The Resource Management Working Group graduated three features to beta in the 1.10 release.  First, [CPU Manager](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/cpu-management-policies/), which allows users to request exclusive CPU cores.  This helps performance in a variety of use-cases, including network latency sensitive applications, as well as applications that benefit from CPU cache residency.  Next, [Huge Pages](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/manage-hugepages/scheduling-hugepages/),...

- In the kubelet resource metrics endpoint at /metrics/resource, change the names of the following metrics:
  - node_cpu_usage_seconds --> node_cpu_usage_seconds_total
  - container_cpu_usage_seconds --> container_cpu_usage_seconds_total

- The CPU Manager will now validate the state of the node,  enabling Kubernetes to maintain the CPU topology even if resources change. ([#66718](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66718), [@ipuustin](https://github.com/ipuustin))

- Fixed relative CPU priority for pods where containers explicitly request zero cpu by giving the lowest priority instead of falling back to the cpu limit to avoid possible cpu starvation of other pods. ([#108832](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108832), [@waynepeking348](https://github.com/waynepeking348))

- A new kubelet command line option, `--reserved-cpus`, is introduced to explicitly define the CPU list that will be reserved for system. For example, if `--reserved-cpus=0,1,2,3` is specified, then cpu 0,1,2,3 will be reserved for the system.  On a system with 24 CPUs, the user may specify `isolcpus=4-23` for the kernel option and use CPU 4-23 for the user containers. ([#83592](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83592), [@jianzzha](https://github.com/jianzzha))...

- Graduated the following kubelet resource metrics to **general availability**:
  - `container_cpu_usage_seconds_total`
  - `container_memory_working_set_bytes`
  - `container_start_time_seconds`
  - `node_cpu_usage_seconds_total`
  - `node_memory_working_set_bytes`
  - `pod_cpu_usage_seconds_total`
  - `pod_memory_working_set_bytes`
  - `resource_scrape_error`
  

- Fixed a bug in kubelet that will saturate CPU utilization after containerd got restarted. ([#97174](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97174), [@hanlins](https://github.com/hanlins)) [SIG Node]

* Fixed a bug in the single-numa-node policy of the TopologyManager.  Previously, pods that only requested CPU resources and did not request any third-party devices would fail to launch with a TopologyAffinity error. Now they will launch successfully. ([#83697](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83697), [@klueska](https://github.com/klueska))
