* Fixed kube-proxy to work correctly with iptables 1.6.2 and later. ([#60978](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60978), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship))

### Bug or Regression

- Fixes a race condition in the iptables mode of kube-proxy in 1.27 and later
  that could result in some updates getting lost (e.g., when a service gets a
  new endpoint, the rules for the new endpoint might not be added until
  much later). ([#122815](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122815), [@wedaly](https://github.com/wedaly)) [SIG Network]

* openstack cinder detach problem is fixed if nova is shutdowned ([#56846](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/56846), [@zetaab](https://github.com/zetaab))

 valuable credential. You can create a new Bootstrap Token with
 `kubeadm token create` or make the default token permanently valid by specifying
 `--token-ttl 0` to `kubeadm init`. The default token can later be deleted with
 `kubeadm token delete`.

 - `kubeadm join` now delegates TLS Bootstrapping to the kubelet itself, instead
 of reimplementing the process. `kubeadm join` writes the bootstrap kubeconfig

* Metadata of CustomResources is now pruned and schema-checked during deserialization of requests and when read from etcd. In the former case, invalid meta data is rejected, in the later it is dropped from the CustomResource objects. ([#64267](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64267), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))

- kubeadm now automatically sets the `--pod-infra-container-image` flag when starting the kubelet.

### SIG IBM Cloud

Users who create ephemeral containers using `kubectl debug` should note that kubectl version 1.22 will attempt to fall back to the old API; older versions of kubectl will not work with cluster versions of 1.22 or later. Please update kubectl to 1.22 if you wish to use `kubectl debug` with a mix of cluster versions.

## Known Issues

### CPU and Memory manager are not working correctly for Guaranteed Pods with multiple containers

- Add possibility to configure controller manager to use IPv6 dual stack:
  use `--cluster-cidr="<cidr1>,<cidr2>"`.
  Notes:
  1. Only the first two CIDRs are used (soft limits for Alpha, might be lifted later on).
  2. Only the "RangeAllocator" (default) is allowed as a value for `--cidr-allocator-type`. Cloud allocators are not compatible with IPv6 dual stack

 - Kubeadm: Move the "kubeadm init" phase "kubelet-start" later in the init workflow, after the "kubeconfig" phase. This makes kubeadm start the kubelet only after the KubeletConfiguration component config file (/var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml) is generated and solves a problem where init systems like OpenRC cannot...
