kata-irc-bot<dgibson> In general the privileged flag is a bad idea for Kata containers01:19
kata-irc-bot<dgibson> it's not really clear what the semantics should be01:19
kata-irc-bot<dgibson> to the extent that it's defined now, it's in terms of *host* privileges, which doesn't really make sense for a Kata container01:20
kata-irc-bot<dgibson> in particular passing through all the devices is extremely complex - maybe impossible01:20
kata-irc-bot<dgibson> since Kata needs to handle each type of device differently01:20
kata-irc-bot<dgibson> privileged has been abused in some cases to describe privileges w.r.t. the guest01:21
kata-irc-bot<dgibson> but it's not really clear what that should mean either01:21
kata-irc-bot<eric.ernst> Yep. That was part of the reason the flag was added in CRI to not pass host devices in case of priv. In general….:. Don't use privileged. 03:25
kata-irc-bot<dgibson> From the k8s side, privileged containers are often used for managing things on the host side, which is fundamentally not possible with kata containers06:01
