## v1.11.0

## v1.11.0-rc.1

### Note

- Deprecated flag `--imageSignatureRepository`. Will be removed in 1.12. Use per rule configuration `verifyImages.Repository` instead.
- Added `--aggregateReports` flag to reports controller to enable/disable aggregated reports (default value is `true`).

## v1.10.0

## v1.10.0-rc.1

### Note

- Removed `GenerateRequest` CRD.
- Refactored `kyverno` chart, migration instructions are available in chart `README.md`.
- Image references in the json context are not mutated to canonical form anymore, do not assume a registry domain is always present.
- Added support for configuring webhook annotations in the config map through `webhookAnnotations` stanza.
- Added `excludeRoles` and `excludeClusterRoles` support in configuration.
- Added new flag `skipResourceFilters` to reports controller to enable/disable considering resource filters in the background (default value is `true`)
- Removed hardcoded defaults for `excludeGroups` and `excludeUsernames`. They are always read from the config map.

## v1.9.0-rc.1

### Note

- Flag `backgroundScanInterval` was added to force background scans at regular intervals (default value is `1h`).
- Flag `splitPolicyReport` was removed, was unused and marked for removal in 1.9.
- Webhook is no longer updated to match `pods/ephemeralcontainers` when policy only specifies `pods`. If users want to match on `pods/ephemeralcontainers`, they must specify `pods/ephemeralcontainers` in the policy.
- Webhook is no longer updated to match `services/status` when policy only specifies `services`. If users want to match on `services/status`, they must specify `services/status` in the policy.
- Flag `autogenInternals` was removed, policy mutation has been removed.
- Flag `leaderElectionRetryPeriod` was added to control leader election renewal frequency (default value is `2s`).
- Support upper case `Audit` and `Enforce` in `.spec.validationFailureAction` of the Kyverno policy, failure actions `audit` and `enforce` are deprecated and will be removed in `v1.11.0`.
- Flag `profileAddress` was added to configure address of profiling server (default value is `""`).

## v1.8.1-rc3

### Note

- A new flag `backgroundScanWorkers` to configure the number of background scan workers (default value is `2`).

## v1.8.0-rc3

### Note

- A new flag `backgroundScan` to enable/disable kyverno background scans (default value is `true`). When this is set to `false`, kyverno will not perform background scans and won't trigger continuous evaluation of policies.
- A new flag `admissionReports` to enable/disable kyverno admission reports (default value is `true`). When this is set to `false`, kyverno will not create admission reports.
- If both `backgroundScan` and  `admissionReports` are set to `false` the entire reports system will be disabled.
- A new flag `reportsChunkSize` to split reports according to the number of results contained in the report (default value is `1000`). This can be disabled by setting the flag value to `0`.
- Deprecated `splitPolicyReport` flag, splitting reports per policy is always enabled, keeping it for backward compatibility, will be removed in future version.
- `ReportChangeRequest` and `ClusterReportChangeRequest` CRDs have been removed and replaced by `AdmissionReport`, `ClusterAdmissionReport`, `BackgroundScanReport` and `ClusterBackgroundScanReport` CRDs.

## v1.8.0-rc1

### Note

- A new flag `protectManagedResources` to enable kyverno managed resources protection (default value is `false`). When this is enabled, kyverno managed resources can only be modified or deleted by the controller.

## v1.7.2-rc2

### Note

- A new flag `maxQueuedEvents` is added to the Kyverno main container, this flag sets the up-limit of the events that are queued internally.

## v1.7.2-rc1

### Note

- A new flag `maxReportChangeRequests` is added to the Kyverno main container, this flag sets the up-limit of reportchangerequests that a namespace can take, or clusterreportchangerequests if matching kinds are cluster-wide resources. The default limit is set to 1000, and it's recommended to configure it to a small threshold on large clusters. Here the large clusters are considered that a policy report has more than 1k results. 

## v1.7.0-rc1

### Note

- `status.ready` of the policy is deprecated in favor of `policy.IsReady()`. The implementation was changed to use `status.conditions` that offer more flexibility. The `status.ready` will be kept for a couple of releases until we remove it in the future.
- Deprecated flags have been removed.
- Flags that were overlapping with config map based configuration were removed (`filterK8sResources`, `excludeGroupRole`, `excludeUsername`). They can now be configured using the config map only.

## v1.6.0-rc1
### Note
- Helm charts are changed to enforce PodDisruptionBudget for multi-replica clusters and PDB is removed from install manifests.
- `anyPattern` for Kyverno validate policies breaks in Kubernetes `v1.23.0`-`v1.23.2`, and the fix is being tracked by this [PR](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/107688) and will be available in `v1.23.3`.
- To use `any/all` conditions for policies that use `preconditons` and `deny.conditions`, the user can go to this [resource](https://kyverno.io/docs/writing-policies/preconditions/#any-and-all-statements) as a good starting point.
## v1.5.0-rc1
### Note
- The Helm CRDs was switched back to kyverno chart. To upgrade using Helm, please refer to https://github.com/kyverno/website/pull/304.
- With the change of dynamic webhooks, the readiness of the policy is reflected by `.status.ready`, When ready, it means the policy is ready to serve the admission requests.

### Deprecation
- To add a consistent style in flag names the following flags have been deprecated `webhooktimeout`, `gen-workers`,`disable-metrics`, `background-scan`, `auto-update-webhooks`, `profile-port`, `metrics-port` these will be removed in 1.6.0. The new flags are `webhookTimeout`, `genWorkers`, `disableMetrics`, `backgroundScan`, `autoUpdateWebhooks`,`profilePort`, `metricsPort` (#1991).
