- Kubernetes no longer monitors firewalld. On systems using firewalld for firewall
  maintenance, kube-proxy will take slightly longer to recover from disruptive
  firewalld operations that delete kube-proxy's iptables rules.

  As a side effect of these changes, kube-proxy's
  `sync_proxy_rules_last_timestamp_seconds` metric no longer behaves the

 - The metric `storage_operation_errors_total` is not removed, but is marked deprecated, and the metric `storage_operation_status_count` is marked deprecated. In both cases the `storage_operation_duration_seconds` metric can be used to recover equivalent counts (using `status=fail-unknown` in the case of `storage_operations_errors_total`).

- Fixed bug in reflector that couldn't recover from `Too large resource version` errors with API servers before 1.17.0. ([#115093](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115093), [@xuzhenglun](https://github.com/xuzhenglun))

`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 must be deleted.
