- Registered metric `apiserver_request_body_size_bytes` to track the size distribution of requests by `resource` and `verb`. ([#120474](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120474),...

  - `resourceclaim_controller_creates_total` count metric with labels `admin_access` (true or false), `status` (failure or success) to track the total number of `ResourceClaims` creation requests

- Trace output in apiserver logs is more organized and comprehensive. Traces are nested, and for all non-long running request endpoints, the entire filter chain is instrumented (e.g. authentication check is included). ([#88936](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88936), [@jpbet...

- Fix a bug in cronjob controller where already created jobs may be missing from the status. ([#120649...

- The iptables mode of kube-proxy now tracks accepted packets that are destined for node-ports on localhost by introducing `kubeproxy_iptables_localhost_nodeports_accepted_packets_total` metric.

* [beta] User-provided apiservers can be aggregated (served along with) the rest of the Kubernetes API. See [Extending the Kubernetes API with the aggregation layer](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/api-extension/apiserver-aggregation/), [Configure the aggregation layer](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-kubernetes-api/configure-aggregation-layer/), and [Setup...

three features to beta in the 1.10 release.  First, [CPU Manager](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/cpu-management-policies/), which allows users to request exclusive CPU cores.  This helps performance in a variety of use-cases, including network latency sensitive applications, as well as applications that benefit from CPU cache residency.  Next, [Huge Pages](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/manage-hugepages/scheduling-hugepages/), which allows pods to consume either 2Mi or 1Gi Huge...

- A new kubelet metric `image_pull_duration_seconds` was added. The metric tracks the duration (in seconds) it takes for an image to be pulled, including the time spent in the waiting queue of image puller. The metric is broken down by bucketed image size. ([#121719](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121719), [@rui...

- Fixed an issue in the Windows kube-proxy (winkernel) where IPv4 and IPv6 Service load balancers could be incorrectly shared, causing broken dual-stack Service behavior. The kube-proxy now tracks load balancers per IP family, enabling correct support for PreferDualStack and RequireDualStack Services on Windows nodes.

### Feature

- A new Priority and Fairness metric 'apiserver_flowcontrol_work_estimate_seats_samples' has been added that tracks the estimated seats associated with a request. ([#106628](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/106628), [@tkashem](https://github.com/tkashem))
