* `kubeadm join` is now blocking on the kubelet performing the TLS Bootstrap properly. Earlier, `kubeadm join` only did the discovery part and exited successfully without checking that the kubelet actually started properly and performed the TLS bootstrap correctly. Now, as kubeadm runs some post-join steps (for example, annotating the Node API object with the CRISocket), `kubeadm join` is now waiting for the kubelet to perform the TLS Bootstrap, and then uses that credential to perform...

### Quality of Service for memory resources

is enabled kubeadm will start using a new naming format for the ConfigMap where it stores the KubeletConfiguration structure. The old format included the Kubernetes version - "kube-system/kubelet-config-1.22", while the new format does not - "kube-system/kubelet-config". A similar formatting change is done for the related RBAC rules. The old format is now DEPRECATED and will be removed after the feature graduates to GA. When writing the ConfigMap kubeadm (init, upgrade apply) will respect the value...

  kubeadm no longer sets the node-mask automatically on IPv6 deployments, you must check that your IPv6 service subnet mask is compatible with the default node mask /64 or set it accordingly.

- The etcd client library vendored in v1.16 (github.com/coreos/etcd/clientv3) has a bug where IPv6 IP addresses get incorrectly trimmed to the first occurance of the `:` character. This affects all users of the client library including the kube-apiserver and kubeadm. We are targeting the fix for this bug in v1.16.3. ([#83550](https://github.com/k...

to Services.
With the manual enablement of this feature, the cluster will prefer automatic assignment from
the pool of Service IP addresses thereby reducing the risk of collision.

A Service `ClusterIP` can be assigned:

* dynamically, which means the cluster will automatically pick a free IP within the configured Service IP range.
* statically, which means the user will set one IP within the configured Service IP range.

- Fixes an issue where the vsphere cloud provider will not trust a certificate if:
  - The issuer of the certificate is unknown (x509.UnknownAuthorityError)
  - The requested name does not match the set of authorized names (x509.HostnameError)

### Apps

The core workloads API, which is composed of the DaemonSet, Deployment, ReplicaSet, and StatefulSet kinds, has been promoted to GA stability in the apps/v1 group version. As such, the apps/v1beta2 group version is deprecated, and all new code should use the kinds in the apps/v1 group version.
