The `skippedScorePlugins` number might be greater than `enabledScorePlugins`, 
  so when initializing a slice the cap(len(skippedScorePlugins) - len(enabledScorePlugins)) is negative, 
  which is not allowed. ([#121666](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121666), [@kerthcet](https://github.com/kerthcet)) [SIG Scheduling]

- Set kubelet option `--volume-stats-agg-period` to negative value to disable volume calculations. ([#96675](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96675), [@pacoxu](https://github.com/pacoxu)) [SIG Node]

### Failing Test

* CDK nginx ingress is now handled via a daemon set. ([#57530](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57530), [@hyperbolic2346](https://github.com/hyperbolic2346))

* Move local PV negative scheduling tests to integration ([#57570](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57570), [@sbezverk](https://github.com/sbezverk))

* kubectl built for darwin from darwin now enables cgo to use the system-native C libraries for DNS resolution. Cross-compiled kubectl (e.g. from an official kubernetes release) still uses the go-native netgo DNS implementation.  ([#64219](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64219), [@ixdy](https://github.com/ixdy))

- Fixed binding of block PersistentVolumes / PersistentVolumeClaims when BlockVolume feature is off. ([#84049](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84049), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane))
- Report non-confusing error for negative storage size in PVC spec. ([#82759](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82759), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))

*   Relative paths in the Kubelet's local config files (`--init-config-dir`) will now be resolved relative to the location of the containing files. ([#55648](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55648),[ @mtaufen](https://github.com/mtaufen))

- in an `--encryption-provider-config` config file, an explicit `cacheSize: 0` parameter previously silently defaulted to caching 1000 keys. In Kubernetes 1.18, this now returns a config validation error. To disable caching, you can specify a negative cacheSize value in Kubernetes 1.18+.

  The `skippedScorePlugins` number might be greater than `enabledScorePlugins`, 
  so when initializing a slice the cap(len(skippedScorePlugins) - len(enabledScorePlugins)) is negative, 
  which is not allowed. ([#121667](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121667), [@kerthcet](https://github.com/kerthcet)) [SIG Scheduling]

    * To avoid that negative effect only use per pod metrics from pods that are:
    * - ready (so metrics about them should be valid), or

* In GCE, add measures to prevent corruption of known_tokens.csv. ([#49897](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49897), [@mikedanese](https://github.com/mikedanese))
* kubeadm: Fix join preflight check false negative ([#49825](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49825), [@erhudy](https://github.com/erhudy))
