- HTTP/2 connection health check is enabled by default in all Kubernetes clients. The feature should work out-of-the-box. If needed, users can tune the feature via the HTTP2_READ_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS and HTTP2_PING_TIMEOUT_SECONDS environment variables. The feature is disabled if HTTP2_READ_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS is set to 0. ([#96778](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96778), [@cae...

allows multiple instances of policy/control/telemetry - so testing/staging of new settings and versions can be performed by a different role than the prod version. The intended users of this repo are users running Istio in production who want to select, tune and understand each binary that gets deployed, and select which combination to use. Note: each component can be installed in parallel with an existing Istio 1.0 or 1.1 installation in `istio-system`. The new components will not interfere with existing...

*   You can now add "options" to the host's /etc/resolv.conf (or --resolv-conf), and they will be copied into pod's resolv.conf when dnsPolicy is Default. Being able to customize options is important because it is common to leverage options to fine-tune the behavior of DNS client.

and may explain why type inference fails in unusual code situations.
But by and large these rules can be ignored when writing Go code:
type inference is designed to mostly "work as expected",
and the unification rules are fine-tuned accordingly.

Type unification is controlled by a <i>matching mode</i>, which may
be <i>exact</i> or <i>loose</i>.
As unification recursively descends a composite type structure,
