- DRA: When the prioritized list feature was used in a request and the resulting number of allocated devices exceeded the number of allowed devices per claim, the scheduler aborted the attempt to allocate devices early. Previously, it tried to many different combinations, which could take a long time. ([#130593](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130593),...

  
  Additionally, the FailureTarget condition is also added to the Job object in the first Job
  status update as soon as the failure conditions are met (backoffLimit is exceeded, maxFailedIndexes, 
  or activeDeadlineSeconds is exceeded).
  
  Similarly, the SuccessCriteriaMet condition is added in the first update as soon as the expected number
  of pod completions is reached.
  

* Fix init container status reporting when active deadline is exceeded. ([#46305](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46305), [@sjenning](https://github.com/sjenning))

* Pods that are marked for deletion and have exceeded their grace period, but are not yet deleted, no longer count toward the resource quota.([#46542](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46542))


#### Dynamic Admission Control

- DRA: CEL expressions using attribute strings exceeded the cost limit because their cost estimation was incomplete. ([#129661](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/129661), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly)) [SIG Node]

- Apiserver `/healthz/etcd` endpoint rate limits the number of forwarded health check requests to the etcd backends, answering with the last known state if the rate limit is exceeded. The rate limit is based on 1/2 of the timeout configured, with no burst allowed. ([#112046](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112046), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

### API Change

- DRA: CEL expressions using attribute strings exceeded the cost limit because their cost estimation was incomplete. Cost estimation was unnecessarily also computed in the scheduler. ([#129690](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/129690), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly)) [SIG Node]
