Much of this work is AXIS OS 13 preparation. Of the OS 13 breaking
changes, all are now addressed except one: recompiled against the
updated SDK for 64-bit time (Y2038), migrated to Manifest Schema v2
with declared OS compatibility, audited all binaries for executable
stack (all clean, GNU_STACK rw-), and verified the web UI end to end
over HTTPS. The only outstanding item is signing through the Axis
ACAP Portal, pending a registered vendorId.
The four ACAP 4 variants (aarch64, armv7hf, and their ROOT versions)
carried byte-identical copies of the C bridge, run script, web UI, and
Makefile per architecture, diverging only between standard and ROOT.
Merge them into a single common/app/ tree:
- param_bridge.c: proxy-port parameters gated behind -DHAS_PROXY_PORTS
(set via EXTRA_CFLAGS in the standard Dockerfiles); ROOT builds omit
them as before
- Tailscale_VPN_run: variant passed as $1 ("standard"/"root") selects
userspace vs kernel networking, port-collision checks, and IP
forwarding for advertised routes
- index.html: detects proxy support at runtime from the settings
response, hiding the proxy card and keeping the params out of save
requests on ROOT builds (fixes ROOT UI always showing proxy fields
and falsely reporting save errors)
Standard variants move to ACAP Native SDK 12.10.0 and Manifest Schema
v2 (vendorId, compatibleOsVersions); verified installable and working
on OS 10.12, 11.11, and 12.10, so OS 13 readiness costs no backward
compatibility. ROOT variants intentionally stay on SDK 1.15.1 since
OS 12+ never runs root apps.
All builds (including arm_acap3) now use the repository root as build
context with -f <variant>/Dockerfile; CI updated accordingly and a
.dockerignore added to keep the context lean. Tailscale binaries are
no longer tracked in git; *.eap outputs are now gitignored.
README: correct the standard variant's floor to OS 10.12+ and ROOT to
10.12-11.x (both live-verified), update build/update instructions for
the shared tree, and check off completed OS 13 readiness items.
- Set vendor to "Mo3he" and vendorUrl to GitHub repo in all manifest.json
files to avoid implying Tailscale Inc. endorsement (Clause 3)
- Add Tailscale third-party notice to README.md
- Add attribution/disclaimer footer to docs/index.html
