- Fixed a bug in the exclusive assignment availability check for the `InPlacePodVerticalScalingExclusiveCPUs` feature gate. ([#130559](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130559), [@esotsal](https://github.com/esotsal))

### Additional Notable Feature Updates

- [Topology Manager](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/693), a new Kubelet component, aims to co-ordinate resource assignment decisions to provide optimized resource allocations.
- [IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/dual-stack) enables the allocation of both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to Pods and Services.

Kubernetes 1.24 introduced a new opt-in feature that allows you to
[soft-reserve a range for static IP address assignments](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/#service-ip-static-sub-range)
to Services.
With the manual enablement of this feature, the cluster will prefer automatic assignment from
the pool of Service IP addresses thereby reducing the risk of collision.

A Service `ClusterIP` can be assigned:

- Certain fields on  Service objects will be automatically cleared when changing the service's `type` to a mode that does not need those fields.  For example, changing from type=LoadBalancer to type=ClusterIP will clear the NodePort assignments, rather than forcing the user to clear them.
