### VMware

- SAML token delegation (required for Zones support in vSphere) is now supported ([#78876](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78876), [@dougm](https://github.com/dougm))
- vSphere SAML token auth is now supported when using Zones ([#75515](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75515), [@dougm](https://github.com/dougm))

### Windows

* Support shared tag `kubernetes.io/cluster/<clusterid>` ([#41695](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/41695), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))
* Do not consider master instance zones for dynamic volume creation ([#41702](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/41702), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))

    * These `dependencies` are run before the normal parameter dependencies. And normal dependencies are run too. They can be combined.
    * Dependencies declared in a router are executed first, then the ones defined in *path operation decorators*, and then the ones declared in normal parameters. They are all combined and executed.

* vSphere: allow SAML token delegation (required for Zones support) ([#78876](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78876), [@dougm](https://github.com/dougm))

* Fix a bug in GCE multizonal clusters where PersistentVolumes were sometimes created in zones without nodes. ([#52322](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52322), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))

- Kube-apiserver --help flag help is now printed in sections. ([#64517](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64517), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))
- Azure managed disks now support availability zones and new parameters `zoned`, `zone` and `zones` are added for AzureDisk storage class. ([#66553](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66553), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer)) Courtesy of SIG Azure

  // In this situation, new pod with the same labelSelector cannot be scheduled,
  // because computed skew will be 3(3 - 0) if new Pod is scheduled to any of the three zones,
  // it will violate MaxSkew.
  //
  // This is a beta field and requires the MinDomainsInPodTopologySpread feature gate to be enabled (enabled by default).
  // +optional
  optional int32 minDomains = 5;

- Added the implementation for `PodRecreationPolicy` to wait for the creation of pods once the existing ones are fully terminated. ([#117015](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117015), [@kannon92](https://github.com/kannon92))

### Feature

- Extend AWS azToRegion method to support Local Zones ([#90874](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90874), [@Jeffwan](https://github.com/Jeffwan)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

### Bug or Regression

* Fix a bug in GCE multizonal clusters where PersistentVolumes were sometimes created in zones without nodes. ([#52322](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52322), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))
