I have a pod with a sidecar. The sidecar does file synchronisation and is optional. However it seems that if the sidecar crashes, the whole pod becomes unavailable. I want the pod to continue serving requests even if its sidecar crashed. Is this doable?

Set pod's restartPolicy to Never. It will prevent the kubelet from restarting your pod even if one of your containers failed.
If a Pod is running and has two Containers. Container 1 exits with failure. If the
restartPolicyit set toNever, the kubelet will not restart Container and the Pod's phase stays Running.
