+## v4.8.3
+
+* The init container, when driver.kind=auto, automatically generates
+  a new Falco configuration file and selects the appropriate engine
+  kind based on the environment where Falco is deployed.
+
+  With this commit, along with falcoctl PR #630, the Helm charts now 
+  support different driver kinds for Falco instances based on the 
+  specific node they are running on. When driver.kind=auto is set,
+  each Falco instance dynamically selects the most suitable 
+  driver (e.g., ebpf, kmod, modern_ebpf) for the node.
