+# Volume Snapshot Topology Feature
+
+## Status
+
+<!--
+TODO BEFORE MERGE: sidecar versions below are the anticipated next minor releases and
+are provisional. The external-snapshotter and external-provisioner changes are still
+under review upstream and not yet merged/tagged; update these once the releases carrying
+this feature are cut.

+
+## Overview
+
+Some storage systems expose snapshots that are not equally accessible from all
+nodes in a Kubernetes cluster. For example, in a multi-zone cluster where storage
+is not shared across zones, a snapshot of a volume in one zone is only usable from
+that same zone: volumes restored from the snapshot can only be created and attached
+where the snapshot data actually resides.
+
+Before this feature, Kubernetes had no way to record or honor where a snapshot is
+usable from. A volume restored from a snapshot could be provisioned in a topology
+segment where the snapshot data does not exist, leaving the volume unschedulable or
+the restore failing at the storage layer.
+
+The Volume Snapshot Topology feature (KEP-5943) lets a CSI driver report where a
+snapshot is usable from, records it on the `VolumeSnapshotContent` object, and honors
+it when provisioning a volume from the snapshot.
+
+A snapshot is "usable from" a topology segment if a volume created from that snapshot
+is accessible there.
+
+## Implementing Snapshot Topology in your CSI Driver
+
+To support snapshot topology, a CSI driver MUST:
+
+* Advertise the `SNAPSHOT_ACCESSIBILITY_CONSTRAINTS` plugin capability.
+* Populate `accessible_topology` on the `Snapshot` message returned from
+  `CreateSnapshot`, describing where the snapshot is usable from.
+
+The driver MAY also honor `accessibility_requirements` passed in the
+`CreateSnapshotRequest` when the storage system can choose where a snapshot is
+created. `accessibility_requirements` reuses the existing `TopologyRequirement`
+`requisite`/`preferred` semantics from volume provisioning so there is no separate
+negotiation mechanism.
+
+For details, see the [CSI spec](https://github.com/container-storage-interface/spec/blob/master/spec.md).
+
+## API
+
+When the feature is enabled, `VolumeSnapshotContent.spec` gains a `nodeAffinity`
+field (`[]TopologySelectorTerm`) describing where the snapshot is usable from. The
+field is optional and mutable.
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1
+kind: VolumeSnapshotContent
+metadata:
+  name: snapcontent-72d9a349-aacd-42d2-a240-d775650d2455
+spec:
+  deletionPolicy: Delete
+  driver: hostpath.csi.k8s.io
+  source:
+    volumeHandle: ee0cfb94-f8d4-11e9-b2d8-0242ac110002
+  volumeSnapshotClassName: csi-hostpath-snapclass
+  volumeSnapshotRef:
+    name: new-snapshot-test
+    namespace: default
+  nodeAffinity:
+    - matchLabelExpressions:
+        - key: topology.kubernetes.io/zone
+          values:
+            - us-east-1a
+```
+
+A cluster administrator can request where dynamically created snapshots should be
+usable from by setting `allowedTopologies` on the `VolumeSnapshotClass`:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: snapshot.storage.k8s.io/v1
+kind: VolumeSnapshotClass
+metadata:
+  name: csi-hostpath-snapclass
+driver: hostpath.csi.k8s.io
+deletionPolicy: Delete
+allowedTopologies:
+  - matchLabelExpressions:
+      - key: topology.kubernetes.io/zone
+        values:
+          - us-east-1a
+          - us-east-1b
+```
+
+## Controller
+
+* The csi-snapshotter sidecar forwards `VolumeSnapshotClass.allowedTopologies` to the
+  driver as `CreateSnapshotRequest.accessibility_requirements`, and records the
+  driver-returned `accessible_topology` on `VolumeSnapshotContent.spec.nodeAffinity`.
+
+When provisioning a volume from a snapshot, `VolumeSnapshotContent.spec.nodeAffinity`
+is used to place the restored volume where the snapshot data is accessible:
+
+* For `Immediate` binding, the external-provisioner intersects the snapshot's
+  `nodeAffinity` with `StorageClass.allowedTopologies` and provisions in the
+  intersection. If the intersection is empty, provisioning fails fast with an event
+  rather than creating a volume in an inaccessible segment.
+* For `WaitForFirstConsumer` binding, the scheduler restricts the pod (and therefore
+  the volume) to nodes that satisfy the snapshot's `nodeAffinity`, using the
+  out-of-tree `SnapshotTopology` scheduler plugin.
+
+## Feature Gate
+
+The feature is alpha and disabled by default. Enable the `VolumeSnapshotTopology`
+feature gate on the csi-snapshotter and external-provisioner sidecars:
+
+```
+--feature-gates=VolumeSnapshotTopology=true
+```
+
+When the gate is off, `VolumeSnapshotContent.spec.nodeAffinity` is never populated
+and is ignored by the external-provisioner, preserving prior behavior.
+
+## Scheduler Plugin
+
+`Immediate`-binding enforcement is handled entirely by the external-provisioner and
+needs no extra components. `WaitForFirstConsumer` enforcement, however, happens at
+scheduling time and requires the out-of-tree `SnapshotTopology` scheduler plugin from
+[kubernetes-sigs/scheduler-plugins](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/scheduler-plugins).
+
+The plugin implements the `PreFilter` and `Filter` extension points: it resolves a
+pod's snapshot-sourced PVC to its `VolumeSnapshotContent`, reads the recorded
+`nodeAffinity`, and filters out nodes that do not satisfy it, so the volume is
+provisioned only where the snapshot data is accessible.
+
+To use it, run a scheduler built with the `SnapshotTopology` plugin enabled in its
+profile (either as your cluster's scheduler or as a second scheduler), and set
+`schedulerName` on the pods that restore from topology-constrained snapshots. See the
+[scheduler-plugins installation guide](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/scheduler-plugins/blob/master/doc/install.md)
+for how to deploy and configure a scheduler-plugins scheduler.
+
+Unlike the sidecars, the scheduler plugin is not toggled by the
+`VolumeSnapshotTopology` feature gate; enforcement is controlled by whether the plugin
+is present in the scheduler profile.
+
+## Kubernetes Cluster Setup
+
+See the Deployment section of [Snapshot Controller](snapshot-controller.md) on how
+to set up the snapshot controller and CRDs.
+
+## Examples
+
+See the [Drivers](drivers.md) for a list of CSI drivers that implement the snapshot
+feature.
