* kubelets that specify `--cloud-provider` now only report addresses in Node status as determined by the cloud provider ([#65594](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65594), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
   * kubelet serving certificate rotation now reacts to changes in reported node addresses, and will request certificates for addresses set by an external cloud provider

is available everywhere in the cluster and has infinite capacity. Topology constraints addressed the first point, but up to now pod scheduling was still done without considering that the remaining storage capacity may not be enough to start a new pod. [Storage capacity tracking](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/tree/master/keps/sig-storage/1472-storage-capacity-tracking), a new alpha feature, addresses that by adding an API for a CSI driver to report storage capacity and uses that information...

- `kubelet` , when using `--cloud-provider=external`, will now initialize the node addresses with the value of `--node-ip` , if it exists, or waits for the cloud provider to assign the addresses. ([#121028](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121028), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

- When the `StrictIPCIDRValidation` feature gate is enabled, Kubernetes will be
  slightly stricter about what values will be accepted as IP addresses and network
  address ranges (“CIDR blocks”).
  
  In particular, octets within IPv4 addresses are not allowed to have any leading
  `0`s, and IPv4-mapped IPv6 values (e.g. `::ffff:192.168.0.1`) are forbidden.

### Failing Test

- Kubelet: the HostPort implementation in dockershim was not taking into consideration the HostIP field, causing that the same HostPort can not be used with different IP addresses.

- The pod phase lifecycle guarantees that terminal Pods, those whose states are Unready or Succeeded, can not regress and will have all container stopped. Hence, terminal Pods will never be reachable and should not publish their IP addresses on the Endpoints or EndpointSlices, independently of the Service TolerateUnready option.

* Only use the first IP address got from instance metadata. This is because Azure CNI would set up a list of IP addresses in instance metadata, while only the first one is the Node's IP. ([#71736](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71736), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))
