The kubelet in Kubernetes v{{< skew currentVersion >}} collects spans from

the garbage collection, pod synchronization routine as well as every gRPC

method. The kubelet propagates trace context with gRPC requests so that
|

container runtimes with trace instrumentation, such as CRI-O and containerd,
|

can associate their exported spans with the trace context from the kubelet.
|

The resulting traces will have parent-child links between kubelet and
|

container runtime spans, providing helpful context when debugging node
|

issues.

Please note that exporting spans always comes with a small performance overhead

on the networking and CPU side, depending on the overall configuration of the
