- Kubeadm: fix a bug where post upgrade to 1.18.x, nodes cannot join the cluster due to missing RBAC ([#89537](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89537), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

* Configurable etcd compaction frequency in GCE ([#59106](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59106), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))
* [GCE] Apiserver uses `InternalIP` as the most preferred kubelet address type by default. ([#59019](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59019), [@MrHohn](https://github.com/MrHohn))

* change azure disk host cache to ReadOnly by default ([#72229](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72229), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))

### API Change

- Fixed a bug where CEL expressions in CRD validation rules would incorrectly compute a high estimated cost for functions that return strings, lists or maps.

- Fix handling of aws-load-balancer-security-groups annotation. Security-Groups assigned with this annotation are no longer modified by kubernetes which is the expected behaviour of most users. Also no unnecessary Security-Groups are created anymore if this annotation is used. ([#88689](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88689), [@Elias481](https://github.com/Elias481)) [SIG Cloud Provider]

*   Fixed bad conversion in host port chain name generating func which led to some unreachable host ports. ([#55153](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55153),[ @chenchun](https://github.com/chenchun))

power to both local storage and Persistent Volumes. [Mount namespace propagation](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/432) allows a container to mount a volume as rslave so that host mounts can be seen inside the container, or as rshared so that mounts made inside a container can be seen by the host. (Note that this is [not supported on Windows](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60275).)

- The `controller.kubernetes.io/pod-deletion-cost` annotation can be set to offer a hint on the cost of deleting a `Pod` compared to other pods belonging to the same ReplicaSet. Pods with lower deletion cost are deleted first. This is an alpha feature. ([#99163](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99163), [@ahg-g](https://github.com/ahg-g))

* Fix device mountable volume names in DSW to prevent races in device mountable plugin, e.g. local. ([#71509](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71509), [@cofyc](https://github.com/cofyc))
