- When `SchedulerQueueingHint` is enabled,
  the scheduler's in-tree plugins now subscribe to specific node events to decide whether to requeue Pods.
  This allows the scheduler to handle cluster events faster with less memory.

  Specific node events include updates to taints, tolerations or allocatable.

- Updated the HPA controller so that it no longer emitted a `FailedRescale` event if a scale operation initially failed due to a conflict but succeeded after a retry; it now emitted a `SuccessfulRescale` event in this case. A `FailedRescale` event was still emitted if all retries were exhausted. ([#132007](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132007), [@AumPatel1](https://github.com/AumPatel1)) [SIG Apps...

- `client-go` event library allows customizing spam filtering function. 
  It is now possible to override `SpamKeyFunc`, which is used by event filtering to detect spam in the events. ([#103918](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103918), [@olagacek](https://github.com/olagacek))
- `client-go`, using log level 9, traces the following events of a HTTP request:
      - DNS lookup
      - TCP dialing

- `kubectl` will not print events if `--show-events=false` argument is passed to
  describe PVC subcommand. ([#120380](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120380), [@MaGaroo](https://github.com/MaGaroo))
- `scheduler`: Fixed missing field `apiVersion` from events reported by the taint

- Fix a bug where events/v1 Events with similar event type and reporting instance were not aggregated by client-go. ([#112365](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112365), [@dgrisonnet](https://github.com/dgrisonnet)) [SIG API Machinery and Instrumentation]

- Fix a 1.28 regression in scheduler: a pod with concurrent events could incorrectly get moved to the unschedulable queue where it could got stuck until the next periodic purging after 5 minutes if there was no other event for it.

  - The `export` query parameter for list API calls, deprecated since v1.14, will be removed in v1.18.
  - The `series.state` field in the events.k8s.io/v1beta1 Event API is deprecated and will be removed in v1.18 ([#75987](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75987), [@yastij](https://github.com/yastij))
