- Signal handling is now initialized within hyperkube commands that require it, such as apiserver and kubelet. ([#76659](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76659), [@S-Chan](https://github.com/S-Chan))

  // Pod Topology Spread treats "global minimum" as 0, and then the calculation of Skew is performed.
  // And when the number of eligible domains with matching topology keys equals or greater than minDomains,
  // this value has no effect on scheduling.
  // As a result, when the number of eligible domains is less than minDomains,

- `kubeadm`: will now allow deploying a kubelet that is 3 versions older than the version of `kubeadm` (N-3). This aligns with the recent change made by SIG Architecture that extends the support skew between the control plane and kubelets. Tolerate this new kubelet skew for the commands `init`, `join` and `upgrade`. Note that if the `kubeadm` user applies a control plane version that is older than the `kubeadm` version (N-1 maximum) then the skew between the kubelet and control plane...

### Network

    * Default value for expendable pod priority cutoff in GCP deployment of Cluster Autoscaler changed from 0 to -10.
    * action required: users deploying workloads with priority lower than 0 may want to use priority lower than -10 to avoid triggering scale-up.
