II. Issues

2.1 Top 5 Active Issues:

We consider active issues to be issues that that have been commented on most frequently within the last week. Bot comments are omitted.

1. [KIND/FEATURE] [SIG/CLI] [NEEDS-TRIAGE] Kubectl apply does not remove manually added env vars, causing permanent drift between manifest and live Deployment: This issue describes a scenario where using kubectl apply to manage Kubernetes Deployments does not remove environment variables that were manually added via kubectl edit, resulting in persistent configuration drift between the manifest and the live Deployment. The user expects kubectl apply to enforce the manifest as the single source of truth by removing any environment variables not present in the manifest, but currently, the three-way merge strategy used by kubectl apply preserves such manual changes, causing challenges in GitOps workflows.

   • The comments clarify that this behavior is expected due to the three-way merge strategy of kubectl apply, which intentionally preserves fields added by other actors; kubectl replace is suggested as an alternative for full replacement but is not ideal for production due to its disruptive nature. The discussion confirms there is no current or planned support for an opt-in mechanism to make lists like environment variables authoritative during apply, and the issue is recommended to be closed with the understanding that kubectl replace is the supported method for removing manually added fields.
   • Number of comments this week: 6

2. [KIND/FEATURE] [SIG/RELEASE] [NEEDS-TRIAGE] setcap build image shouldn't require a shell: This issue proposes modifying the setcap build image so that it does not require a shell to run the setcap command, aiming to simplify the image by removing unnecessary dependencies and making it more minimal. The suggested change involves using an exec form of the RUN command in the Dockerfile to avoid shell expansion and thus eliminate the need for a shell in the setcap image, potentially reducing its size and attack surface.

   • The comments discuss the trade-offs of removing the shell, noting that while it is beneficial for production images to be minimal and secure, the build-time environment heavily relies on the shell, making the change less impactful. Contributors acknowledge the usefulness of the patch but question its practical benefits, and one user shares a minimal setcap image they built, highlighting the size difference compared to the current image.
   • Number of comments this week: 6

3. [KIND/FEATURE] [SIG/TESTING] [NEEDS-TRIAGE] Feature Request: Use e2e --prefix flag to identify namespaces/resources created by an e2e run: This issue requests enabling the existing e2e framework --prefix flag to be applied to namespaces created during end-to-end test execution, allowing all resources created by a specific e2e run to be deterministically identified. This enhancement aims to provide a reliable mechanism for downstream CI systems and long-running clusters to identify and clean up leftover resources that currently affect cluster state due to the lack of a common identifier.

   • The comments clarify that the e2e tests are intended for disposable clusters and not supported on long-running clusters, and the issue is not currently accepted; contributors express willingness to help but are directed to official guidelines, while the core problem of leftover resources after e2e runs is acknowledged.
   • Number of comments this week: 5

4. [KIND/BUG] [SIG/STORAGE] [NEEDS-TRIAGE] NewUnmounter always returns error while deleting pod after node reboot: This issue describes a problem where the NewUnmounter function always returns an error when attempting to delete a pod's volume after a node reboot, due to the volume directory having already been removed. The user expects NewUnmounter to handle the case where the volume directory does not exist gracefully, preventing the pod from being stuck in a terminating state.

   • The comments primarily consist of maintainers tagging relevant SIGs and individuals for awareness and assignment, indicating the issue is recognized and being routed to the appropriate team for triage and resolution.
   • Number of comments this week: 4

5. [KIND/FEATURE] [NEEDS-TRIAGE] [WG/DEVICE-MANAGEMENT] Let DRA drivers specify the order in which devices are considered during scheduling: This issue requests the ability for DRA drivers to specify the order in which devices are considered during scheduling, addressing the current non-deterministic order that affects scheduling time and device selection. The goal is to enable faster scheduling and more appropriate device allocation by allowing control over the device consideration sequence.

   • The comments show that the issue has been acknowledged and assigned to a contributor who is already working on a fix, with the device management working group also being tagged for involvement.
   • Number of comments this week: 4

2.2 Top 5 Stale Issues:

As of our latest update, there are no stale issues for the project this week.

2.3 Open Issues

This section lists, groups, and then summarizes issues that were created within the last week in the repository.

Issues Opened This Week: 25

Summarized Issues:

• Pod lifecycle and deletion errors: Several issues highlight problems related to pod deletion and lifecycle management, including the Kubernetes Garbage Collector not handling NotFound errors properly during external pod deletions, and pods entering ContainerStatusUnknown or remaining in terminating states after node reboots due to volume directory removal or status inconsistencies. These issues cause unexpected disruptions and error logging noise in cluster operations.
• [issues/136525, issues/136556, issues/136591]

• Test flakiness and failures in e2e and sig tests: Multiple flaking or failing tests are reported, including autoscaling tests failing due to race conditions with PodDisruptionBudgets, client rate limiter errors causing context deadline exceeded in node listing, Pod Level Resources InPlace Resize feature tests flaking, image volume subPath tests failing due to command errors, and KubeProxy TCP CLOSE_WAIT timeout tests failing on IPv6 nodes. These test failures reduce reliability and confidence in automated testing.
• [issues/136531, issues/136536, issues/136538, issues/136547, issues/136559]

• Configuration and validation inconsistencies: Issues include misleading validation error messages when updating Job startTime, inability to remove manually added environment variables via kubectl apply causing config drift, and requests to improve declarative validation tags on non-pointer structs for better linting. These problems cause confusion and inconsistencies in configuration management.
• [issues/136527, issues/136586, issues/136612]

• Node and pod resource management problems: Problems are reported with kubelet CPU manager saving inconsistent CPU allocation states causing resource leaks, and pods being scheduled without valid IP addresses due to missing validation in SyncPod, leading to scheduling without useful error messages. These issues risk resource mismanagement and scheduling errors.
• [issues/136604, issues/136629]

• Enhancements to scheduling and plugin extensibility: There is a request to add an extension point after the PostFilter phase in the scheduler to allow plugins to always execute actions based on preemption results, addressing challenges in pod group state handling and scheduling decisions. This aims to improve scheduler flexibility and plugin capabilities.
• [issues/136609]

• TLS and network configuration improvements: A request to add a tlsServerName field to TLSConfig in EgressSelectorConfiguration aims to fix connection failures caused by mismatched DNS names and server certificates, improving TLS hostname verification.
• [issues/136545]

• API and client-go behavior improvements: Issues include the generated client-go fake clientset incorrectly modeling spec and status subresource separation during server-side apply, causing ApplyStatus calls to overwrite fields set by Apply calls, diverging from real apiserver behavior.
• [issues/136672]

• Namespace and resource cleanup in e2e tests: A request to enable the --prefix flag for namespaces created during e2e test execution would allow deterministic identification and cleanup of resources, improving test environment management.
• [issues/136597]

• Device allocation and scheduling determinism: A proposal to allow DRA drivers to specify device consideration order during scheduling aims to improve determinism, speed, and appropriateness of device allocation by the DRA allocator.
• [issues/136628]

• Metrics and monitoring optimization: There is a request to reduce the cardinality of Pressure Stall Information (PSI) metrics by excluding pause and pod cgroup containers, significantly decreasing Prometheus pod memory usage caused by large PSI series volume at scale.
• [issues/136642]

• Documentation and configuration clarity: Confusion exists regarding the deprecation of the reservedCpu setting in kubelet, as users cannot find corresponding documentation or configuration, only memory settings, leading to uncertainty about proper configuration.
• [issues/136645]

• API responsiveness and latency issues: A failing test in ClusterLoaderV2 reports high latency in DELETE requests to the events resource during API responsiveness measurement, exceeding expected thresholds and indicating performance concerns.
• [issues/136649]

• Build and tooling improvements: A proposal to modify the setcap build image to run the setcap command in exec form without a shell would enable a more minimal, distroless image, reducing dependencies and potential vulnerabilities.
• [issues/136631]

• ConfigMap and Secret reference enhancements: A proposal to enhance EnvFromSource API by adding namespace support for configMapRef and secretRef through unified reference types aims to improve developer experience and consistency in secret and configMap references.
• [issues/136617]

• Node IP address assumptions in tests: Some Kubernetes end-to-end tests fail when nodes lack an InternalIP address, despite nodes with only ExternalIP being valid, suggesting these tests should be skipped rather than fail under such conditions.
• [issues/136626]

• OpenAPI tooling improvements: A proposal to improve the models-schema tool to accept generated OpenAPI packages as input instead of importing them directly aims to prevent code drift and streamline verification across multiple copied instances.
• [issues/136627]

2.4 Closed Issues

This section lists, groups, and then summarizes issues that were closed within the last week in the repository. This section also links the associated pull requests if applicable.

Issues Closed This Week: 12

Summarized Issues:

• Kubelet and Containerd Test Failures: Multiple issues report failures in kubelet and containerd related tests, including serial test failures on reboot and credential-pulled image tests failing across various CI jobs and platforms. These failures have persisted since mid-January 2026 and involve context deadline exceeded errors and kubelet restart problems on Container-Optimized OS.
• [issues/136331, issues/136546, issues/136549]

• Service and Pod Networking Bugs: There are issues with Kubernetes NodePort service behavior when externalTrafficPolicy is set to Local, allowing access to nodes without targeted pods, and a test suite failure related to IPv6 conntrack entries timing out. These problems highlight inconsistencies in network policy enforcement and test reliability in IPv6 environments.
• [issues/136338, issues/136553]

• Container Port Specification Bug: A bug causes one of the duplicate container ports with different protocols (TCP and UDP) to be removed after pod spec updates due to the merge key only considering the containerPort number. This leads to unexpected port removal in Kubernetes Deployments.
• [issues/136340]

• Resource Calculation Panic: A panic occurs in the maxResourceList function due to an assignment to a nil map when pod spec container resource requests are nil but status container resource requests are populated. This missing nil check causes crashes during pod resource request calculations.
• [issues/136533]

• Kubectl Resource Describer Test Coverage: There is a lack of basic tests for several kubectl resource describers, including ReplicaSet, CronJob, Role, ClusterRole, RoleBinding, ClusterRoleBinding, and CertificateSigningRequest. Adding these tests is necessary to verify output formatting and prevent regressions.
• [issues/136460]

• Pod Deletion Grace Period Enhancement: A feature request seeks support for killing pods using the latest DeletionGracePeriodSeconds value if it changes during deletion, ensuring pods respect updated grace periods rather than the original one.
• [issues/136555]

• Kube-proxy Deployment Modernization: Two issues address updating the default value of the KUBE_PROXY_DAEMONSET environment variable from false to true in GCE cluster scripts. This change aligns with modern Kubernetes standards by deploying kube-proxy as a DaemonSet instead of static pods, enabling removal of legacy static-pod logic and reducing technical debt.
• [issues/136562, issues/136563]

• Academic Survey Participation Request: A PhD candidate requests participation in an anonymous academic survey aimed at understanding how developers identify and address security issues during code review in open-source projects.
• [issues/136599]
