David Anderson 05a52746a4 wgengine/magicsock: fix destination selection logic to work with DERP.
The effect is subtle: when we're not spraying packets, and have not yet
figured out a curAddr, and we're not spraying, we end up sending to
whatever the first IP is in the iteration order. In English, that
means "when we have no idea where to send packets, and we've given
up on sending to everyone, just send to the first addr we see in
the list."

This is, in general, what we want, because the addrs are in sorted
preference order, low to high, and DERP is the least preferred
destination. So, when we have no idea where to send, send to DERP,
right?

... Except for very historical reasons, appendDests iterated through
addresses in _reverse_ order, most preferred to least preferred.
crawshaw@ believes this was part of the earliest handshaking
algorithm magicsock had, where it slowly iterated through possible
destinations and poked handshakes to them one at a time.

Anyway, because of this historical reverse iteration, in the case
described above of "we have no idea where to send", the code would
end up sending to the _most_ preferred candidate address, rather
than the _least_ preferred. So when in doubt, we'd end up firing
packets into the blackhole of some LAN address that doesn't work,
and connectivity would not work.

This case only comes up if all your non-DERP connectivity options
have failed, so we more or less failed to detect it because we
didn't have a pathological test box deployed. Worse, codependent
bug 2839854994 made DERP accidentally
work sometimes anyway by incorrectly exploiting roamAddr behavior,
albeit at the cost of making DERP traffic symmetric. In fixing
DERP to once again be asymmetric, we effectively removed the
bandaid that was concealing this bug.

Tailscale

https://tailscale.com

Private WireGuard® networks made easy

Overview

This repository contains all the open source Tailscale code. It currently includes the Linux client.

The Linux client is currently cmd/relaynode, but will soon be replaced by cmd/tailscaled.

Using

We serve packages for a variety of distros at https://pkgs.tailscale.com .

Building

go install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}

We only support the latest Go release and any Go beta or release candidate builds (currently Go 1.13.x or Go 1.14) in module mode. It might work in earlier Go versions or in GOPATH mode, but we're making no effort to keep those working.

Bugs

Please file any issues about this code or the hosted service on the issue tracker.
