- `(*"k8s.io/client-go/rest".Request).{Do,DoRaw,Stream,Watch}` now require callers to pass a `context.Context` as an argument. The context is used for timeout and cancellation signaling and to pass supplementary information to round trippers in the wrapped transport chain. If you don't need any of this functionality, it is sufficient to pass a context created with `context.Background()` to these functions. The `(*"k8s.io/client-go/rest".Request).Context` method...

- Pass additional flags to subpath mount to avoid flakes in certain conditions ([#104347](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104347), [@mauriciopoppe](https://github.com/mauriciopoppe)) [SIG Storage]

* Add a way to pass extra arguments to etcd. ([#63961](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/63961), [@mborsz](https://github.com/mborsz))

- E2e.test: removed the  `--viper-config` flag. If you were previously using this to pass flags to `e2e.test` via a file, you will need to pass them directly on the command line, e.g. `e2e.test --e2e-output-dir`.

* Resolves a bug that prevented sending a multi-version custom resource to an admission webhook. ([#79495](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/79495), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
* Pass-through volume MountOptions to global mount (NodeStageVolume) on the node for CSI ([#80191](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80191), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))

  Noteable changes:
  1. Populate new `RuntimeHandler` field in CRI's `ImageSpec` struct during image pulls from container runtimes.
  2. Pass `runtimeHandler` field in `RemoveImage()` call to container runtime in `kubelet`'s image garbage collection. ([#121456](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121456), [@kiashok](https://github.com/kiashok))

* Added a way to pass extra arguments to etcd. The these extra arguments can be used to adjust runtime configuration like heartbeat interval etc. ([#63961](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/63961), [@mborsz](https://github.com/mborsz))
