- Automatically copy `topology.k8s.io/zone`, `topology.k8s.io/region` and `kubernetes.io/hostname` labels from Node objects to Pods when they are scheduled to a node (via the `pods/binding` endpoint) to allow applications that need to be explicitly aware of their assigned node topology to access this information via the downward API, rather than requiring permission to `get node` objects (exposing the...

- Graduated the `PodTopologyLabelsAdmission` feature gate to Beta and enabled it by default.
  Pods now receive `topology.kubernetes.io/zone` and `topology.kubernetes.io/region` labels automatically when their assigned Node has these labels. ([#135158](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/135158), [@andrewsykim](https://github.com/andrewsykim))

- Prevented any type of CPU/Memory alignment or hint generation with the Topology Manager from the CPU or Memory Manager when pod-level resources were used in the Pod spec. ([#133279](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/133279), [@ffromani](https://github.com/ffromani)) [SIG Node and Testing]

- Fixed Cronjob `status.lastSuccessfulTime` not populated by a manually triggered ([#118530](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118530), [@carlory](https://github.com/carlory))
- Fixed Topology Aware Hints not working when the `topology.kubernetes.io/zone` label is added after Node creation. ([#117245](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117245), [@tnqn](https://github.com/tnqn))

  that was previously rejected by the VolemeZone plugin if  addition/update of node, 
  addition/update of PV, addition/update of PVC, or addition of SC matches pod's topology settings. ([#124996](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124996), [@Gekko0114](https://github.com/Gekko0114)) [SIG Scheduling and Storage]
- Kube-scheduler implements scheduling hints for the VolumeZone plugin.

- Windows: Support CPU and Topology manager on Windows. ([#125296](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125296), [@jsturtevant](https://github.com/jsturtevant)) [SIG Node and Windows]
