* Increase allowed lag for ssh key sync loop in tunneler to allow for one failure ([#60068](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60068), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

- Added scheduler preemption support for pods using `ReadWriteOncePod` PVCs ([#114051](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114051),...

- Kube-apiserver: sets an upper-bound on the lifetime of idle keep-alive connections and time to read the headers of incoming requests ([#103958](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103958), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG API Machinery and Node]

* Changed ext3/ext4 volume creation to not reserve any portion of the volume for the root user. When creating ext3/ext4 volume, mkfs defaults to reserving 5% of the volume for the super-user (root). This patch changes the mkfs to pass -m0 to disable this setting.

- XFS-filesystems are now force-formatted (option `-f`) in order to avoid problems being formatted due to detection of magic super-blocks. This aligns with the behaviour of formatting of ext3/4 filesystems. ([#104923](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104923), [@davidkarlsen](https://github.com/davidkarlsen))

- New feature gate, ServiceIPStaticSubrange, to enable the new strategy in the Service IP allocators, so the IP range is subdivided and dynamic allocated ClusterIP addresses for Services are allocated preferently from the upper range. ([#106792](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/106792), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

    * The apiserver also now takes an optional flag "--maximum-startup-sequence-duration". This allows you to explicitly define an upper bound on the apiserver startup sequences before healthz begins to fail. By keeping the kubelet liveness initial delay short, this can enable quick kubelet recovery as soon as we have a boot sequence which has not completed in our expected time frame,...

     2. Be allowed to bind the referenced role, either by already having all of the permissions contained in the referenced role, or by having the "bind" permission on the referenced role.
* The `--authorization-rbac-super-user` flag (alpha in 1.5) is deprecated; the `system:masters` group has privileged access ([#38121](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/38121), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k))
