- Fixed a bug where the CPU set allocated to an init container, with containerRestartPolicy of `Always`, were erroneously reused by a regular container. ([#119447](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119447), [@gjkim42](https://github.com/gjkim42)) [SIG Node and Testing]

- 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), [@mortent](https://github.com/mortent))...

- During device plugin allocation, resources requested by the pod can only be allocated if the device plugin has registered itself to kubelet AND healthy devices are present on the node to be allocated. If these conditions are not sattsfied, the pod would fail with `UnexpectedAdmissionError` error. ([#117719](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117719), [@swatisehgal](https://g...

storage for a named variable.

Calling the built-in function <a href="#Allocation"><code>new</code></a>
or taking the address of a <a href="#Composite_literals">composite literal</a>
allocates storage for a variable at run time.
Such an anonymous variable is referred to via a (possibly implicit)

- Kube-scheduler: in Kubernetes 1.33, the number of devices that can be allocated per ResourceClaim was accidentally reduced to 16. Now the supported number of devices per ResourceClaim is 32 again.
