[overwrite of manual edits to GCP Health Checks](https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress/issues/842)
  managed by the GLBC Ingress Controller. This can cause the health checks to start failing,
  requiring you to reapply the manual edits.
  * This issue does not affect clusters that were already running Kubernetes v1.6.4 or higher.
  * This issue does not affect Health Checks that were left in the configuration

    *  -  the `health` plugin now includes the `lameduck` option by default, which waits for a duration before shutting down.
* Kubeadm now includes CoreDNS version 1.6.5 ([#85108](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85108), [@rajansandeep](https://github.com/rajansandeep))
    *  - `kubernetes` plugin adds metrics to measure kubernetes control plane latency.

components, but only worked when those components were local to the API server, and when kube-scheduler and kube-controller-manager exposed unsecured health endpoints. Instead of this API, etcd health is included in the kube-apiserver health check and kube-scheduler/kube-controller-manager health checks can be made directly against those components' health endpoints.

#### Load Balancing

- kubeadm: use etcd's /health endpoint for a HTTP liveness probe on localhost instead of having a custom health check using etcdctl ([#81385](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81385), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))

### API Change

- Add auth API to get self subject attributes (new selfsubjectreviews API is added). 
  The corresponding command for kubctl is provided - `kubectl auth whoami`. ([#111333](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111333), [@nabokihms](https://github.com/nabokihms)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth, CLI and Testing]

- Remove /livez livezchecks for KMS v1 and v2 to ensure KMS health does not cause kube-apiserver restart. KMS health checks are still in place as a healthz and readiness checks. ([#120583](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120583), [@ritazh](https://github.com/ritazh)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth and Testing]
- The CloudDualStackNodeIPs feature is now beta, meaning that when using

- Kubeadm: modified the etcd static Pod `liveness` and `readiness` probes to use a new etcd `v3.5.3+` HTTP(s) health check endpoint `/health?serializable=true` that allows to track the health of individual etcd members and not fail all members if a single member is not healthy in the etcd cluster. ([#110072](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/110072), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123))

- Exposed the kube-scheduler "/livez" and "/readz" endpoints for health checks that are in compliance with https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/using-api/health-checks/#api-endpoints-for-health.
