Except for <a href="#Constants">untyped strings</a>, if the sliced operand is a string or slice,
the result of the slice operation is a non-constant value of the same type as the operand.
For untyped string operands the result is a non-constant value of type <code>string</code>.
If the sliced operand is an array, it must be <a href="#Address_operators">addressable</a>
and the result of the slice operation is a slice with the same element type as the array.

- Significant kube-proxy performance improvements when using Endpoint Slices at scale. ([#83206](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83206), [@robscott](https://github.com/robscott))

### Node

- Endpoint slices mirroring controller no longer mirrors the last-applied-configuration annotation created by kubectl to updated endpoint slices ([#102731](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102731), [@sharmarajdaksh](https://github.com/sharmarajdaksh)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, Cloud Provider, Network, Release, Scheduling,...

- Endpoint slice controller now mirrors parent's service label to its corresponding endpoint slices. ([#94443](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94443), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

- Azure: avoid setting cached Sku when updating VMSS and VMSS instances ([#102005](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102005), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer)) [SIG Cloud Provider]
- Fix a bug on the endpoint slices mirroring controller where endpoint NotReadyAddresses were mirrored as Ready to the corresponding EndpointSlice ([#102683](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102683), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG Apps and Network]

- Introduced compressible resource setting on system reserved and kube reserved slices. ([#125982](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125982), [@harche](https://github.com/harche))

- Fixed a bug on the `EndpointSlice` mirroring controller that generated multiple slices in some cases for custom endpoints in non canonical format. ([#114155](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114155), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

- `klog` text output now uses JSON as encoding for structs, maps and slices. ([#117687](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117687), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))
- `kube-proxy` in iptables mode will now have separate `sync_full_proxy_rules_duration_seconds`\nand
