- Added `apiserver.latency.k8s.io/authentication` annotation to the audit log to record the
  time spent authenticating slow requests. Also added `apiserver.latency.k8s.io/authorization`
  annotation to record the time spent authorizing slow requests. ([#130571](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130571), [@hakuna-matatah](https://github.com/hakuna-matatah))

- Fix the regression with the slow pods termination. Before this fix pods may take an additional time to terminate - up to one minute. Reversing the change that ensured that CNI resources cleaned up when the pod is removed on API server. ([#97980](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97980),...

- E2E storage tests: setting test tags like `[Slow]` via the `DriverInfo.FeatureTag` field is no longer supported. ([#121391](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121391), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

- kubeadm: ensured that a variety of API server requests were retried during "init", "join", "upgrade", "reset" workflows. Prior to this change, some API server requests, such as creating or updating ConfigMaps, were "one-shot" - i.e., they could fail if the API server dropped connectivity for a very short period of time.

- TLS timeouts have been extended to work around slow arm64 math/big functions. ([#66264](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66264), [@joejulian](https://github.com/joejulian))

- Deprecated the `apiserver_request_slo_duration_seconds` metric for v1.27 in favor of `apiserver_request_sli_duration_seconds` for naming consistency purposes with other SLI-specific metrics and to avoid any confusion between SLOs and SLIs.

### Simplified Multi-point plugin configuration for scheduler

The kube-scheduler is adding a new, simplified config field for Plugins to allow multiple extension points to be enabled in one spot.
The new `multiPoint` plugin field is intended to simplify most scheduler setups for administrators.
Plugins that are enabled via `multiPoint` will automatically be registered for each individual extension point that they implement.

  For more information, see [#56357](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/56357).

*   Audit logging is slow because writes to the log are performed synchronously with requests to the log. This issue will be fixed in a future release.

  For more information, see [#53006](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/53006).

- Component-base/logs: when compiled with Go >= 1.21, component-base will automatically configure the slog default logger together with initializing klog.
