* Please note the existing pods with the alpha toleration should be updated by user himself to tolerate the GA taint.
* add GRS, RAGRS storage account type support for azure disk ([#55931](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55931), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))

### SIG Apps

[SIG Apps][] focuses on the Kubernetes APIs and the external tools that are required to deploy and operate Kubernetes workloads.

- Introduce a churn operator to scheduler perf testing framework. ([#98900](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98900), [@Huang-Wei](https://github.com/Huang-Wei)) [SIG Scheduling and Testing]

- Kubenet: added HostPort IPv6 support.  HostPortManager: operates only with one IP family, failing if receives port mapping entries with different IP families.  HostPortSyncer: operates only with one IP family, skipping portmap entries with different IP families ([#80854](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80854), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

- Feature [#566](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/566) enabling CoreDNS as the default for kube-up deployments was dropped from the release due to a scalability memory resource consumption issue observed. If a cluster operator is considering using CoreDNS on a cluster greater than 2000 nodes, it may be necessary to give more consideration to CoreDNS pod memory resource limits and experimentally measure that memory usage versus cluster resource availability.

- Kubeadm: tolerate whitespace when validating certificate authority PEM data in kubeconfig files ([#86705](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/86705), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

- We no longer allow the cluster operator to delete any suggested priority & fairness bootstrap configuration object. If a cluster operator removes a suggested configuration, it will be restored by the apiserver. ([#102067](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102067), [@tkashem](https://github.com/tkashem))

* Fix kubectl get -f <file> -o <nondefault printer> so it prints all items in the file ([#39038](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/39038), [@ncdc](https://github.com/ncdc))
* Endpoints, that tolerate unready Pods, are now listing Pods in state Terminating as well ([#37093](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/37093), [@simonswine](https://github.com/simonswine))

clusters, both the old taint `node-role.kubernetes.io/master:NoSchedule` and new taint `node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane:NoSchedule` will be added to control plane nodes. In release 1.20 (`first stage`), a release note instructed to preemptively tolerate the new taint. For clusters that are being upgraded to 1.24 with `kubeadm upgrade apply`, the command will add the new taint `node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane:NoSchedule` to existing control plane nodes. Please adapt your infrastructure to these...

  - Please adapt your workloads to tolerate the same future taint preemptively.
    
- Kubeadm: improve the validation of serviceSubnet and podSubnet.
