- On single-stack configured (IPv4 or IPv6, but not both) clusters, Services which are both headless (no clusterIP) and selectorless (empty or undefined selector) will report `ipFamilyPolicy RequireDualStack` and will have entries in `ipFamilies[]` for both IPv4 and IPv6.  This is a change from alpha, but does not have any impact on the manually-specified Endpoints and EndpointSlices for the Service....

- Empty values are no longer assigned to undefined resources (CPU or memory) when storing the resources allocated to the pod in checkpoint. ([#117615](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117615), [@aheng-ch](https://github.com/aheng-ch))

    Potential impacts:

Its type must be a <a href="#Type_definitions">defined</a> type <code>T</code> or a
pointer to a defined type <code>T</code>, possibly followed by a list of type parameter
names <code>[P1, P2, …]</code> enclosed in square brackets.
<code>T</code> is called the receiver <i>base type</i>. A receiver base type cannot be
a pointer or interface type and it must be defined in the same package as the method.

- Improved scheduler performance when no scoring plugins were defined.
   ([#122058](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122058), [@aleksandra-malinowska](https://github.com/aleksandra-malinowska))
- Improved scheduler performance when no scoring plugins were defined.

In-tree bug fixes and improvements included:
