* --alpha-endpoint-reconciler-type=(master-count, lease, none) (default
    * "master-count"). The original reconciler is 'master-count'. The 'lease'
    * reconciler uses the storageapi and a TTL to keep alive an endpoint within the
    * `kube-apiserver-endpoint` storage namespace. The 'none' reconciler is a noop

- New Azure instance types do now have correct max data disk count information. ([#94340](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94340), [@ialidzhikov](https://github.com/ialidzhikov)) [SIG Cloud Provider and Storage]

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

- Fix handing special characters in the volume path on Windows ([#99138](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99138), [@yujuhong](https://github.com/yujuhong)) [SIG Storage]

### Bug or Regression

- Count pod overhead against an entity's ResourceQuota ([#99600](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99600), [@gjkim42](https://github.com/gjkim42)) [SIG API Machinery and Node]

- Object count quota is now supported for namespaced custom resources using the `count/<resource>.<group>` syntax. ([#72384](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72384), [@zhouhaibing089](https://github.com/zhouhaibing089))

- Fixes a regression in 1.34 release candidates where object storage count metrics could include all instances of all types instead of only the object count for a particular type ([#133604](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/133604), [@serathius](https://github.com/serathius)) [SIG API Machinery and Etcd]

## Dependencies

    * waiting for the request to be satisfied. It will continually refresh the certificate

  * Create clusters with GPUs in GCE by specifying `type=<gpu-type>,count=<gpu-count>` to NODE_ACCELERATORS environment variable. ([#45130](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/45130), [@vishh](https://github.com/vishh))

### API Change

- A new alpha feature gate, `MutableCSINodeAllocatableCount`, has been introduced.
  

* kube-apiserver: the default `--endpoint-reconciler-type` is now `lease`. The `master-count` endpoint reconciler type is deprecated and will be removed in 1.13. ([#63383](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/63383), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- StatefulSets should always count `.status.availableReplicas` at the correct time without a delay. This results in faster progress of StatefulSet rollout. ([#136097](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/136097), [@atiratree](https://github.com/atiratree)) [SIG Apps]

* Clean links handling in cp's tar code ([#76788](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76788), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))
* Adds a new "storage_operation_status_count" metric for kube-controller-manager and kubelet to count success and error statues. ([#75750](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75750), [@msau42](https://github.com/msau42))
