tailscaled init script doesn't create tun0

Hello, I installed “tailscale” application as a binary package in FreeBSD 13.2 running on RPi2. The architecture is arm7. When adding the the application to startup via `sysrc tailscaled_enable=\”YES\”` the application hangs because device tun0 is not being created. Once the device has been created manually, tailscaled will rename the device to “tailscale0”. The two existing flags “tailscaled_up_args” and “tailscaled_tun_dev” cannot be used to create the device. For the init to work as expected, I added these lines: ``` diff tailscaled /usr/local/etc/rc.d/tailscaled 67a68 > start_precmd="${name}_prestart" 70a72,80 > > > tailscaled_prestart() > { > if [ ! -c /dev/tun ]; then > logger -s -t tailscale "Interface /dev/tun0 not found. Creating /dev/tun0" > /sbin/ifconfig tun0 create > fi > } ``` I have no idea if this happens to other architectures and I’m not sure if this should be handled by the init script or the application itself.
