## Good practice for passing values in structured logging
When passing a value for a key-value pair, please use following rules:
-* Prefer using Kubernetes objects (for example `*v1.Pod`) and log them using `klog.KObj`
+* Prefer using Kubernetes objects and log them using `klog.KObj` or `klog.KObjSlice`
* When the original object is not available, use `klog.KRef` instead
+ * when only one object (for example `*v1.Pod`), we use`klog.KObj`
+ * When type is object slice (for example `[]*v1.Pod`), we use `klog.KObjSlice`
* Pass structured values directly (avoid calling `.String()` on them first)
* When the goal is to log a `[]byte` array as string, explicitly convert with `string(<byte array>)`.

+### Prefer using Kubernetes objects (for example `*v1.Pod` or `[]*v1.Pod`) and log them using `klog.KObj` or `klog.KObjSlice`
As part of the structured logging migration, we want to ensure that Kubernetes object references are
consistent within the
-codebase. Two new utility functions were introduced to klog: `klog.KObj` and `klog.KRef`.

Any existing logging code that makes a reference (such as name, namespace) to a Kubernetes
object (for example: Pod, Node, Deployment, CustomResourceDefinition) should be rewritten to
