* 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.
    *  -  the `health` plugin now includes the `lameduck` option by default, which waits for a duration before shutting down.

  The new feature gate activates a framework for fine-grained filtering of events related to scheduler plugins.
  In this release, no default scheduling plugins make use of the hinting framework, so you should not expect any behavior changes. ([#119328](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119328), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho)) [SIG Scheduling]

- Sync node status during kubelet node shutdown.
  Adds an pod admission handler that rejects new pods when the node is in progress of shutting down. ([#98005](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98005), [@wzshiming](https://github.com/wzshiming)) [SIG Node]

- Fixed a bug where hard evictions due to resource pressure allowed pods
  to use the full termination grace period instead of shutting down instantly. 
  This bug also affected force deleted pods. Both cases now receive a termination grace period of 1 second. ([#124063](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124063), [@olyazavr](https://github.com/olyazavr))

- Kubelet's Node Grace Shutdown will terminate probes when shutting down ([#105215](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105215), [@rphillips](https://github.com/rphillips))

- Fix a number of race conditions in the kubelet when pods are starting up or shutting down that might cause pods to take a long time to shut down.

*   Azure NSG rules can be consolidated to reduce the likelihood of hitting Azure resource limits (available only in regions where the Augmented Security Groups preview is available).  ([#55740](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55740), [@itowlson](https://github.com/itowlson))
