* Upgrade Node Problem Detector to v0.4.1. New features added:

    * Add /dev/kmsg support for kernel log parsing. ([#112](https://github.com/kubernetes/node-problem-detector/pull/112), [@euank](https://github.com/euank))

    * Add ABRT support. ([#105](https://github.com/kubernetes/node-problem-detector/pull/105), [@juliusmilan](https://github.com/juliusmilan))

* **[beta]** Node Problem Detector is beta (v0.3.0) now. New
  features added into node-problem-detector:v0.3.0:
  - Add support for journald.
  - The ability to monitor any system daemon logs. Previously only kernel
    logs were supported.

- Added request...

- A new feature was enabled to improve the performance of the iptables mode of `kube-proxy` in large clusters. No action was required, however:
  

- Fixes a regression introduced in 1.29 where conntrack entries for UDP connections
  to deleted pods did not get cleaned up correctly, which could (among other things)
  cause DNS problems when DNS pods were restarted. ([#127808](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/127808), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship)) [SIG Network]

  stop using `--node-ip`. (In particular, this fixes the problem where people who
  were unnecessarily using `--node-ip` with an external cloud provider in 1.23,
  and then running into problems with 1.24, could not fix the problem by just
  removing the unnecessary `--node-ip` from the kubelet arguments, because

- The `kubelet` now reports distinguishes log messages about certificate rotation for its client cert and server cert separately to make debugging problems with one or the other easier. ([#101252](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101252), [@smarterclayton](https://github.com/smarterclayton))

- In dual-stack clusters, kubelet will now set up both IPv4 and IPv6 iptables rules, which may
  fix some problems, eg with HostPorts. ([#94474](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94474), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship)) [SIG Network and Node]
