# Bugs and Feature Requests

You can report bugs and feature requests to the Istio team in one of three places:

- [Product Bugs and Feature Requests](https://github.com/istio/istio/issues)
- [Documentation Bugs and Feature Requests](https://github.com/istio/istio.io/issues)
- [Community and Governance Issues](https://github.com/istio/community/issues)

For security vulnerabilities, please don't report a bug (which is public) and instead follow

# If you want to make a change in this file, edit the original one and run "make gen".

# The preview profile contains features that are experimental.
# This is intended to explore new features coming to Istio.
# Stability, security, and performance are not guaranteed - use at your own risk.

# Helm Profiles

This folder provides a variety of "profiles" for helm installation.
While a user can just explicitly pass this with `--values/-f`.

However, Istio also provides a feature to bundle these with the charts, which is convenient when installing from remote charts.
For details, see `copy-templates` Makefile target, and `manifests/zzz_profile.yaml`.

Any changes to this folder should have a `make copy-templates` applied afterwards.

// This is a sample chained plugin that supports multiple CNI versions. It
// parses prevResult according to the cniVersion
package plugin

import "errors"

// ErrNotImplemented is returned when a requested feature is not implemented.
var ErrNotImplemented = errors.New("not implemented")

// Program defines a method which programs iptables based on the parameters
// provided in Redirect.

# The demo profile enables a variety of things to try out Istio in non-production environments.
# * Lower resource utilization.
# * Some additional features are enabled by default; especially ones used in some tasks in istio.io.
# * More ports enabled on the ingress, which is used in some tasks.

This document outlines getting in new features after a new branch has been cut and the process for getting a PR
merged in before and after the first public release.

# Feature Freeze

One week before a release, the release branch goes into a state of code freeze. At this point only critical release
blocking bugs are addressed. Additional changes that are targeted for new features and capabilities will not be merged.

  // Absolute number is calculated from percentage by rounding up. This can not be 0.
