+
+## 4.0.0
+### Drivers
+The `driver` section has been reworked based on the following PR: https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/pull/2413. 
+It is an attempt to uniform how a driver is configured in Falco. 
+It also groups the configuration based on the driver type.
+Some of the drivers has been renamed:
+* kernel modules has been renamed from `module` to `kmod`;
+* the ebpf probe has not been changed. It's still `ebpf`;
+* the modern ebpf probe has been renamed from `modern-bpf` to `modern_ebpf`.
+
+The `gvisor` configuration has been moved under the `driver` section since it is considered a driver on its own.
+
+### K8s Collector
+The old Kubernetes client has been removed in Falco 0.37.0. For more info checkout this issue: https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/issues/2973#issuecomment-1877803422.
+The [k8s-metacollector](https://github.com/falcosecurity/k8s-metacollector) and [k8s-meta](https://github.com/falcosecurity/plugins/tree/master/plugins/k8smeta) substitute
+the old implementation. 
+
+The following resources needed by Falco to connect to the API server are no longer needed and has been removed from the chart:
+* service account;
+* cluster role;
+* cluster role binding.
+
+When the `collectors.kubernetes` is enabled the chart deploys the [k8s-metacollector](https://github.com/falcosecurity/k8s-metacollector) and configures Falco to load the
+[k8s-meta](https://github.com/falcosecurity/plugins/tree/master/plugins/k8smeta) plugin.
+
+By default, the `collectors.kubernetes.enabled` is off; for more info, see the following issue: https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/issues/2995.
+
+### Plugins
+The Falco docker image does not ship anymore the plugins: https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/pull/2997. 
+For this reason, the `resolveDeps` is now enabled in relevant values files (ie. `values-k8saudit.yaml`). 
+When installing `rulesfile` artifacts `falcoctl` will try to resolve its dependencies and install the required plugins.
+
+## 3.0.0
+The new chart deploys new *k8s* resources and new configuration variables have been added to the `values.yaml` file. People upgrading the chart from `v2.x.y` have to port their configuration variables to the new `values.yaml` file used by the `v3.0.0` chart.
+
+If you still want to use the old values, because you do not want to take advantage of the new and shiny **falcoctl** tool then just run:
+```bash=
+helm upgrade falco falcosecurity/falco \
+    --namespace=falco \
+    --reuse-values \
+    --set falcoctl.artifact.install.enabled=false \
+    --set falcoctl.artifact.follow.enabled=false
+```
+This way you will upgrade Falco to `v0.34.0`.
+
+**NOTE**: The new version of Falco itself, installed by the chart, does not introduce breaking changes. You can port your previous Falco configuration to the new `values.yaml` by copy-pasting it.
+
+
+### Falcoctl support
+
+[Falcoctl](https://github.com/falcosecurity/falcoctl) is a new tool born to automatize operations when deploying Falco.
+
+Before the `v3.0.0` of the charts *rulesfiles* and *plugins* were shipped bundled in the Falco docker image. It precluded the possibility to update the *rulesfiles* and *plugins* until a new version of Falco was released. Operators had to manually update the *rulesfiles or add new *plugins* to Falco. The process was cumbersome and error-prone. Operators had to create their own Falco docker images with the new plugins baked into it or wait for a new Falco release.
+
+Starting from the `v3.0.0` chart release, we add support for **falcoctl** in the charts. By deploying it alongside Falco it allows to:
+- *install* artifacts of the Falco ecosystem (i.e plugins and rules at the moment of writing)
+- *follow* those artifacts(only *rulesfile* artifacts are recommended), to keep them up-to-date with the latest releases of the Falcosecurity organization. This allows, for instance, to update rules detecting new vulnerabilities or security issues without the need to redeploy Falco.
+
+The chart deploys *falcoctl* using an *init container* and/or *sidecar container*. The first one is used to install artifacts and make them available to Falco at start-up time, the latter runs alongside Falco and updates the local artifacts when new updates are detected.
+
+ Based on your deployment scenario:
+
+1. Falco without *plugins* and you just want to upgrade to the new Falco version:
+    ```bash=
+    helm upgrade falco falcosecurity/falco \
+        --namespace=falco \
+        --reuse-values \
+        --set falcoctl.artifact.install.enabled=false \
+        --set falcoctl.artifact.follow.enabled=false
+    ```
+    When upgrading an existing release, *helm* uses the new chart version. Since we added new template files and changed the values schema(added new parameters) we explicitly disable the **falcoctl** tool. By doing so, the command will reuse the existing configuration but will deploy Falco version `0.34.0`
+
+2. Falco without *plugins* and you want to automatically get new *falco-rules* as soon as they are released:
+    ```bash=
+    helm upgrade falco falcosecurity/falco \
+        --namespace=falco \
+    ```
+    Helm first applies the values coming from the new chart version, then overrides them using the values of the previous release. The outcome is a new release of Falco that:
+    * uses the previous configuration;
+    * runs Falco version `0.34.0`;
+    * uses **falcoctl** to install and automatically update the [*falco-rules*](https://github.com/falcosecurity/rules/);
+    * checks for new updates every 6h (default value).
+
+
+3. Falco with *plugins* and you want just to upgrade Falco:
+    ```bash=
+    helm upgrade falco falcosecurity/falco \
+        --namespace=falco \
+        --reuse-values \
+        --set falcoctl.artifact.install.enabled=false \
+        --set falcoctl.artifact.follow.enabled=false
+    ```
+    Very similar to scenario `1.`
+4. Falco with plugins and you want to use **falcoctl** to download the plugins' *rulesfiles*:
+    * Save **falcoctl** configuration to file:
+        ```yaml=
+        cat << EOF > ./falcoctl-values.yaml

+    * Set `falcoctl.artifact.install.enabled=true` to install *rulesfiles* of the loaded plugins. Configure **falcoctl** to install the *rulesfiles* of the plugins you are loading with Falco. For example, if you are loading **k8saudit** plugin then you need to set `falcoctl.config.artifact.install.refs=[k8saudit-rules:0.5]`. When Falco is deployed the **falcoctl** init container will download the specified artifacts based on their tag.
+    * Set `falcoctl.artifact.follow.enabled=true` to keep updated *rulesfiles* of the loaded plugins.
+    * Proceed to upgrade your Falco release by running:
+        ```bash=
+        helm upgrade falco falcosecurity/falco \
+            --namespace=falco \
+            --reuse-values \
+            --values=./falcoctl-values.yaml
+        ```
+5. Falco with **multiple sources** enabled (syscalls + plugins):
+    1. Upgrading Falco to the new version:
+        ```bash=
+        helm upgrade falco falcosecurity/falco \
+            --namespace=falco \
+            --reuse-values \
+            --set falcoctl.artifact.install.enabled=false \
+            --set falcoctl.artifact.follow.enabled=false
+        ```
+    2. Upgrading Falco and leveraging **falcoctl** for rules and plugins. Refer to point 4. for **falcoctl** configuration.
+
+
+### Rulesfiles
+Starting from `v0.3.0`, the chart drops the bundled **rulesfiles**. The previous version was used to create a configmap containing the following **rulesfiles**:
+* application_rules.yaml
+* aws_cloudtrail_rules.yaml
+* falco_rules.local.yaml
+* falco_rules.yaml
+* k8s_audit_rules.yaml
+
+The reason why we are dropping them is pretty simple, the files are already shipped within the Falco image and do not apport any benefit. On the other hand, we had to manually update those files for each Falco release.
+
+For users out there, do not worry, we have you covered. As said before the **rulesfiles** are already shipped inside 
+the Falco image. Still, this solution has some drawbacks such as users having to wait for the next releases of Falco 
+to get the latest version of those **rulesfiles**.  Or they could manually update them by using the [custom rules](.
+/README.md#loading-custom-rules).
+
+We came up with a better solution and that is **falcoctl**. Users can configure the **falcoctl** tool to fetch and install the latest **rulesfiles** as provided by the *falcosecurity* organization. For more info, please check the **falcoctl** section.
+
+**NOTE**: if any user (wrongly) used to customize those files before deploying Falco please switch to using the 
+[custom rules](./README.md#loading-custom-rules).
+
+### Drop support for `falcosecurity/falco` image
+
+Starting from version `v2.0.0` of the chart the`falcosecurity/falco-no-driver` is the default image. We were still supporting the `falcosecurity/falco` image in `v2.0.0`. But in `v2.2.0` we broke the chart when using the `falcosecurity/falco` image. For more info please check out the following issue: https://github.com/falcosecurity/charts/issues/419
+
+#### Driver-loader simplified logic
+There is only one switch to **enable/disable** the driver-loader init container: driver.loader.enabled=true. This simplification comes as a direct consequence of dropping support for the `falcosecurity/falco` image. For more info: https://github.com/falcosecurity/charts/issues/418
