* Adds a command-line argument to kube-apiserver called ([#51698](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51698), [@rphillips](https://github.com/rphillips))
    * --alpha-endpoint-reconciler-type=(master-count, lease, none) (default
    * "master-count"). The original reconciler is 'master-count'. The 'lease'
    * reconciler uses the storageapi and a TTL to keep alive an endpoint within the

    * clusters. When that var is set to true, the command line flag enabling kubelet
    * client certificate rotation will be added to the kubelet command line.
* Make sure that resources being updated are handled correctly by Quota system ([#52452](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52452), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))

* Default values differ between the Kubelet's componentconfig (config file) API and the Kubelet's command line. Be sure to review the default values when migrating to using a config file. For example, the authz mode is set to "AlwaysAllow" if you rely on the command line, but defaults to the more secure "Webhook" mode if you load config from a file.

- Correctly handle resetting cpuacct in a live container ([#94041](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94041), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx)) [SIG Node and Windows]

- Added a new command line argument `--interactive` to kubectl. The new command line argument lets a user confirm deletion requests per resource interactively. ([#114530](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114530), [@ardaguclu](https://github.com/ardaguclu)) [SIG CLI and Testing]

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

- 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]

## Dependencies

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

    * The body size limit does not apply to subresources like pods/proxy that proxy request content to another server.

We are also continuing our long running effort to extract all the existing cloud providers that live in k8s.io/kubernetes into their own respective repos. Along with this migration, we are slowly transitioning users to use the cloud-controller-manager for any cloud provider features instead of the kube-controller-manager.

## Changelog since v1.18.18

## Changes by Kind

### API Change

- We have added a new Priority & Fairness rule that exempts all probes (/readyz, /healthz, /livez) to prevent 
  restarting of "healthy" kube-apiserver instance(s) by kubelet. ([#101114](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101114), [@tkashem](https://github.com/tkashem)) [SIG API Machinery]
