  - OS and Arch information is now recorded in `kubernetes.io/os` and `kubernetes.io/arch` labels on Node objects. The previous labels (`beta.kubernetes.io/os` and `beta.kubernetes.io/arch`) are still recorded, but are deprecated and targeted for removal in v1.18.

  with `scheme: HTTPS` that encounter errors indicating the endpoint is actually
  using HTTP fall back to making the request over HTTP for compatibility with
  previous releases. When this happens, a `LifecycleHTTPFallback` event is recorded
  in the namespace of the pod and a `kubelet_lifecycle_handler_http_fallbacks_total`
  metric in the kubelet is incremented. Cluster administrators can opt out of the
  expanded lifecycle handler capabilities by setting

- Evictions due to pods breaching their ephemeral storage limits are now recorded by the `kubelet_evictions` metric and can be alerted on. ([#87906](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87906), [@smarterclayton](https://github.com/smarterclayton)) [SIG Node]

- UpdateContainerResources is no longer recorded as a `container_status` operation. It now uses the label `update_container`. ([#75278](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75278), [@Nessex](https://github.com/Nessex))

- Resolves non-deterministic behavior of the garbage collection controller when ownerReferences with incorrect data are encountered. Events with a reason of `OwnerRefInvalidNamespace` are recorded when namespace mismatches between child and owner objects are detected. The [kubectl-check-ownerreferences](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubectl-check-ownerreferences) tool can be run prior to upgrading to locate existing objects with invalid...
