will sprinkle build tags in a few more places and lock it in with dependency tests to make sure the dependencies don't later creep back in.

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 1.23. (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
