Action required for custom scheduler plugin developers:
  Plugins **have to** implement a QueueingHint for Pod/Update event if the rejection from them could be resolved by updating unscheduled Pods themselves.

### API Change

- **ACTION REQUIRED** for custom scheduler plugin developers:
  `PodEligibleToPreemptOthers` in the `preemption` interface now includes `ctx` in the parameters.

  
  Type `Parallelizer` in `k/k/pkg/scheduler/framework/parallelism` has been split into interface `Parallelizer` (in `k8s.io/kube-scheduler/framework`) and `struct Parallelizer` (location unchanged in k/k). Plugin developers should update the import path to staging repo.

 - Scheduler's CycleState now embeds internal read/write locking inside its `Read()` and `Write()` functions. Meanwhile, `Lock()` and `Unlock()` function are removed. Scheduler plugin developers are now required to remove `CycleState#Lock()` and `CycleState#Unlock()`. Just simply use `Read()` and `Write()` as they're natively thread-safe now.

containers](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/pods/ephemeral-containers/), it became more obvious how we can support developers with tooling built on top of `kubectl exec`. The addition of the `kubectl debug` [command](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/blob/master/keps/sig-cli/1441-kubectl-debug/README.md) (it is alpha but your feedback is more than welcome), allows developers to easily debug their Pods inside the cluster. We think this addition is invaluable.  This command allows one to create...

### API Change

- Improved scheduling performance when many nodes, and prefilter returns 1-2 nodes (e.g. daemonset)
  

- For scheduler plugin developers: the scheduler framework's shared PodInformer is now initialized with empty indexers. This enables scheduler plugins to add their extra indexers. Note that only non-conflict indexers are allowed to be added. ([#110663](https://github.com/kubern...

* Deprecate kubectl rolling-update  ([#61285](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61285), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))
* client-go developers: the new dynamic client is easier to use and the old is deprecated, you must switch. ([#62913](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/62913), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k))
