Comment 1 Simone Tiraboschi 2021-05-11 15:23:40 UTC
Fabian, we explicitly removed the sidecar feature gate considering it a secure hole.
The user can optionally enable it with kubevirt.kubevirt.io/jsonpatch annotation and this will taint the product with a condition like:
 {
   ...
   "message": "Unsupported feature was activated via an HCO annotation",
   "reason": "UnsupportedFeatureAnnotation",
   "status": "True",
   "type": "TaintedConfiguration"
 }

do you think we should consider the sidecar feature gate as a properly supported feature and expose and document an API for it?

Comment 2 Simone Tiraboschi 2021-05-13 11:30:12 UTC
The sidecar feature gate is not something that we want to officially support, it can still be enabled and tested/consumed using the kubevirt.kubevirt.io/jsonpatch annotation on HCO CR.

Closing this as WONTFIX
