Functions

func MakeLookupFunc

func MakeLookupFunc(logf logger.Logf, netMon *netmon.Monitor) func(ctx context.Context, host string) ([]netip.Addr, error)

MakeLookupFunc creates a function that can be used to resolve hostnames (e.g. as a LookupIPFallback from dnscache.Resolver). The netMon parameter is optional; if non-nil it's used to do faster interface lookups.

func SetCachePath

func SetCachePath(path string, logf logger.Logf)

SetCachePath sets the path to the on-disk DERP map cache that we store and update. Additionally, if a file at this path exists, we load it and merge it with the DERP map baked into the binary.

This function should be called before any calls to UpdateCache, as it is not concurrency-safe.

func UpdateCache

func UpdateCache(c *tailcfg.DERPMap, logf logger.Logf)

UpdateCache stores the DERP map cache back to disk.

The caller must not mutate 'c' after calling this function.
