- Added a return value to `QueueingHint` to indicate an error. If `QueueingHint` returns an error,
  the scheduler logs it and treats the event as a `QueueAfterBackoff` so that
  the Pod won't be stuck in the unschedulable pod pool. ([#119290](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119290), [@carlory](https://github.com/carlory))

- Server Side Apply now treats LabelSelector fields as atomic (meaning the entire selector is managed by a single writer and updated together), since they contain interrelated and inseparable fields that do not merge in intuitive ways. ([#93901](https://github.com/kubernetes/k...

* Mark multi-scheduler graduation to beta and then v1. ([#38871](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/38871), [@k82cn](https://github.com/k82cn))
* Scheduler treats StatefulSet pods as belonging to a single equivalence class. ([#39718](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/39718), [@foxish](https://github.com/foxish))

- SSA treats certain structs as atomic ([#100684](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/100684), [@Jefftree](https://github.com/Jefftree)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth, Node and Storage]

- Fixes an issue affecting log rotation with CRI runtimes where kubelet tries to compress Windows logs before closing file handles ([#112483](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112483), [@ibabou](https://github.com/ibabou)) [SIG Node and Windows]

* This fix prevents a GCE PD volume from being mounted if the udev device link is stale and tries to correct the link. ([#66832](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66832), [@msau42](https://github.com/msau42))

* This fix prevents a GCE PD volume from being mounted if the udev device link is stale and tries to correct the link. ([#66832](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66832), [@msau42](https://github.com/msau42))

- Fixed Pod stuck in `Terminating` because of `GenerateUnmapVolumeFunc` missing `globalUnmapPath` when kubelet tries to clean up all volumes that failed reconstruction. ([#123032](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123032), [@carlory](https://github.com/carlory))

- Kubelet now tries to stop containers in unknown state once before restart or remove. ([#73802](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73802), [@Random-Liu](https://github.com/Random-Liu))
