// dataSourceRef specifies the object from which to populate the volume with data, if a non-empty
  // volume is desired. This may be any object from a non-empty API group (non
  // core object) or a PersistentVolumeClaim object.
  // When this field is specified, volume binding will only succeed if the type of
  // the specified object matches some installed volume populator or dynamic
  // provisioner.

- Kube-apiserver: Avoid unnecessary repeated calls to `admission webhooks` that reject an update or delete request. ([#104182](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104182), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))...

### Other notable changes

* Connections from Pods to Services with 0 endpoints will now ICMP reject immediately, rather than blackhole and timeout. ([#72534](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72534), [@thockin](https://github.com/thockin))

- Kubeadm: on kubeconfig certificate renewal, keep the embedded CA in sync with the one on disk ([#88052](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88052), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]
- Kubeadm: reject a node joining the cluster if a node with the same name already exists ([#81056](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81056), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

* If the `TokenRequestProjection` feature gate is disabled, projected serviceAccountToken volume sources are now dropped at object creation time, or at object update time if the existing object did not have a projected serviceAccountToken volume source. Previously, these would result in validation errors. ([#72714](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72714), [@mourya007](https://github.com/mourya007))...

- The topology manager aligns resources for pods of all QoS classes with respect to NUMA locality, not just Guaranteed QoS pods. ([#83492](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83492), [@ConnorDoyle](https://github.com/ConnorDoyle))

* The apiserver sends external versioned object to the admission webhooks now. Please update the webhooks to expect admissionReview.spec.object.raw to be serialized external versions of objects.  ([#55127](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55127), [@caesarxuchao](https://github.com/caesarxuchao))

- Kube-apiserver: when merging lists, Server Side Apply now prefers the order of the submitted request instead of the existing persisted object. ([#107565](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/107565), [@jiahuif](https://github.com/jiahuif))

For more information, see [#53040](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/53040).

* Object quotas are not consistently charged or updated. Specifically, the object count quota does not reliably account for uninitialized objects. Some quotas are charged only when an object is initialized. Others are charged when an object is created, whether it is initialized or not. We plan to fix this issue in a future release.
