Without this, any test relying on underlying use of magicsock will fail
without network connectivity, even when the test logic has no need for a
network connection. Tests currently in this bucket include many in
tstest/integration and in tsnet.
Further explanation:
ipn only becomes Running when it sees at least one live peer or DERP
connection:
0cc1b2ff76/ipn/ipnlocal/local.go (L5861-L5866)
When tests only use a single node, they will never see a peer, so the
node has to wait to see a DERP server.
magicsock sets the preferred DERP server in updateNetInfo(), but this
function returns early if the network is down.
0cc1b2ff76/wgengine/magicsock/magicsock.go (L1053-L1106)
Because we're checking the real network, this prevents ipn from entering
"Running" and causes the test to fail or hang.
In tests, we can assume the network is up unless we're explicitly testing
the behaviour of tailscaled when the network is down. We do something similar
in magicsock/derp.go, where we assume we're connected to control unless
explicitly testing otherwise:
7d2101f352/wgengine/magicsock/derp.go (L166-L177)
This is the template for the changes to `networkDown()`.

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.
