leave unused rules in iptables for a while (up to `--iptables-sync-period`)
  before deleting them. This improves performance by not requiring it to
  check for stale rules on every sync. (In smaller clusters, it will still
  remove unused rules immediately once they are no longer used.)

`CRIContainerLogRotation`. The flags `--container-log-max-size` and `--container-log-max-files` can be used to configure the rotation behavior. ([#59898](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59898), [@Random-Liu](https://github.com/Random-Liu))

* Fixed a bug where if an error was returned that was not an `autorest.DetailedError` we would return `"not found", nil` which caused nodes to go to `NotReady` state. ([#57484](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57484), [@br...

plugin and the `kubernetes.io/enforce-mountable-secrets` annotation are used together with ephemeral containers.

**Note**: This only impacts the cluster if the ServiceAccount admission plugin is used (most cluster should have this on by default as recommended in https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/admission-controllers/#serviceaccount), the `kubernetes.io/enforce-mountable-secrets` annotation is used by a service account (this annotation is not added by default), and...

   * -viper-config can be used to set also the options defined by command line flags
   * the default config file is "e2e.yaml/toml/json/..." and the test starts when no such config is found (as before) but if -viper-config is used, the config file must exist
   * -viper-config can be used to select a file with full path, with or without file suffix

- Add ImageMaximumGCAge field to Kubelet configuration, which allows a user to set the maximum age an image is unused before it's garbage collected. ([#121275](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121275), [@haircommander](https://github.com/haircommander)) [SIG API Machinery and Node]

- Dynamic provisions that create iSCSI PVs can now ensure that multipath is used by specifying 2 or more target portals in the PV, which will cause kubelet to wait up to 10 seconds for the multipath device. PVs with...

significantly. Instead of hard-coding the parameters for the kubelet in the dropin, a structured configuration file for the kubelet is used, and is expected to be present in `/var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml`. For runtime-detected, instance-specific configuration values, a environment file with dynamically-generated flags at `kubeadm init` or `kubeadm join` run time is used. Finally, if you want to override something specific for the kubelet that can't be done via the kubeadm Configuration file (which is...

- The `IPTablesOwnershipCleanup` feature (KEP-3178) is now GA; kubelet no longer
  creates the `KUBE-MARK-DROP` chain (which has been unused for several releases)
  or the `KUBE-MARK-MASQ` chain (which is now only created by kube-proxy). ([#119374](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119374), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship))
