* To reduce memory usage to reasonable levels in smaller clusters, kube-apiserver now sets the deserialization cache size based on the target memory usage. ([#34000](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/34000), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

    * The pod annotation  `security.alpha.kubernetes.io/unsafe-sysctls` allows customization of namespaced sysctls where isolation is unclear. Unsafe sysctls must be enabled at-your-own-risk on the kubelet with the `--experimental-allowed-unsafe-sysctls` flag. Future versions will improve on resource isolation and more sysctls will be considered safe.

- Users can now traverse all the pods that are in the scheduler and waiting in the permit stage through method `IterateOverWaitingPods`. In other words,  all waitingPods in scheduler can be obtained from any profiles. Before this commit, each profile could only obtain `waitingPods` within that profile ([#122946](https://github.com/kubernetes...
