🎉 Welcome to the v2.3.4 release of the kgateway project!
Release Notes
Changes since v2.3.3
New Features
- added reference grant mode (#14238)
Bug Fixes
- Fixed route Hostname/ServiceEntry backendRefs to the requested port on multi-port hosts (#14259)
- ServiceEntry clusters with workloadSelector-backed pod endpoints now respect pod readiness: NotReady pods are excluded from routing, matching the EndpointSlice-based Service behavior and enabling locality failover when all locally selected pods are NotReady. WorkloadEntry and inline ServiceEntry endpoints are unaffected. (#14262)
