* `kubeadm join` is now blocking on the kubelet performing the TLS Bootstrap properly. Earlier, `kubeadm join` only did the discovery part and exited successfully without checking that the kubelet actually started properly and performed the TLS bootstrap correctly. Now, as kubeadm runs some post-join steps (for example, annotating the Node API object with the CRISocket), `kubeadm join` is now waiting for the kubelet to perform the TLS Bootstrap, and then uses that credential to perform...

- Fixed the comment for the Job's managedBy field. ([#124793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124793), [@mimowo](https://github.com/mimowo)) [SIG API Machinery and Apps]
- Fixed the documentation for the default value of the `procMount` entry in `securityContext` within a Pod.

images must be moved to the new directory, and installation processes must be updated with the new path. ([#58171](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58171), [@verult](https://github.com/verult))

* Default values differ between the Kubelet's componentconfig (config file) API and the Kubelet's command line. Be sure to review the default values when migrating to using a config file. For example, the authz mode is set to "AlwaysAllow" if you rely on the command line, but defaults...

e2e tests that require SSH may now be used against clusters that have nodes without external IP addresses by setting the environment variable `KUBE_SSH_BASTION` to the `host:port` of a machine that is allowed to SSH to those nodes.  The same private key that the test would use is used for the bastion host.  The test connects to the bastion and then tunnels another SSH connection to the node.

  - The `PersistentVolumeLabel` admission controller will be removed in a future release, when the out-of-tree versions of the GCE and AWS cloud providers move to GA. The cloud providers are marked alpha in version 1.9.

### OpenStack

`tokenAttribute` field to be configured. When it is set, the kubelet will provision a token with the given audience bound to the current pod and its service account. This KSA token along with required annotations on the KSA defined in configuration will be sent to the credential provider plugin via its standard input (along with the image information that is already sent today). The KSA annotations to be sent are configurable in the kubelet credential provider configuration. ([#128372](https://github.co...

kube-scheduler removed `AzureDiskLimits` ,`CinderLimits` `EBSLimits` and `GCEPDLimits` plugin. Given the corresponding CSI driver reports how many volumes a node can handle in NodeGetInfoResponse, the kubelet stores this limit in CSINode and the scheduler then knows the limit of the driver on the node. Removed plugins AzureDiskLimits, CinderLimits, EBSLimits and GCEPDLimits if you explicitly enabled them in the scheduler config.

- If `PreBindPreFlight` returned `Skip`, the scheduler didn't run the plugin at `PreBind`.
  If any `PreBindPreFlight` returned `Success`, the scheduler put NominatedNodeName to the pod 
  so that other components (such as the cluster autoscaler) could notice the pod was going to be bound to the node. ([#133021](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/133021), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho)) [SIG Scheduling and Testing]

- Added CEL runtime cost calculation into ValidatingAdmissionPolicy, matching the evaluation cost
  restrictions that already apply to CustomResourceDefinition.
  If rule evaluation uses more compute than the limit, the API server aborts the evaluation and the
  admission check that was being performed is aborted; the `failurePolicy` for the ValidatingAdmissionPolicy

- Kubelet: Fix the volume manager didn't check the device mount state in the actual state of the world before marking the volume as detached. It may cause a pod to be stuck in the Terminating state due to the above issue when it was deleted.
