- Fix network_programming_latency metric reporting for Endpoints/EndpointSlice deletions, where we don't have correct timestamp ([#95363](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95363), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t)) [SIG Network and Scalability]

  without risking breaking old clients, such as controllers.

- `kubectl delete` no longer scales down workload API objects before deletion.
  Users who depend on ordered termination for the Pods of their StatefulSets
  must use `kubectl scale` to scale down the StatefulSet before deletion.

- `kubectl run --env` no longer supports CSV parsing. To provide multiple environment

* Tolerate missing watch permission when deleting a resource ([#65370](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65370), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k))
* Prevents a `kubectl delete` hang when deleting controller managed lists ([#65367](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65367), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k))

### Feature

- Kubernetes is now built with Go 1.20.13 ([#122712](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122712), [@cpanato](https://github.com/cpanato)) [SIG Release and Testing]

### Bug or Regression

- Allow deletion of pods that use raw block volumes on node reboot ([#122211](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122211), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied)) [SIG Node and Storage]

* During namespace deletion some controllers create event and log spam because they do not recognize namespace deletion as a terminal state. ([#84123](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84123), [@smarterclayton](https://github.com/smarterclayton))

- Relaxed API validation to allow pod node selector to be mutable for gated pods (additions only, no deletions or mutations). ([#116161](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/116161), [@danielvegamyhre](https://github.com/danielvegamyhre))

- 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))

*   Problems deleting local static pods have been resolved. ([#48339](https://github.com/kubern...

* Extend TLS timeouts to work around slow arm64 math/big ([#66264](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66264), [@joejulian](https://github.com/joejulian))
* GCE: Fixes loadbalancer creation and deletion issues appearing in 1.10.5. ([#66400](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66400), [@nicksardo](https://github.com/nicksardo))

    * or grant self-deletion permission explicitly:
