- Extend kube-apiserver /readyz with new "informer-sync" check ensuring that internal informers are synced. ([#92644](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/92644), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t)) [SIG API Machinery and Testing]

- kube-controller-manager now uses the informer cache instead of active pod gets in HPA controller ([#68241](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68241), [@krzysztof-jastrzebski](https://github.com/krzysztof-jastrzebski))

- Fixed a 1.28 regression around restarting init containers in the right order relative to normal containers ([#120440](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120440), [@gjkim42](https://github.com/gjkim42)) [SIG Node and Testing]

- 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/kub...

configurations must be changed to use the new API.  Clients may request alternate representations of normal Kubernetes objects by passing an `Accept` header like `application/json;as=Table;g=meta.k8s.io;v=v1beta1` or `application/json;as=PartialObjectMetadata;g=meta.k8s.io;v1=v1beta1`.  Older servers will ignore this representation or return an error if it is not available.  Clients may request fallback to the normal object by adding a non-qualified mime-type to their `Accept` header like `application/json`...

*   [beta] API chunking via the limit and continue request parameters is promoted to beta in this release. Client libraries using the Informer or ListWatch types will automatically opt in to chunking. ([#52949](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52949),[ @smarterclayton](https://github.com/smarterclayton))

* Fixes a flaw (CVE-2019-11253) in json/yaml decoding where large or malformed documents could consume excessive server resources. Request bodies for normal API requests (create/delete/update/patch operations of regular resources) are now limited to 3MB. ([#83261](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83261), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

    * nonexistent.  This patch adds an anonymous function call inside
    * the loop to correctly handle acquiring the write lock with deferred
    * unlock to run at that function's completion, following the normal
    * golang lock/deferred-unlock pattern.
* fix UnmountDevice failure on Windows ([#68608](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68608), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))

- In a scheduler with `Permit` plugins, when a Pod is rejected during `WaitOnPermit`, the scheduler records the plugin.
  The scheduler will use the record to honor cluster events and queueing `hints registered` for the plugin, to inform whether to retry the pod. ([#119785](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119785), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho))
