## Changelog since v1.8.13

### Other notable changes

* Bump version of prometheus-to-sd to 0.2.6 to decrease log noise and include latest security patches. ([#64963](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64963), [@loburm](https://github.com/loburm))

* Add /bin/tee symlink to bazel build for busybox, so that CI builds have /bin/tee ([#55417](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55417), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))
* Reduce log noise produced by prometheus-to-sd, by bumping it to version 0.2.2. ([#54635](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/54635), [@loburm](https://github.com/loburm))

- Reduced log verbosity for high-frequency, low-value log entries in Job, IPAM, and ReplicaSet controllers by adjusting them to V(2), V(4) and V(4) respectively. This change minimizes log noise while maintaining access to these logs when needed. ([#130591](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130591), [@fmuyassarov](https://github.com/fmuyassarov)) [SIG Apps and Network]

    * Fix NVML initialization race condition
    * Fix brtfs disk metrics when using a subdirectory of a subvolume
* Bump version of prometheus-to-sd to 0.2.6 to decrease log noise and include latest security patches. ([#64964](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64964), [@loburm](https://github.com/loburm))

- Kube-controller-manager: increased the global level for broadcaster's logging to 3 so that users can ignore event messages by lowering the logging level. It reduces information noise. ([#122293](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122293), [@mengjiao-liu](https://github.com/mengjiao-liu))

 - Reduced state change noise when volume expansion fails. Also mark certain failures as infeasible.
