* [beta] SelfSubjectRulesReview, an API that lets a user see what actions they can perform with a namespace, has been added to the authorization.k8s.io API group. This bulk query is intended to enable UIs to show/hide actions based on the end user, and for users to quickly reason about their own permissions.

* `--show-all`, which only affected pods, and even then only for human readable/non-API printers, is inert in v1.11, and will be removed in a future release. ([#60793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60793), [@charrywanganthony](https://github...

- Kubeadm: added `show-join-command` as a new separate phase at the end of `kubeadm init`. You can skip printing the join information by using `kubeadm init --skip-phases=show-join-command`. Executing only this phase on demand will throw an error because the phase needs dependencies such as bootstrap tokens to be pre-populated. ([#111512](https:...

- Kubectl: `kubectl get` will omit managed fields by default now. Users could set `--show-managed-fields` to true to show managedFields when the output format is either `json` or `yaml`.

    * Rebase image on debian-base:v1.0.0
* If a pod has a running instance, the stats of its previously terminated instances will not show up in the kubelet summary stats any more for CRI runtimes like containerd and cri-o. ([#77426](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77426), [@Random-Liu](https://github.com/Random-Liu))

- Kubeadm: fix a bug when using external CA mode and trying to upgrade to 1.29 using "kubeadm upgrade apply". Show a warning that kubeadm cannot sign the new "super-admin.conf" as the host does not have a CA and show some instructions on how to manually migrate to the separate "admin.conf" and "super-admin.conf" kubeconfig files.

- Kubeadm: during the preflight check "CreateJob" of "kubeadm upgrade", check if there are no nodes where a Pod can schedule. If there are none, show a warning and skip this preflight check. This can happen in single node clusters where the only node was drained.
