  * [Nodes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/#node-affinity-beta-feature) and [pods](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/#inter-pod-affinity-and-anti-affinity-beta-feature) now support affinity and anti-affinity
  * Advanced scheduling can be performed with [taints and tolerations](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/#taints-and-tolerations-beta-feature)

* Bump up version number of debian-base, debian-hyperkube-base and debian-iptables.  ([#67026](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67026), [@satyasm](https://github.com/satyasm))
    * Also updates dependencies of users of debian-base.
    * debian-base version 0.3.1 is already available.

* PodDisruptionBudget now uses [ControllerRef](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/design-proposals/api-machinery/controller-ref.md) to make the right decisions about Pod eviction even if the built in application controllers have overlapping selectors.

### **Security**
#### Admission Control

### Feature

- Kubernetes is now built with Golang 1.16.10 (#106223, @cpanato) [SIG Cloud Provider, Instrumentation, Release and Testing]
- Update debian-base, debian-iptables, setcap images to pick up CVE fixes
  - Debian-base to v1.9.0
  - Debian-iptables to v1.6.7
  - setcap to v2.0.4 (#106143, @cpanato) [SIG Release and Testing]

### Failing Test

- 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.
