- When using `kubectl replace` (or the equivalent API call) on a Service, the caller no longer needs to do a read-modify-write cycle to fetch the allocated values for `.spec.clusterIP` and `.spec.ports[].nodePort`.  Instead the API server will automatically carry these forward from the original object when the new object does not...

- The `wait.Poll*` and `wait.ExponentialBackoff*` functions have been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.  Callers should switch to using `wait.PollUntilContextCancel`, `wait.PollUntilContextTimeout`,...

    * Added exported env vars to kubectl plugins so that plugin developers have access to global flags, namespace, the plugin descriptor and the full path to the caller binary.
* Ignored mirror pods in PodPreset admission plugin. ([#45958](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/45958), [@k82cn](https://github.com/k82cn))

- Graduated `AdmissionWebhookMatchCondition` feature to beta. ([#119380](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119380), [@a-hilaly](https://github.com/a-hilaly))

- The new flag `--chunk-size=SIZE` has been added to `kubectl describe`. This flag may be used to alter the number of items or disable this feature when `0` is passed. ([#101171](https://github.com/kubernetes/ku...

### Contextual Logging in Alpha

Kubernetes 1.24 has introduced [contextual logging](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/3077)
that enables the caller of a function to control all aspects of logging (output formatting, verbosity, additional values and names).

### Avoiding Collisions in IP allocation to Services

### Bug or Regression

- Fix Topology Aware Hints not working when the `topology.kubernetes.io/zone` label is added after Node creation
  - Fix a data race in TopologyCache when `AddHints` and `SetNodes` are called concurrently ([#117267](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117267), [@tnqn](https://github.com/tnqn)) [SIG Apps and Network]

- For raw block CSI volumes on Kubernetes, kubelet was incorrectly calling CSI NodeStageVolume for every single "map" (i.e. raw block "mount") operation for a volume already attached to the node. This PR ensures it is only called once per volume per node. ([#112403](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112403), [@akankshakumari393](https://github.com/akankshakumari393)) [SIG Storage]

### Bug or Regression

- Currently, NodeAdded QueueingHint could not always be called because of the internal feature called preCheck.
  It's definitely not something expected for plugin developers,
  and we're trying to eventually remove preCheck completely to fix this.
