* apiserver: fixes handling and logging of panics in REST handlers to prevent crashes ([#71076](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71076), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

### Bug or Regression

- Adds node event handlers to dual stack kube-proxy implementation to fix Topology Aware Hints. ([#101054](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101054), [@robscott](https://github.com/robscott)) [SIG Network]

- Fixed missing delete events on informer re-lists to ensure all delete events were correctly emitted and using the latest known object state, so that all event handlers and stores always reflect the actual apiserver state as best as possible ([#115620](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115620), [@odinuge](https://github.com/odinuge))

* Cluster Autoscaler 1.0.0 ([#53005](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53005), [@mwielgus](https://github.com/mwielgus))
* Remove the --docker-exec-handler flag. Only native exec handler is supported. ([#52287](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52287), [@yujuhong](https://github.com/yujuhong))

* Fix a scheduler panic due to internal cache inconsistency ([#71063](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71063), [@Huang-Wei](https://github.com/Huang-Wei))

- Replaced `apiserver_storage_db_total_size_in_bytes` with `apiserver_storage_size_bytes` metric. ([#118812](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118812), [@serathius](https://github.com/serathius))
- Scheduler now waits for handlers to finish syncing before the scheduling cycles start. ([#116729](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/116729), [@AxeZhan](https://github.com/AxeZhan))

- Fixed an issue with stuck connections handling error responses ([#71412](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71412), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- The 404 request handler for the GCE Ingress load balancer now exports prometheus metrics, including:

  - `http_404_request_total` (the number of 404 requests handled)
  - `http_404_request_duration_ms` (the amount of time the server took to respond in ms)

* Fixes in HPA: consider only running pods; proper denominator in avg request calculations. ([#33735](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/33735), [@jszczepkowski](https://github.com/jszczepkowski))
