Description Tim Rozet 2021-05-10 14:11:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
We switched in 4.8 to use the new services controller for endpoint slices. However when a node is added it tries to sync services using the old controller. There is deadlock here around the services cache we hold using the old controller:

Comment 2 Tim Rozet 2021-05-10 14:30:37 UTC 
4.8 solution to this is to stop using the old endpoints/services controller and only use the new controller
