This update fixes the following bugs among others:
* Previously, there were broken connections to the API server that caused
nodes to remain in the NotReady state. Detecting a broken network
connection could take up to 15 minutes, during which the platform would
remain unavailable. This is now fixed by setting the TCP_USER_TIMEOUT
socket option, which controls how long transmitted data can be
unacknowledged before the connection is forcefully closed. (BZ#1907939)
* Previously, the quota controllers only worked on resources retrieved from
the discovery endpoint, which might contain only a fraction of all
resources due to a network error. This is now fixed by having the quota
controllers periodically resync when new resources are observed from the
discovery endpoint. (BZ#1910096)
* Previously, the kuryr-controller was comparing security groups related to
network policies incorrectly. This caused security rules related to a
network policy to be recreated on every minor update of that network
policy. This bug has been fixed, allowing network policy updates that
already have existing rules to be preserved; network policy additions or
deletions are performed, if needed. (BZ#1910221)
