- Client-go: fixed potential data races retrying requests using a custom `io.Reader` body; with this fix, only requests with no body or with `string` / `[]byte` / `runtime.Object` bodies can be retried ([#113933](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113933), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- Fixed a bug in the JSON frame reader that could cause it to retain a reference to the underlying array of the byte slice passed to read. ([#123620](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123620), [@benluddy](https://github.com/benluddy))

- Fixes a 1.34 regression starting pods with environment variables with a value containing `$` followed by a multi-byte character ([#136491](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/136491), [@AutuSnow](https://github.com/AutuSnow)) [SIG Architecture and Node]

- Exposed `rest.DefaultServerUrlFor` function. ([#118055](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118055), [@timofurrer](https://g...

- Increase timeout for pod lifecycle test to reach pod status=ready ([#96691](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96691), [@hh](https://github.com/hh))
- Increased `CSINodeIDMaxLength` from 128 bytes to 192 bytes. ([#98753](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98753), [@Jiawei0227](https://github.com/Jiawei0227))

  termination message log file. The termination message file is now properly
  readable for end users and has a maximum size (4k bytes) to prevent abuse.
  Each pod may have up to 12k bytes of termination messages before the contents
  of each will be truncated.
* Do not delete pod objects until all its compute resource footprint has been
  reclaimed.

* Fix a bug that pretty printer marshals empty byte or uint8 slice as null ([#81096](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81096), [@roycaihw](https://github.com/roycaihw))
