### Feature

- Add process_start_time_seconds to /metrics/slis endpoint of all components ([#122750](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122750), [@richabanker](https://github.com/richabanker)) [SIG Architecture, Instrumentation and Testing]

    * Each deployment method should bind users/groups to the ClusterRoles if they are using this feature.
* Adds AllowPrivilegeEscalation to control whether a process can gain more privileges than its parent process ([#47019](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/47019), [@jessfraz](https://github.com/jessfraz))

### Feature

- Add process_start_time_seconds to /metrics/slis endpoint of all components ([#122750](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122750), [@richabanker](https://github.com/richabanker)) [SIG Architecture, Instrumentation and Testing]

- ` JobTrackingWithFinalizers` enabled by default. This feature allows to keep track of the Job progress without relying on Pods staying in the apiserver.

- `CSIMigrationAWS` upgraded to GA and locked to true.

- Updating kubelet permissions check for Windows nodes to see if process is elevated instead of checking if process owner is in Administrators group ([#108146](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108146), [@marosset](https://github.com/marosset))

them as rejected via `UnschedulableAndUnresolvable`. Consequently, these nodes are excluded from the candidates for the preemption process. Additionally, this update corrects how the scheduling framework handles the Unschedulable status from PreFilter. Previously, if PreFilter returned `Unschedulable`, it could lead to an unexpected abortion in the preemption process, which shouldn't occur in the default scheduler but might occur in schedulers with custom plugins.

- The `e2e.test` binary no longer emits JSON structs to document progress. ([#113212](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113212), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

- Added a redundant process to remove tracking finalizers from Pods that belong to Jobs. The process kicks in after the control plane marks a Job as finished. ([#119944](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119944), [@Sharpz7](https://github.com/Sharpz7))
