- The API server now detects and fails on startup if there are conflicting issuers between JWT authenticators and service account configurations. Previously, such configurations would run but could be inconsistently effective depending on the credential.

The core type of an interface is, depending on the condition that is satisfied, either:

<ol>
<li>
the type <code>U</code>; or
</li>
<li>
the type <code>chan E</code> if <code>T</code> contains only bidirectional
channels, or the type <code>chan&lt;- E</code> or <code>&lt;-chan E</code>
depending on the direction of the directional channels present.

- Give terminal phase correctly to all pods that will not be restarted. 

  In particular, assign Failed phase to pods which are deleted while pending. Also, assign a terminal 
  phase (Succeeded or Failed, depending on the exit statuses of the pod containers) to pods which
  are deleted while running.
  
  This fixes the issue for jobs using pod failure policy (with JobPodFailurePolicy and PodDisruptionConditions 

they remain valid even after a new refreshed token is provided. The metric `serviceaccount_stale_tokens_total` can be used to monitor for workloads that are depending on the extended lifetime and are continuing to use tokens even after a refreshed token is provided to the container. If that metric indicates no existing workloads are depending on extended lifetimes, injected token lifetime can be shortened to 1 hour by starting `kube-apiserver` with `--service-account-extend-token-expiration=false`....

- If BoundServiceAccountTokenVolume is enabled, cluster admins can use metric `serviceaccount_stale_tokens_total` to monitor workloads that are depending on the extended tokens. If there are no such workloads, turn off extended tokens by starting `kube-apiserver` with flag `--service-account-extend-token-expiration=false` ([#96273](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96273), [@zshihang]...

* [action required] The WATCHLIST calls are now reported as WATCH verbs in prometheus for the apiserver_request_* series.  A new "scope" label is added to all apiserver_request_* values that is either 'cluster', 'resource', or 'namespace' depending on which level the query is performed at.([#52237](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52237))
