`volume_manager_total_volumes`
  ([#84907](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84907), [@RainbowMango](https://github.com/RainbowMango))
- Deprecated metric `rest_client_request_latency_seconds` has been turned off. ([#83836](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83836), [@RainbowMango](https://github.com/RainbowMango))
- Following metrics from kubelet are now marked as with the ALPHA stability level:

- DRAResourceClaimDeviceStatus is now turned on by default allowing DRA-Drivers to report device status data for each allocated device. ([#130814](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130814), [@LionelJouin](https://github.com/LionelJouin)) [SIG Network and Node]

    * + to use:
    * A new service spec field `Service.Spec.IPFamily` has been added. The default of this field is family of (first service cidr in --service-cluster-ip-range flag). The value is defaulted as described above  once the feature gate is turned on. Here are the possible values for this field:

  * Hard Eviction Thresholds will be subtracted from Capacity while calculating
    Node Allocatable. This will result in a reduction of schedulable capacity in
    clusters post upgrade where kubelet hard eviction has been turned on for
    memory. To opt-out set `--experimental-allocatable-ignore-eviction=true`.
  * More details on these feature here:
    https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/reserve-compute-resources/

- Promoted the feature gate `ValidtaingAdmissionPolicy` to beta, and it is turned off by default. ([#119409](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119409), [@alexzielenski](https://github.com/alexzielenski))

  - A custom resource is considered to participate the spec/status convention if and only if the "CustomResourceSubresources" feature gate is turned on and the CRD has `.spec.subresources.status={}`.
- Fixed patch/update operations on multi-version custom resources ([#70087](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70087), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

  - *apiserver_storage_list_returned_objects_total*: Counter of objects returned for a LIST request from etcd, broken down by resource ([#104983](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104983), [@MikeSpreitzer](https://github.com/MikeSpreitzer)) [SIG API Machinery and Instrumentation]

- Controller manager serve workqueue metrics ([#87967](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87967), [@zhan849](https://github.com/zhan849)) [SIG API Machinery]
- Following metrics have been turned off:
  - kubelet_pod_worker_latency_microseconds
  - kubelet_pod_start_latency_microseconds
  - kubelet_cgroup_manager_latency_microseconds
  - kubelet_pod_worker_start_latency_microseconds

- GCE clusters will include some IP ranges that are not used on the public Internet in the list of non-masq IPs. Bumped ip-masq-agent version to v2.3.0 with flag `nomasq-all-reserved-ranges` turned on. ([#77458](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77458), [@grayluck](https://github.com/grayluck))

- Updated `IsDNS1123SubdomainWithUnderscore` so that, when it returned an error, it also returned the correct regex information (`dns1123SubdomainFmtWithUnderscore`). ([#132034](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132034), [@ChosenFoam](https://github.com/ChosenFoam))
