- Priority and Fairness feature is now `stable`, the feature gate will be removed in `v1.31`. ([#121638](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121638), [@tkashem](https://github.com/tkashem))

- Updated `kube-proxy` with `nftables` to reject or drop traffic to services with no endpoints from filter chains at priority 0 (`NF_IP_PRI_FILTER`). ([#132456](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132456), [@aroradaman](https://github.com/aroradaman))

- Node shutdown controller made a best effort to wait for CSI Drivers to complete the volume teardown process according to the pod priority groups. ([#125070](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125070), [@torredil](https://github.com/torredil)) [SIG Node, Storage and Testing]

- Made legacy watch calls (`ResourceVersion` = 0 or unset) that generate init-events weigh higher in `API Priority and Fairness (APF)` seat usage.
