* Fix in vSphere Cloud Provider to report disk is detach when VM is not found. ([#62220](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/62220), [@abrarshivani](https://github.com/abrarshivani))

fields with incorrect case will no longer be valid. You must correct these files before upgrading.** When specifying keys in JSON resource definitions during direct API server communication, the keys are case-sensitive. A bug introduced in Kubernetes 1.8 caused the API server to accept a request with incorrect case and coerce it to correct case, but this behaviour has been fixed in 1.11 and the API server will once again be enforcing the correct case. It’s worth noting that during this time, the `kubectl`...

* StatefulSet will now fill the `hostname` and `subdomain` fields if they're empty on existing Pods it owns. This allows it to self-correct the issue where StatefulSet Pod DNS entries disappear after upgrading to v1.7.x ([#48327](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/48327)).

    To address this, the new debian-hyperkube-base image (v1.1.0) uses the
    debian-iptables base image (v12.1.0), which includes iptables-wrapper, a
    script used to determine the correct iptables mode to run in. ([#92495](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/92495), [@justaugustus](https://github.com/justaugustus)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle and Release]

## Dependencies

### Added

PreFilterResult filters out certain Nodes, the scheduling framework now categorizes them as rejected via `UnschedulableAndUnresolvable`. Consequently, these nodes are excluded from the candidates for the preemption process. Additionally, this update corrects how the scheduling framework handles the Unschedulable status from PreFilter. Previously, if PreFilter returned `Unschedulable`, it could lead to an unexpected abortion in the preemption process, which shouldn't occur in the default scheduler but...
