When a secret being already consumed in a volume is updated, projected keys are eventually updated as well.
Kubelet is checking whether the mounted secret is fresh on every periodic sync.
However, it is using its local ttl-based cache for getting the current value of the secret.
As a result, the total delay from the moment when the secret is updated to the moment when new keys are
projected to the pod can be as long as kubelet sync period + ttl of secrets cache in kubelet.
However, it is using its local cache for getting the current value of the Secret.
The type of the cache is configurable using the (`ConfigMapAndSecretChangeDetectionStrategy` field in
[KubeletConfiguration struct](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/{{< param "docsbranch" >}}/pkg/kubelet/apis/kubeletconfig/v1beta1/types.go)).
It can be either propagated via watch (default), ttl-based, or simply redirecting
all requests to directly kube-apiserver.
As a result, the total delay from the moment when the Secret is updated to the moment
when new keys are projected to the Pod can be as long as kubelet sync period + cache
propagation delay, where cache propagation delay depends on the chosen cache type
(it equals to watch propagation delay, ttl of cache, or zero corespondingly).
