* Action required: If you have a running federation control plane, you will have to ensure that for all federation resources, the corresponding namespace exists in federation control plane. ([#31139](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/31139), [@nikhiljindal](https://github.com/nikhiljindal))

are hence enabled by default. This will be fixed in a future release.
[#38593](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/38593)
* Federation control plane can be upgraded by updating the image
fields in the `Deployment` specs of the control plane components.
However, federation control plane upgrades were not tested in this
release [38537](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/38537)

## Notable Changes to Existing Behavior

* kubeadm: Remove hard-coded default version when fetching stable version from the web fails. Fixes [kubeadm 1.6.1 deploying 1.6.0 control plane](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubeadm/issues/224). ([#43999](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/43999), [@mikedanese](https://github.com/mikedanese))

- Kubeadm: only taint control plane nodes when the legacy "master" taint is present. This avoids a bug where "kubeadm upgrade" will re-taint a control plane node with the new "control plane" taint even if the user explicitly untainted the node. ([#109841](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/109841), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster...

- Restores priority of static control plane pods in the cluster/gce/manifests control-plane manifests ([#89970](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89970), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle and Node]

   * This tests a special case where removeAt has to trickle an element first down one level from a
   * min to a max level, then up one level above the index of the removed element. It also tests
   * that skipMe in the iterator plays nicely with forgetMeNot.

- kubeadm: consider --bind-address or --advertise-address and --secure-port for control plane components when the feature gate WaitForAllControlPlaneComponents is enabled. Use /livez for kube-apiserver and kube-scheduler, but continue using /healthz for kube-controller-manager until it supports /livez. ([#128474](https://github.com/kuberne...
