• Firstly release 1.22 Fix TerminationGracePeriodSeconds is negative (part 1) #98866:
  • Treat negative as 1 in delete path (pod/strategy.go, apiserver delete.go)
  • Allow delete with grace period 0 even if metadata period is negative (apiserver delete.go). This allows kubelet to delete pods.
  • Relax validation of immutable fields to allow it to be set to 1 if it was previously negative. This allows us to update read path in the next release. All consumers would also need to be able to handle this change in a sane manner.
• Secondly release 1.27 pod.spec.terminationGracePeriodSeconds is a negative then convert to 1 #115606:
  • Treat negative as 1 (defaulting or conversion)
• Thirdly:
  • Returning an error on Pod create could break things like Deployment updates. But if we update defaulting, then I think we won't hit this issue.
