* Fix regression in `v1.JobSpec.backoffLimit` that caused failed Jobs to be restarted indefinitely. ([#63650](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/63650), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))

- Kubelet terminates pods correctly upon restart, fixing an issue where pods may have not been fully terminated if the kubelet was restarted during pod termination. ([#117019](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117019), [@bobbypage](https://github.com/bobbypage)) [SIG Node and Testing]

- Scheduler bugfix: Scheduler doesn't lose pod information when nodes are quickly recreated. This could happen when nodes are restarted or quickly recreated reusing a nodename. ([#93964](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/93964), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor)) [SIG Scheduling and Testing]

- Fixes...

- Fixes a regression introduced in 1.29 where conntrack entries for UDP connections
  to deleted pods did not get cleaned up correctly, which could (among other things)
  cause DNS problems when DNS pods were restarted. ([#127806](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/127806), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship)) [SIG Network]

* Rerun init containers when the pod needs to be restarted ([#47599](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/47599), [@yujuhong](https://github.com/yujuhong))

* Ensure cloudprovider.InstanceNotFound is reported when the VM is not found on Azure ([#61531](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61531), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))
* On AWS kubelet returns an error when started under conditions that do not allow it to work (AWS has not yet tagged the instance). ([#60125](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60125), [@vainu-arto](https://github.com/vainu-arto))

temporary containers can be added to running pods for purposes such as debugging, similar to how `kubectl exec` runs a process in an existing container. Also like `kubectl exec`, no resources are reserved for ephemeral containers and they are not restarted when they exit. Note that container namespace targeting is not yet implemented, so [process namespace sharing](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/share-process-namespace/) must be enabled to view process from other containers...

- Pods that are considered for preemption and haven't started don't produce an error log. ([#87900](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87900), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor)) [SIG Scheduling]
