- Kubeadm: do not exit with an error if the "super-admin.conf" cannot create a ClusterRoleBinding for the "cluster-admin" user, due to the ClusterRoleBInding already existing. ([#125821](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125821), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))...

    * Add validation for upstreamNameserver port.
    * Update go version to 1.9.3.
* CRI: define the mount behavior when host path does not exist: runtime should report error if the host path doesn't exist ([#61460](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61460), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))

  - Migrate `pkg/kubelet/(dockershim, network)` to structured logging
  Exit code changed from 255 to 1 ([#98939](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98939), [@yangjunmyfm192085](https://github.com/yangjunmyfm192085)) [SIG Network and Node]
  - Migrate `pkg/kubelet/certificate` to structured logging

- `kubeadm`: now respects user provided `kubeconfig` during discovery process ([#113998](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113998), [@SataQiu](https://github.com/SataQiu))
- `kubectl port-forward` now exits with exit code 1 when remote connection is
  lost ([#114460](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114460), [@brianpursley](https://github.com/brianpursley))

* `kubectl edit` now edits objects exactly as they were retrieved from the API. This allows using `kubectl edit` with third-party resources and extension API servers. Because client-side conversion is no longer done, the `--output-version` option is deprecated for `kubectl edit`. To edit using a particular API version, fully-qualify the resource, version, and group used to fetch the object (for example,...

- `kubectl diff` now returns 1 only on diff finding changes, and >1 on kubectl errors. The "exit status code 1" message has also been muted. ([#87437](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87437), [@apelisse](https://github.com/apelisse)) [SIG CLI and Testing]

## Dependencies

- The `kubectl patch` command no longer exits with exit code 1 when a redundant patch results in a no-op ([#66725](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66725), [@juanvallejo](https://github.com/juanvallejo))

* Add CSI Migration Shim for VerifyVolumesAreAttached and BulkVolumeVerify ([#80443](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80443), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))

- Increased log level to 2 for IPVS graceful termination ([#78395](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78395), [@andrewsykim](https://github.com/andrewsykim))
- kube-proxy: os exit when CleanupAndExit is set to true ([#76732](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76732), [@JieJhih](https://github.com/JieJhih))

- The `system:aggregate-to-edit` role no longer includes write access to the Endpoints API. For new Kubernetes 1.22 clusters, the `edit` and `admin` roles will no longer include that access in newly created Kubernetes 1.22 clusters. This will have no affect on existing clusters upgrading to Kubernetes 1.22. To retain write access to Endpoints in the aggregated `edit` and `admin` roles for newly created 1.22 clusters, refer to https://github.com...
