Will Norris	3ec5be3f51	all: remove AUTHORS file and references to it This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in the history of Tailscale's open source releases. A Brief History of AUTHORS files --- The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact. The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The Chromium Authors". This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way for the proejct maintainer to know. Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors. They are also clear that: > Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the > project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership. It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright holders. In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so it's ambiguous what that means. Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which provides some additional certification of their right to make the contribution. The source file changes were purely mechanical with: git ls-files \| xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g' Updates #cleanup Change-Id: Ia101a4a3005adb9118051b3416f5a64a4a45987d Signed-off-by: Will Norris <will@tailscale.com>	3 days ago
Brad Fitzpatrick	2434bc69fc	util/syspolicy/{setting,ptype}: move PreferenceOption and Visibility to new leaf package Step 3 in the series. See earlier `cc532efc20` and `d05e6dc09e`. This step moves some types into a new leaf "ptype" package out of the big "settings" package. The policyclient.Client will later get new methods to return those things (as well as Duration and Uint64, which weren't done at the time of the earlier prototype).

Brad Fitzpatrick	cc532efc20	util/syspolicy/*: move syspolicy keys to new const leaf "pkey" package This is step 1 of ~3, breaking up #14720 into reviewable chunks, with the aim to make syspolicy be a build-time configurable feature. In this first (very noisy) step, all the syspolicy string key constants move to a new constant-only (code-free) package. This will make future steps more reviewable, without this movement noise. There are no code or behavior changes here. The future steps of this series can be seen in #14720: removing global funcs from syspolicy resolution and using an interface that's plumbed around instead. Then adding build tags.

Nick Khyl	381fdcc3f1	ipn/ipnlocal,util/syspolicy/source: retain existing exit node when using auto exit node, if it's allowed by policy In this PR, we update setExitNodeID to retain the existing exit node if auto exit node is enabled, the current exit node is allowed by policy, and no suggested exit node is available yet.

Brad Fitzpatrick	265c76dbc5	all: unify some redundant testing.TB interface copies I added yet another one in `6d117d64a2` but that new one is at the best place int he dependency graph and has the best name, so let's use that one for everything possible. types/lazy can't use it for circular dependency reasons, so unexport that copy at least.

Nick Khyl	f0db47338e	cmd/tailscaled,util/syspolicy/source,util/winutil/gp: disallow acquiring the GP lock during service startup In v1.78, we started acquiring the GP lock when reading policy settings. This led to a deadlock during Tailscale installation via Group Policy Software Installation because the GP engine holds the write lock for the duration of policy processing, which in turn waits for the installation to complete, which in turn waits for the service to enter the running state. In this PR, we prevent the acquisition of GP locks (aka EnterCriticalPolicySection) during service startup and update the Windows Registry-based util/syspolicy/source.PlatformPolicyStore to handle this failure gracefully. The GP lock is somewhat optional; it’s safe to read policy settings without it, but acquiring the lock is recommended when reading multiple values to prevent the Group Policy engine from modifying settings mid-read and to avoid inconsistent results.

Brad Fitzpatrick	1e2e319e7d	util/slicesx: add MapKeys and MapValues from golang.org/x/exp/maps Importing the ~deprecated golang.org/x/exp/maps as "xmaps" to not shadow the std "maps" was getting ugly. And using slices.Collect on an iterator is verbose & allocates more. So copy (x)maps.Keys+Values into our slicesx package instead.

Nick Khyl	2336c340c4	util/syspolicy: implement a syspolicy store that reads settings from environment variables In this PR, we implement (but do not use yet, pending #13727 review) a syspolicy/source.Store that reads policy settings from environment variables. It converts a CamelCase setting.Key, such as AuthKey or ExitNodeID, to a SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE, TS_-prefixed environment variable name, such as TS_AUTH_KEY and TS_EXIT_NODE_ID. It then looks up the variable and attempts to parse it according to the expected value type. If the environment variable is not set, the policy setting is considered not configured in this store (the syspolicy package will still read it from other sources). Similarly, if the environment variable has an invalid value for the setting type, it won't be used (though the reported/logged error will differ).

Nick Khyl	ff5f233c3a	util/syspolicy: add rsop package that provides access to the resultant policy In this PR we add syspolicy/rsop package that facilitates policy source registration and provides access to the resultant policy merged from all registered sources for a given scope.

Nick Khyl	aeb15dea30	util/syspolicy/source: add package for reading policy settings from external stores We add package defining interfaces for policy stores, enabling creation of policy sources and reading settings from them. It includes a Windows-specific PlatformPolicyStore for GP and MDM policies stored in the Registry, and an in-memory TestStore for testing purposes. We also include an internal package that tracks and reports policy usage metrics when a policy setting is read from a store. Initially, it will be used only on Windows and Android, as macOS, iOS, and tvOS report their own metrics. However, we plan to use it across all platforms eventually.
