- Since golang 1.17 both net.ParseIP and net.ParseCIDR rejects leading zeros in the dot-decimal notation of IPv4 addresses,
  Kubernetes will keep allowing leading zeros on IPv4 address to not break the compatibility.
  IMPORTANT: Kubernetes interprets leading zeros on IPv4 addresses as decimal, users must not rely on parser alignment to not being impacted by the associated security advisory:

Federated Jobs that are automatically deployed to multiple clusters
are now supported. Cluster selection and weighting determine how Job
parallelism and completions are spread across clusters. Federated Job
status reflects the aggregate status across all underlying cluster
jobs.

#### [alpha] Federated Horizontal Pod Autoscaling (HPA)

Federated HPAs are similar to the traditional Kubernetes HPAs, except

  // Message written is intended to be brief final status, such as an assertion failure message.
  // Will be truncated by the node if greater than 4096 bytes. The total message length across
  // all containers will be limited to 12kb.
  // Defaults to /dev/termination-log.
  // Cannot be updated.
  // +optional

  Multi vCenter support is deprecated as of v1.21. If you have a Kubernetes cluster spanning across multiple vCenter servers, please consider moving all k8s nodes to a single vCenter Server. vSphere CSI Driver does not support Kubernetes deployment spanning across multiple vCenter servers.

exposes a second, independent pruning alpha powered by a new standard named `ApplySets`. An `ApplySet` is a server-side object (by default, a Secret; ConfigMaps are also allowed) that kubectl can use to accurately and efficiently track set membership across `apply` operations. The format used for `ApplySet` is set out in  [KEP 3659](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3659) as a low-level specification.  Other tools in the ecosystem can also build on this specification for improved interoperability....

Instantiation proceeds in two steps:

<li>
Each type argument is substituted for its corresponding type parameter in the generic
declaration.
This substitution happens across the entire function or type declaration,
including the type parameter list itself and any types in that list.
