- kubeadm: fixed a misleading output (typo) about control-plane joining instructions when executing the "kubeadm init" command. ([#128118](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/128118), [@amaddio](https://github.com/amaddio))

- Kubeadm: don't write the kubelet environment file on "upgrade apply" ([#85412](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85412), [@boluisa](https://github.com/boluisa)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]
- Kubeadm: fix potential panic when executing "kubeadm reset" with a corrupted kubelet.conf file ([#86216](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/86216), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

* fluentd-gcp addon: Fixed bug with reporting metrics in event-exporter. ([#60126](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60126), [@serathius](https://github.com/serathius))

* Avoid hook errors when effecting label changes on kubernetes-worker charm. ([#59803](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59803), [@wwwtyro](https://github.com/wwwtyro))

- Sped up kubelet start time by executing an immediate runtime and node status update when the Kubelet sees that it has a CIDR. ([#67031](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67031), [@krzysztof-jastrzebski](https://github.com/krzysztof-jastrzebski))

*   [alpha] Topology Aware Volume Scheduling
    *   Improved volume scheduling for Local PersistentVolumes, by allowing the scheduler to make PersistentVolume binding decisions while respecting the Pod's scheduling requirements.
    *   Dynamic provisioning is not supported with this feature yet.
*   [alpha] Containerized mount utilities

- Kubelet.exe on Windows now checks that the process running as administrator and the executing user account is listed in the built-in administrators group.  This is the equivalent to checking the process is running as uid 0. ([#96616](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96616), [@perithompson](https://github.com/perithompson)) [SIG...

- Warns user when executing kubectl apply/diff to a resource currently being deleted. ([#95544](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95544), [@SaiHarshaK](https://github.com/SaiHarshaK)) [SIG CLI]

- Kubeadm: added `show-join-command` as a new separate phase at the end of `kubeadm init`. You can skip printing the join information by using `kubeadm init --skip-phases=show-join-command`. Executing only this phase on demand will throw an error because the phase needs dependencies such as bootstrap tokens to be pre-populated.
