- Added a new alpha API: ClusterTrustBundle (`certificates.k8s.io/v1alpha1`).
  A ClusterTrustBundle may be used to distribute [X.509](https://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-X.509) trust anchors to workloads within the cluster. ([#113218](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113218), [@ahmedtd](https://github.com/ahmedtd)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth and Testing]

- Add a new `distribute-cpus-across-numa` option to the static `CPUManager` policy. When enabled, this will trigger the `CPUManager` to evenly distribute CPUs across NUMA nodes in cases where more than one NUMA node is required to satisfy the allocation. ([#105631](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105631), [@klueska](h...

- Added a delay to node updates after kubelet startup. A random offset, based on the configured `nodeStatusReportFrequency`, helped distribute traffic and load from node status updates more evenly over time. The initial status update could occur up to 50% earlier or later than the regular schedule.

* Lays groundwork for OIDC distributed claims handling in the apiserver authentication token checker. ([#63213](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/63213), [@filmil](https://github.com/filmil))
    * A distributed claim allows the OIDC provider to delegate a claim to a
    * separate URL.  Distributed claims are of the form as seen below, and are

* Fix shebangs in charm actions to use python3 ([#42058](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/42058), [@Cynerva](https://github.com/Cynerva))
* K8s master charm now properly keeps distributed master files in sync for an HA control plane. ([#41351](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/41351), [@chuckbutler](https://github.com/chuckbutler))

- Add alpha support for HostProcess containers on Windows ([#99576](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99576), [@marosset](https://github.com/marosset)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, Node, Testing and Windows]
- Add distributed tracing to the `kube-apiserver`. It is can be enabled with the feature gate `APIServerTracing` ([#94942](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94942), [@dashpole](https://github.com/dashpole))

## Changes by Kind

### API Change

- A new (alpha) field, `trafficDistribution`, has been added to the Service `spec`.
  This field provides a way to express preferences for how traffic is distributed to the endpoints for a Service.

- The `client.authentication.k8s.io/v1alpha1` ExecCredential has been removed. If you are using a client-go credential plugin that relies on the v1alpha1 API please contact the distributor of your plugin for instructions on how to migrate to the v1 API.
