- Describing the CRs will now hide `.metadata.managedFields` ([#114584](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114584), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))
- Discovery document will correctly return the resources for aggregated apiservers that do not implement aggregated disovery ([#115770](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115770), [@Jefftree](https://github.com/Jefftree))

- Fix race in alpha aggregated discovery handler
  Yes, discovery document will correctly return the resources for aggregated apiservers that do not implement aggregated disovery ([#115805](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115805), [@alexzielenski](https://github.com/alexzielenski)) [SIG API Machinery]

  - The disk-cached discovery client is moved from k8s.io/client-go/discovery to k8s.io/client-go/discovery/cached/disk.
The memory-cached discovery client is moved from k8s.io/client-go/discovery/cached to k8s.io/client-go/discovery/cached/memory.

  - Aggregated discovery requests can now timeout. Aggregated API servers must complete discovery calls within 5 seconds (other requests can take longer). Use the feature gate `EnableAggregatedDiscoveryTimeout=false` to temporarily revert behavior to the previous 30 second timeout if required (the temporary...

* attachdetach controller attaches volumes immediately when Pod's PVCs are bound ([#66863](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66863), [@cofyc](https://github.com/cofyc))
* kube-apiserver now includes all registered API groups in discovery, including registered extension API group/versions for unavailable extension API servers. ([#66932](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66932), [@nilebox](https://github.com/nilebox))

### **Cluster Lifecycle**

*   You must either specify the `--discovery-token-ca-cert-hash` flag to `kubeadm join`, or opt out of the CA pinning feature using `--discovery-token-unsafe-skip-ca-verification`.
*   The default `auto-detect` behavior of the kubelet's `--cloud-provider` flag is removed.

* Pass-through volume MountOptions to global mount (NodeStageVolume) on the node for CSI ([#80191](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80191), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))
* Fix error in `kubeadm join --discovery-file` when using discovery files with embedded credentials ([#80675](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80675), [@fabriziopandini](https://github.com/fabriziopandini))

* kube-apiserver now includes all registered API groups in discovery, including registered extension API group/versions for unavailable extension API servers. ([#66932](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66932), [@nilebox](https://github.com/nilebox))

* The kube-apiserver discovery APIs (for example, `/apis`) return information about the API groups being served, and can change dynamically.
During server startup, prior to the server reporting healthy (via `/healthz`), not all API groups may be reported.
Wait for the server to report healthy (via `/healthz`) before depending on the information provided by the discovery APIs.

- Fixed cluster autoscaler addon permissions so it can access batch/job. ([#69858](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69858), [@losipiuk](https://github.com/losipiuk))
