- Add a new Priority and Fairness rule that exempts all probes (`/readyz`, `/healthz`, `/livez`) to prevent restarting of healthy `kube-apiserver` instance by kubelet. ([#100678](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/100678), [@tkashem](https://github.com/tkashem))

components, but only worked when those components were local to the API server, and when kube-scheduler and kube-controller-manager exposed unsecured health endpoints. Instead of this API, etcd health is included in the kube-apiserver health check and kube-scheduler/kube-controller-manager health checks can be made directly against those components' health endpoints.

- A new API server flag `--encryption-provider-config-automatic-reload` was added to control when the encryption config should be automatically reloaded without needing to restart the server.  All KMS plugins are now merged into a single healthz check at `/healthz/kms-providers` when reload is enabled, or when only KMS v2 plugins are used.

- We have added a new Priority & Fairness rule that exempts all probes (/readyz, /healthz, /livez) to prevent 
  restarting of "healthy" kube-apiserver instance(s) by kubelet. ([#101111](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101111), [@tkashem](https://github.com/tkashem)) [SIG API Machinery]

### Feature

During server startup, prior to the server reporting healthy (via `/healthz`), not all API groups may be reported.
Wait for the server to report healthy (via `/healthz`) before depending on the information provided by the discovery APIs.

- Added configurable per-device health check timeouts to the DRA health monitoring API. ([#135147](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/135147), [@harche](https://github.com/harche)) [SIG Node]

*   You can now override the health check parameters for AWS ELBs by specifying annotations on the corresponding service. The new annotations are: `healthy-threshold`, `unhealthy-threshold`, `timeout`, `interval`. The prefix for all annotations is  `service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-healthcheck-`.
