With Kubernetes 1.24, the [gRPC probes functionality](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/2727)
has entered beta and is available by default. You can now [configure startup, liveness, and readiness probes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#configure-probes) for your gRPC app
natively within Kubernetes, without exposing an HTTP endpoint or
using an extra executable.

* Azure cloudprovider: Fix controller manager crash issue on a manually created k8s cluster. ([#53694](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53694), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))
* Fix kubelet reset liveness probe failure count across pod restart boundaries. ([#46371](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46371), [@sjenning](https://github.com/sjenning))



# v1.6.11

* Free up CPU and memory requested but unused by Metrics Server Pod Nanny. ([#57252](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57252), [@kawych](https://github.com/kawych))
* Configurable liveness probe initial delays for etcd and kube-apiserver in GCE ([#57749](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57749), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

    * Bump metadata agent version to 0.2-0.0.21-1.
    * Expand the metadata agent's access to all API groups.
    * Remove metadata agent config maps in favor of command line flags.
    * Update the metadata agent's liveness probe to a new /healthz handler.
    * Logging Agent Improvements
    * Bump logging agent version to 0.2-1.5.33-1-k8s-1.
    * Appropriately set log severity for k8s_container.

  honor the specified `scheme` and `headers` fields. This enables setting custom
  headers and changing the scheme to `HTTPS`, consistent with container
  startup/readiness/liveness probe capabilities. Lifecycle handlers configured
  with `scheme: HTTPS` that encounter errors indicating the endpoint is actually
  using HTTP fall back to making the request over HTTP for compatibility with
