To activate this feature, users can set the `ENABLE_CLIENT_GO_WATCH_LIST_ALPHA` environmental variable.
  It is important to note that the server must support streaming for this feature to function properly.
  If streaming is not supported by the server, the reflector will revert to the previous method

### Container Images

All container images are available as manifest lists and support the described
architectures. It is also possible to pull a specific architecture directly by
adding the "-$ARCH" suffix  to the container image name.

- Kube-apiserver: `gzip` compression switched from level 4 to level 1 to improve large list call latencies in exchange for higher network bandwidth usage (10-50% higher). This increases the headroom before very large unpaged list calls exceed request timeout limits. ([#112299](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112299), [@shyamjvs](https://github.com/shyamjvs))

  - A `create` or `update` API request with duplicate items in a keyed list no longer wipes out managedFields. Examples include env var entries with the same name, or port entries with the same containerPort in a pod spec.
  - A server-side apply request that makes unrelated changes to an object which has duplicate items in a keyed list no longer fails, and leaves the existing duplicate items as-is.

### Bug or Regression

- Fix list cost estimation in Priority and Fairness for list requests with metadata.name specified. ([#112557](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112557), [@marseel](https://github.com/marseel)) [SIG API Machinery]

- Updates `kubectl kustomize` and `kubectl apply -k` to Kustomize v4.5.4 ([#108994](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108994), [@KnVerey](https://github.com/KnVerey))
- When invoked with `-list-images`, the `e2e.test` binary now also lists the images that might be needed for storage tests. ([#108458](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108458), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

  - *apiserver_cache_list_returned_objects_total*: Counter of objects returned for a LIST request from watch cache, broken down by resource_prefix
  - *apiserver_storage_list_total*: Counter of LIST requests served from etcd, broken down by resource

<p>
Within a parenthesized <code>const</code> declaration list the
expression list may be omitted from any but the first ConstSpec.
Such an empty list is equivalent to the textual substitution of the
first preceding non-empty expression list and its type if any.
Omitting the list of expressions is therefore equivalent to
repeating the previous list.  The number of identifiers must be equal

- Resolve a "concurrent map read and map write" crashing error in the kubelet ([#95111](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95111), [@choury](https://github.com/choury)) [SIG Node]
- Resolves spurious `Failed to list *v1.Secret` or `Failed to list *v1.ConfigMap` messages in kubelet logs. ([#99538](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99538), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG Auth and Node]
