  // sizeLimit is the total amount of local storage required for this EmptyDir volume.
  // The size limit is also applicable for memory medium.
  // The maximum usage on memory medium EmptyDir would be the minimum value between

- `kubelet` , when using `--cloud-provider=external`, will now initialize the node addresses...

- Added the `disable-force-detach` CLI option for `kube-controller-manager`. By default, it's set to `false`. When enabled, it prevents force detaching volumes based on maximum unmount time and node status. If activated, the non-graceful node shutdown feature must be used to recover from node failure. Additionally, if a pod needs to be forcibly terminated at the risk of corruption, the appropriate VolumeAttachment object...

  fix some problems, eg with HostPorts. ([#94474](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94474), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship)) [SIG Network and Node]
- Increase maximum IOPS of AWS EBS io1 volume to current maximum (64,000). ([#90014](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90014), [@jacobmarble](https://github.com/jacobmarble))

- Adds `\livez` for liveness health checking for kube-apiserver. Using the parameter `--maximum-startup-sequence-duration` will allow the liveness endpoint to defer boot-sequence failures for the specified duration period.

#### PodDisruptionBudget

  logs to populate the termination message if the user does not write to the
  termination message log file. The termination message file is now properly
  readable for end users and has a maximum size (4k bytes) to prevent abuse.
  Each pod may have up to 12k bytes of termination messages before the contents
  of each will be truncated.
* Do not delete pod objects until all its compute resource footprint has been

New alpha features include:
* Online volume resizing will increase the filesystem size of a resized volume without requiring a Pod restart.
* AWS EBS and GCE PD volumes support increased limits on the maximum number of attached volumes per node.
* Subpath volume directories can be created using DownwardAPI environment variables.

### SIG Windows

- Limits lease to have 1000 maximum attached objects. ([#98257](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98257), [@lingsamuel](https://github.com/lingsamuel))

### Bug or Regression

- Fixed a bug where a high churn of events was causing master instability by reducing the maximum number of objects (events) attached to a single etcd lease.
