- Newly provisioned PVs by gce-pd will no longer have the beta FailureDomain label. gce-pd volume plugin will start to have GA topology label instead. ([#98700](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98700),...

- `StatefulSet` names must be DNS labels, rather than subdomains. Any `StatefulSet`
  which took advantage of subdomain validation (by having dots in the name) can't
  possibly have worked, because we eventually set `pod.spec.hostname` from the `StatefulSetName`,

* The ScaleIO volume plugin can now read the SDC GUID value as node label scaleio.sdcGuid; if binary drv_cfg is not installed, the plugin will still work properly; if node label not found, it defaults to drv_cfg if installed.

Kubeadm: apply `second stage` of the plan to migrate kubeadm away from the usage of the word `master` in labels and taints. For new clusters, the label `node-role.kubernetes.io/master` will no longer be added to control plane nodes, only the label `node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane` will be added. For clusters that are being upgraded to 1.24 with `kubeadm upgrade apply`, the command will remove the label `node-role.kubernetes.io/master` from existing control plane nodes. For new clusters, both the old...

- Kubelet should reconcile `kubernetes.io/os` and `kubernetes.io/arch` labels on the node object. The side-effect of this is kubelet would deny admission to pod which has nodeSelector with label `kubernetes.io/os` or `kubernetes.io/arch` which doesn't match the underlying OS or arch on the host OS. 

- Kubelet: added validation for labels provided with --node-labels. Malformed labels will result in errors. ([#109263](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/109263), [@FeLvi-zzz](https://github.com/FeLvi-zzz))

- Added the `access_mode` label to `volume_manager_selinux_*` metrics. ([#123667](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123667), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane))
- Enhanced cloud provider integrations to support optional, per-Node custom labels that can be supplied and applied to Nodes by the node controller. These extra labels will only be applied where the cloud provider integration supports this feature.
