- Kube-scheduler implemented scheduling hints for the `NodeResourceFit` plugin. The scheduling hints allowed the scheduler to only retry scheduling a Pod that had been previously rejected by the `NodeResourceFit` plugin if a new Node or a...

* 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...

* Bugfix: OpenAPI models may not get group-version-kind extension if kubernetes is vendored in another project (e.g. minikube). Kubectl 1.8 needs this extension to work with those projects. ([#53152](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53152), [@mbohlool](https://github.com/mbohlool))

- The scheduling queue didn't notice any extenders' failures, it could miss some cluster events,
  and it could end up Pods rejected by Extenders stuck in unschedulable pod pool in 5min in the worst-case scenario.
  Now, the scheduling queue notices extenders' failures and requeue Pods rejected by Extenders appropriately. ([#122044](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122044), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho)) [SIG Scheduling]

* client-go: shortens refresh period for token files to 1 minute to ensure auto-rotated projected service account tokens are read frequently enough. ([#72437](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72437), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* Fix a regression that prevented using `subPath` volume mounts with secret, configMap, projected, and downwardAPI volumes ([#61080](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61080), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

# v1.9.4

- Number of errors reported to the metric `storage_operation_duration_seconds_count` for emptyDir decreased significantly because previously one error was reported for each projected volume created.
