- The DownwardAPIHugePages feature is beta.  Users may use the feature if all workers in their cluster are min 1.20 version.  The feature will be enabled by default in all installations in 1.22.

### Failing Test

- Kube-proxy iptables min-sync-period defaults to 1 sec. Previously, it was 0. ([#92836](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/92836), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG Network]

### Bug or Regression

- Fix a bug that when PodTopologySpread rejects Pods, they may be stuck in Pending state for 5 min in a worst case scenario.
  The same problem could happen with custom plugins which have Pod/Add or Pod/Update in EventsToRegister,

- Updated kube-apiserver's priority & fairness work estimator such that 'max seats' is MIN(0.15 x nominalCL, nominalCL / handSize)
  

  After the connection closed(received GOAWAY), the client's other in-flight requests won't be affected, and the client will reconnect. 
  The flag min value is 0 (off), max is .02 (1/50 requests); .001 (1/1000) is a recommended starting point.

    * 3. Maximum of two entries is allowed in `--service-cluster-ip-range` and they are validated to be dual stacked `i.e. --service-cluster-ip-range=<v4>,<v6> or --service-cluster-ip-range=<v6>,<v4>`
    * 4. Max 20 bit for range (min network bits `<v6>/108` or <v4>/12)
    * kube-controller-manager: convert service CIDR to list `--service-cluster-ip-range=<CIDR>,<CIDR>` and make sure `IPv6DualStack` feature flag is turned on. The flag is validated as above.
