Hi @dongjiang1989. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Configmap can be updated, and what is the behavior when someone changed the configmap? Does this mean that kubelet should change the mountPath accordingly? It is weird to me.

+1, we shouldn't decouple environment variables from the pod itself, this seems dangerous and not a good design.


#### Story 1

I used a configMap to store the mount path value, but when i call in my pod it doesn't work it seems that the mountPath property can not be assigned to an env variable.

Maybe you can achieve something similar using an initContainer. The initContainer can write the required paths from specific ConfigMaps to a particular path within the pod, and the application container can directly read the required paths from that specific path.
