* fixed foreground deletion of podtemplates ([#60683](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60683), [@nilebox](https://github.com/nilebox))

Additionally, a background task is normally an independent set of logic that should be handled separately, with its own resources (e.g. its own database connection).

yields a function equivalent to <code>Mv</code> but
with an explicit receiver as its first argument; it has signature
</p>

<pre>
func(tv T, a int) int
</pre>

<p>
That function may be called normally with an explicit receiver, so
these five invocations are equivalent:
</p>

<pre>
t.Mv(7)
T.Mv(t, 7)
(T).Mv(t, 7)
f1 := T.Mv; f1(t, 7)
f2 := (T).Mv; f2(t, 7)
</pre>

LBs with externalTrafficPolicy=Local when node readiness changes (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/111539). The service controller (in cloud-controller-manager) will avoid resyncing nodes which are transitioning between `Ready` / `NotReady` (only for ETP=Local Services).  The LBs used for these services will solely rely on the health check probe defined by the `healthCheckNodePort` to determine if a particular node is to be used for traffic load balancing.

  // the unrelated PVC is removed. If such a pre-created PVC is
