#### Garbage Collector
* The garbage collector now supports custom APIs added via Custom Resource Definitions
  or aggregated API servers. The garbage collector controller refreshes periodically.
  Therefore, expect a latency of about 30 seconds between when an API is added and when
  the garbage collector starts to manage it.


#### Monitoring/Prometheus

* The garbage collector now supports CustomResourceDefinitions and APIServices. ([#65918](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65918), [@nikhita](https://github.com/nikhita))

* Finalizers are now honored on custom resources, and on other resources even when garbage collection is disabled via the apiserver flag `--enable-garbage-collector=false` ([#51469](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51469), [@ironcladlou](https://github.com/ironcladlou))

- Fixed a regression in default configurations, which enabled `PodDisruptionConditions`
  by default, that prevented the control plane's pod garbage collector from deleting
  pods that contained duplicated field keys (environmental variables with repeated keys or
  container ports). ([#121103](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121103), [@mimowo](https://github.com/mimowo))

- APIServerTracing now collects spans from etcd client calls, and propagates context to etcd. ([#103216](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103216), [@dashpole](https://github.com/dashpole)) [SIG API Machinery, Cloud Provider and Instrumentation]

  - A cluster-scoped object with an ownerReference referencing a uid of a namespaced kind is now consistently treated as though that owner is not resolvable, and the child object is ignored by the garbage collector.
