- Controller-manager: the following flags have no effect and would be removed in v1.24:
  - `--port`
  - `--address`
  The insecure port flags `--port` may only be set to 0 now.
- Kube-scheduler: the `--port` and `--address` flags have no effect and would be removed in v1.24.
  The insecure port flags `--port` may only be set to 0 now.

* The Kubelet now explicitly registers all of its command-line flags with an internal flagset, which prevents flags from third party libraries from unintentionally leaking into the Kubelet's command-line API. Many unintentionally leaked flags are now marked deprecated, so that users have a chance to migrate away from them before they are removed. In addition, one previously leaked flag, --cloud-provi...

### kubeadm
* Quite a few flags been renamed or removed.  Those options that are removed as flags can still be accessed via the config file.  Most notably this includes external etcd settings and the option for setting the cloud provider on the API server.  The [kubeadm reference documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/kubeadm/) is up to date with the new flags.

* The following deprecated flags were removed from `kube-controller-manager`:

  * `replication-controller-lookup-cache-size`
  * `replicaset-lookup-cache-size`
  * `daemonset-lookup-cache-size`

  Don't use these flags. Using deprecated flags causes the server to print a warning. Using a removed flag causes the server to abort the startup.

* The following deprecated flags were removed from `kubelet`:

- Fixed missing flags in `-controller-manager --help`. ([#71298](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71298), [@stewart-yu](https://github.com/stewart-yu))
- Fixed missing flags in `kube-apiserver --help`. ([#70204](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70204), [@imjching](https://github.com/imjching))

- Kubeadm: only enable the klog flags that are still supported for kubeadm, rather than hiding the unwanted flags. This means that the previously unrecommended hidden flags about klog (including `--alsologtostderr`, `--log-backtrace-at`, `--log-dir`, `--logtostderr`, `--log-file`, `--log-file-max-size`, `--one-output`, `--skip-log-headers`, `--stderrthreshold`...

the same purpose. For `init` and `join` it is now recommended that you migrate to configure patches via `{Init|Join}Configuration.patches.directory`. For the time being, these flags can be mixed with `--config`, but that might change in the future. On a command line, the last *patches flag takes precedence over previous flags and the value in config. `kubeadm upgrade --patches` will continue to be the only available option, since `upgrade` does not support a configuration file yet.
