- : `kubeadm upgrade apply` now supports phase sub-command, users can use `kubeadm upgrade apply phase <phase-name>` to execute the specified phase, or use `kubeadm upgrade apply --skip-phases <phase-names>` to skip some phases during cluster upgrade. ([#126032](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126032), [@SataQiu](https://github.com/SataQiu)) [SIG Cluster...

- [migration phase 1] PodFitsHostPorts as filter plugin ([#83659](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83659), [@wgliang](https://github.com/wgliang))
- [migration phase 1] PodFitsResources as framework plugin ([#83650](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83650), [@wgliang](https://github.com/wgliang))

- Give terminal phase correctly to all pods that will not be restarted. 

  In particular, assign Failed phase to pods which are deleted while pending. Also, assign a terminal 
  phase (Succeeded or Failed, depending on the exit statuses of the pod containers) to pods which
  are deleted while running.
  

- The `kubeadm join` command can now be used in phases. Similar to the work that was done for `kubeadm init` in 1.13, in 1.14 the `join` phases can be now executed step-by-step/selectively using the `kubeadm join phase` sub-command. This makes it possible to further customize the workflow of joining nodes to the cluster.

## Changes by Kind

### Deprecation

- 'kubeadm: marked the sub-phase of ''init kubelet-finilize'' called ''experimental-cert-rotation''
  as deprecated and print a warning if it is used directly; it will be removed in

- Kubeadm: added `show-join-command` as a new separate phase at the end of `kubeadm init`. You can skip printing the join information by using `kubeadm init --skip-phases=show-join-command`. Executing only this phase on demand will throw an error because the phase needs dependencies such as bootstrap tokens to be pre-populated. ([#111512](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111512), [@SataQiu](htt...

- kubeadm has graduated `kubeadm alpha phase` commands to `kubeadm init phase`. This means that the phases of creating a control-plane node are now tightly integrated as part of the `init` command. Alpha features, not yet ready for GA are still kept under `kubeadm alpha` and we appreciate feedback on them.

- Fixed a kubelet issue that could result in invalid pod status updates to be sent to the api-server where pods would be reported in a terminal phase but also report a ready condition of true in some cases. ([#110481](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/110481), [@bobbypage](https://github.com/bobbypage)) [SIG Node and Testing]

- kubeadm: introduce deterministic ordering for the certificates generation in the phase command `kubeadm init phase certs`. ([#78556](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78556), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))
