flag `--experimental-patches` is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release. You can migrate to using the new flag `--patches`. Add a new field `{Init|Join}Configuration.patches.directory` that can be used for the same purpose. For `init` and `join` it is now recommended that you migrate to configure patches via `{Init|Join}Configuration.patches.directory`. For the time being, these flags can be mixed with `--config`, but that might change in the future. On a command line, the last *patches...

- Kubeadm: warn but do not error out on missing "ca.key" files for root CA, front-proxy CA and etcd CA, during "kubeadm join --control-plane" if the user has provided all certificates, keys and kubeconfig files which require signing with the given CA keys. ([#94988](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94988), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster...

- Kubeadm: during join when a check is performed that a Node with the same name already exists in the cluster, make sure the NodeReady condition is properly validated ([#89602](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89602), [@kvaps](https://github.com/kvaps)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

* kubeadm: Fix a bug where if couple of CRIs are installed a user override of the CRI during join (via kubeadm join --cri-socket ...) is ignored and kubeadm bails out with an error ([#76505](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76505), [@rosti](https://github.com/rosti))

- Kubeadm: when adding new control plane nodes with "kubeadm join", ensure that the etcd member addition is performed only if a given member URL does not already exist in the list of members. Similarly, on "kubeadm reset" only remove an etcd member if its ID exists. ([#127621](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/127621),...

### (No, really, you MUST read this before you upgrade)

- Kubeadm: remove the deprecated flag `--experimental-patches` for the `init|join|upgrade` commands. The flag `--patches` is no longer allowed in a mixture with the flag `--config`. Please use the kubeadm configuration for setting patches for a node using `{Init|Join}Configuration.patches`. ([#104065](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104065), [@pacoxu](https://github.com/pacoxu))

- Kubeadm: added the experimental (alpha) feature gate `EtcdLearnerMode` that allows etcd members to be joined as learner and only then promoted as voting members ([#113318](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113318), [@pacoxu](https://github.com/pacoxu))

- kubeadm: increased the verbosity of API client dry-run actions during the subcommands "init", "join", "upgrade" and "reset". It also allowed dry-run on 'kubeadm join' even if there was no existing cluster by utilizing a faked, in-memory cluster-info ConfigMap. ([#126776](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126776), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))

- Kubeadm: fix the bug that configurable KubernetesVersion not respected during kubeadm join ([#111021](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111021), [@SataQiu](https://github.com/SataQiu)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]
