## Changelog since v1.5.0-alpha.1

### Action Required

* Deprecate the --reconcile-cidr kubelet flag because it has no function anymore ([#35523](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/35523), [@luxas](https://github.com/luxas))

  * Add ip-masq-agent addon to the addons folder which is used in GCE if `--non-masquerade-cidr` is set to 0/0 ([#46038](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46038), [@dnardo](https://github.com/dnardo))

### Documentation

- Fixes connection errors when using `--volume-host-cidr-denylist` or `--volume-host-allow-local-loopback` ([#98436](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98436), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG Network and Storage]

* Avoid panic when failing to allocate a Cloud CIDR (aka GCE Alias IP Range).  ([#58186](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58186), [@negz](https://github.com/negz))

- Added a new IPAddress object kind
  - Added a new ClusterIP allocator. The new allocator removes previous Service CIDR block size limitations for IPv4, and limits IPv6 size to a /64 ([#115075](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115075), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, Auth, CLI, Cluster Lifecycle, Network and Testing]
