  It is possible that this will cause problems with some third-party components
  that improperly depended on those rules. If this affects you, you can run
  `kubelet` with `--feature-gates=IPTablesOwnershipCleanup=false`, but a bug should also be filed against the third-party component. ([#114472](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114472), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship))

* calico-node addon tolerates all NoExecute and NoSchedule taints by default. ([#57122](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57122), [@caseydavenport](https://github.com/caseydavenport))

restarts. If the extended resource is exported by a device plugin, its capacity will change to a valid value after the device plugin re-connects with the Kubelet. If the extended resource is exported by an external component through direct node status capacity patching, the component should repatch the field after kubelet becomes ready again. During the time gap, pods previously assigned with such resources may fail kubelet admission but their controller should create new pods in response to such...

- Kubeadm internal config has been promoted to `v1alpha3`:
  - `v1alpha1` has been removed.
  - `v1alpha3` has split apart `MasterConfiguration` into separate components; `InitConfiguration`, `ClusterConfiguration`, `JoinConfiguration`, `KubeletConfiguration`, and `KubeProxyConfiguration`
  - Different configuration types can be supplied all in the same file separated by `---`.

flag --port=0 to kube-controller-manager and kube-scheduler manifests to disable insecure serving. Without this flag the components by default serve (e.g. /metrics) insecurely on the default node interface (controlled by --address). Users that wish to override this behavior and enable insecure serving can pass a custom --port=X via kubeadm's "extraArgs" mechanic for these components.
