components have identical types. In detail:
</p>

<ul>
	<li>Two array types are identical if they have identical element types and
	    the same array length.</li>

	<li>Two slice types are identical if they have identical element types.</li>

	<li>Two struct types are identical if they have the same sequence of fields,
	    and if corresponding pairs of fields have the same names, identical types,

* Nodes can now report two additional address types in their status: InternalDNS
  and ExternalDNS. The apiserver can use --kubelet-preferred-address-types to
  give priority to the type of address it uses to reach nodes.

### Bug or Regression

- Fix missing delete events on informer re-lists to ensure all delete events are correctly emitted and using the latest known object state, so that all event handlers and stores always reflect the actual apiserver state as best as possible ([#115900](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115900), [@odinuge](https://github.com/odinuge)) [SIG API Machinery]

## Changelog since v1.4.4

### Other notable changes

* Fix volume states out of sync problem after kubelet restarts ([#33616](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/33616), [@jingxu97](https://github.com/jingxu97))

* update list of vailable resources ([#32687](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/32687), [@jouve](https://github.com/jouve))

- Types: Code and Status moved from pkg/scheduler/framework to staging repo.
  Users should update import path for these types from `k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/scheduler/framework` to `k8s.io/kube-scheduler/framework`. ([#132087](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132087), [@ania-borowiec](https://github.com/ania-borowiec)) [SIG Node, Scheduling, Storage and Testing]

changes, most of which are rare use cases, bug fixes with side effects, or things that have been deprecated for multiple releases already:
  
  - https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kustomize/pull/4911: Drop support for a very old, legacy style of patches. patches used to be allowed to be used as an alias for patchesStrategicMerge in kustomize v3. You now have to use patchesStrategicMerge explicitly, or update to the new syntax supported by patches. See examples in the PR description of ...

### **Network**

#### **IPv6**

*   [alpha] IPv6 support has been added. Notable IPv6 support details include:
    *   Support for IPv6-only Kubernetes cluster deployments. **<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Note:</span>** This feature does not provide dual-stack support.
    *   Support for IPv6 Kubernetes control and data planes.
    *   Support for Kubernetes IPv6 cluster deployments using kubeadm.

- Replace scale down forbidden window with scale down stabilization window. Rather than waiting a fixed period of time between scale downs HPA now scales down to the highest recommendation it during the scale down stabilization window. ([#68122](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68122), [@krzysztof-jastrzebski](https://github.com/krzysztof-jastrzebski))

- `kube-proxy`: Added an option/flag for configuring the `nf_conntrack_tcp_be_liberal` sysctl (in the kernel's netfilter conntrack subsystem).  When enabled, `kube-proxy` will not install the `DROP` rule for invalid conntrack states, which currently breaks users of asymmetric routing.
