<p>How can I configure something so that the injected istio sidecar uses the recent kubernetes container lifecycle of sidecar? The sidecar lifecycle is discussed <a href="https://medium.com/@chan_seeker/sidecar-containers-improvement-in-kubernetes-1-18-b5eb66ee2b83" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> and <a href="https://banzaicloud.com/blog/k8s-sidecars/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>. More specifically is there an annotation similar to <code>sidecar.istio.io/inject: &quot;true&quot;</code>, or some other attributes in a CRD, that can do this? I am using istio 1.6. Thank you.</p>

<p>The mentioned Kubernetes sidecar proposal was withdrawn. So there is no support for that, neither in Istio 1.6 nor in more recent versions.</p>
