### Storage
- Bump CSI version to 1.2.0 ([#84832](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84832), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))
- CSI Migration: Fixes issue where all volumes with the same inline volume inner spec name were staged in the same path. Migrated inline volumes are now staged at a unique path per unique volume. ([#84754](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84754), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))

- Add improved load balancer naming.

### SIG-scheduling

SIG Scheduling development efforts have been primarily focused on improving performance and reliability of the scheduler.
- Performance of the inter-pod affinity/anti-affinity feature is improved over 100X via algorithmic optimization.

- Added new option to the `InterPodAffinity` scheduler plugin to ignore existing
  pods` preferred inter-pod affinities if the incoming pod has no preferred inter-pod
  affinities. This option can be used as an optimization for higher scheduling throughput
  (at the cost of an occasional pod being scheduled non-optimally/violating existing
  pods preferred inter-pod affinities). To enable this scheduler option, set the

* Bugfix for erroneous upgrade needed messaging in kubernetes worker charm. ([#60873](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60873), [@wwwtyro](https://github.com/wwwtyro))
* Fix inter-pod anti-affinity check to consider a pod a match when all the anti-affinity terms match. ([#62715](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/62715), [@bsalamat](https://github.com/bsalamat))

* fix cinder volume dir umount issue [#24717](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/24717) ([#24718](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/24718), [@chengyli](https://github.com/chengyli))
* Inter pod topological affinity and anti-affinity implementation ([#22985](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/22985), [@kevin-wangzefeng](https://github.com/kevin-wangzefeng))

  * [Nodes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/#node-affinity-beta-feature) and [pods](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/#inter-pod-affinity-and-anti-affinity-beta-feature) now support affinity and anti-affinity

- The `Service.spec.ipFamilyPolicy` field is now *required* in order to create or update a Service as dual-stack.  This is a breaking change from the beta behavior.  Previously the server would try to infer the value of that field from either `ipFamilies` or `clusterIPs`, but that caused ambiguity on updates.  Users who want a dual-stack Service MUST specify `ipFamilyPolicy` as either "PreferDualStack" or "RequireDualStack". ([#96684](https://github....

- Pods that are known to the kubelet to have previously been Running should not revert to Pending state, the kubelet will now infer a termination. ([#102821](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102821), [@ehashman](https://github.com/ehashman))
