- Migrated `pkg/controller/nodeipam/ipam/cloud_cidr_allocator.go, pkg/controller/nodeipam/ipam/multi_cidr_range_allocator.go pkg/controller/nodeipam/ipam/range_allocator.go pkg/controller/nodelifecycle/node_lifecycle_controller.go` to structured logging ([#112670](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112670), [@yangjunmyfm192085](https://github.com/yangjunmyfm192085))...

- Dynamic resource allocation: when a claim uses "wait for first consumer" allocation (the default), then it will now get deallocated after it was used by a pod. That ensures that the next pod isn't affected by previous scheduling decision and that resources are not kept allocated unless really needed. If keeping a claim allocated is desired, use "immediate allocation." ([#118936](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118936), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

    * It is intended to supersede the logic that is currently in range_allocator
    * and cloud_cidr_allocator. (ALPHA FEATURE)
    * Note: for this change, the other allocators still exist and are the default.
    * It supports two modes:

* The LocalStorageCapacityIsolation feature is beta and enabled by default.  The LocalStorageCapacityIsolation feature added a new resource type ResourceEphemeralStorage "ephemeral-storage" so that this resource can be allocated, limited, and consumed as the same way as CPU/memory. All the features related to resource management (resource request/limit, quota, limitrange) are available for local ephemeral storage. This local ephemeral storage represents the storage for root...

- 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 specify them. ([#104673](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104673),...

#### Other deprecations:
- The k8s.io/node-api component is no longer updated. Instead, use the RuntimeClass types located within k8s.io/api, and the generated clients located within k8s.io/client-go ([#87503](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87503), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG Node and Release]

* Applies zone labels to vSphere Volumes and honors allowedTopologies when provisioning. ([#74654](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/74654), [@subramanian-neelakantan](https://github.com/subramanian-neelakantan))
* Re-issue Allocate grpc calls before starting a container that requests device-plugin resources if the cached state is missing. ([#73824](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73824), [@jiayingz](https://github.com/jiayingz))

- Fixed a bug where the CPU set allocated to an init container, with containerRestartPolicy of `Always`, were erroneously reused by a regular container. ([#119447](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119447), [@gjkim42](https://github.com/gjkim42)) [SIG Node and Testing]

- New feature gate, ServiceIPStaticSubrange, to enable the new strategy in the Service IP allocators, so the IP range is subdivided and dynamic allocated ClusterIP addresses for Services are allocated preferently from the upper range.
