- `kubectl describe` will by default fetch large lists of resources in chunks of up to 500 items rather than requesting all resources up front from the server. A new flag `--chunk-size=SIZE` may be used to alter the number of items or disable this feature when `0` is passed.  This is a beta feature.

* `kubectl get` will by default fetch large lists of resources in chunks of up to 500 items rather than requesting all resources up front from the server. This reduces the perceived latency of managing large clusters since the server returns the first set of results to the client much more quickly.  A new flag `--chunk-size=SIZE` may be used to alter the number of items or disable this feature when `0` is passed.  This is a beta feature. (...

The Kubernetes API server now supports the ability to break large LIST calls into multiple smaller chunks. A client can specify a limit to the number of results to return. If more results exist, a token is returned that allows the client to continue the previous list call repeatedly until all results are retrieved.  The resulting list is identical to a list call that does not perform chunking, thanks to capabilities provided by etcd3.  This allows the server to use less memory and CPU when very large...

* Add --image-repository flag to "kubeadm config images". ([#75866](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75866), [@jmkeyes](https://github.com/jmkeyes))
* Paginate requests from the kube-apiserver watch cache to etcd in chunks. ([#75389](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75389), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz))
    * Paginate reflector init and resync List calls that are not served by watch cache.

### Documentation

- Promoted the `--chunk-size` flag to stable. The kubectl `describe`, `get`, `drain`, and `events` commands can use `--chunk-size` flag to set chunk size. ([#134481](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134481), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))

### Bug or Regression

- kubeadm no longer performs IPVS checks as part of its preflight checks ([#81791](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81791), [@yastij](https://github.com/yastij))

* Change Azure ARM Rate limiting error message. ([#65292](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65292), [@wgliang](https://github.com/wgliang))
* AWS now checks for validity of ecryption key when creating encrypted volumes. Dynamic provisioning of encrypted volume may get slower due to these checks. ([#65223](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65223), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane))

* kubeadm: fix "upgrade plan" not defaulting to a "stable" version if no version argument is passed ([#75900](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75900), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))
