* When performing a GET then PUT, the kube-apiserver must write the canonical representation of the object to etcd if the current value does not match. That allows external agents to migrate content in etcd from one API version to another, across different storage types, or across varying encryption levels. This fixes a bug introduced in 1.5 where we unintentionally stopped writing the newest data. ([#48394](https://github...

  - ip-mask-agent addon starts to use the label `node.kubernetes.io/masq-agent-ds-ready` instead of `beta.kubernetes.io/masq-agent-ds-ready` as its node selector.

- When `SchedulerQueueingHint` is enabled,
  the scheduler's in-tree plugins now subscribe to specific node events to decide whether to requeue Pods.
  This allows the scheduler to handle cluster events faster with less memory.

  Specific node events include updates to taints, tolerations or allocatable.

- GCE/Windows: added support for the stackdriver logging agent ([#76850](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76850), [@yujuhong](https://github.com/yujuhong))

- `kubectl` will not print events if `--show-events=false` argument is passed to
  describe PVC subcommand. ([#120380](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120380), [@MaGaroo](https://github.com/MaGaroo))
- `scheduler`: Fixed missing field `apiVersion` from events reported by the taint

### Documentation

- Kubectl describe, get, drain and events have the ability to set chunk-size using --chunk-size flag, which is now officially stable. ([#134481](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134481), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh)) [SIG CLI]

### Bug or Regression

- Fixed a bug where `events/v1` `Events` with similar event type and reporting instance were not aggregated by `client-go`. ([#112365](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112365), [@dgrisonnet](https://github.com/dgrisonnet))
