## Changelog since v1.22.14

## Changes by Kind

### Bug or Regression

  * Completed pods should not be hidden when requested by name via `kubectl get`. ([#42216](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/42216), [@smarterclayton](https://github.com/smarterclayton))
  * Improve formatting of EventSource in kubectl get and kubectl describe ([#40073](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/40073), [@matthyx](https://github.com/matthyx))

- A new feature was enabled to improve the performance of the iptables mode of `kube-proxy` in large clusters. No action was required, however:
  

        return true;
      }
    }
    throw new AssertionError();
  }

  /*
   * If n <= millerRabinBases[i][0], then testing n against bases millerRabinBases[i][1..] suffices
   * to prove its primality. Values from miller-rabin.appspot.com.
   *
   * NOTE: We could get slightly better bases that would be treated as unsigned, but benchmarks
   * showed negligible performance improvements.
   */

- Improve handling of unmount failures when device may be in-use by another container/process ([#107789](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/107789), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied)) [SIG Storage]
