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.

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.
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:
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.
