* Add conntrack as a dependency of kubelet and kubeadm when building rpms and debs. Both require conntrack to handle cleanup of connections. ([#71540](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71540), [@mauilion](https://github.com/mauilion))
* UDP connections now support graceful termination in IPVS mode ([#71515](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71515), [@lbernail](https://github.com/lbernail))

- Don't use a custom dialer for the kubelet if is not rotating certificates, so we can reuse TCP connections and have only one between the apiserver and the kubelet.

## Changelog since v1.12.7

### Other notable changes

* Connections from Pods to Services with 0 endpoints will now ICMP reject immediately, rather than blackhole and timeout. ([#72534](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72534), [@thockin](https://github.com/thockin))

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

- Kube-apiserver: sets an upper-bound on the lifetime of idle keep-alive connections and time to read the headers of incoming requests ([#103958](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103958), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG API Machinery and Node]

### Added

- New metrics: `apiserver_kube_aggregator_x509_missing_san_total` and `apiserver_webhooks_x509_missing_san_total`. This metric measures a number of connections to webhooks/aggregated API servers that use certificates without Subject Alternative Names. It being non-zero is a warning sign that these connections will stop functioning in the future since Golang is going to deprecate x509 certificate subject Common Names for server hostname verification.

 * <p>"IPv4 mapped" addresses were originally a representation of IPv4 addresses for use on an IPv6
 * socket that could receive both IPv4 and IPv6 connections (by disabling the {@code IPV6_V6ONLY}
 * socket option on an IPv6 socket). Yes, it's confusing. Nevertheless, these "mapped" addresses
 * were never supposed to be seen on the wire. That assumption was dropped, some say mistakenly, in

 * international domain names work everywhere. For example, "σ" encodes as "xn--4xa". The encoded
 * string is not human readable, but can be used with classes like [InetAddress] to establish
 * connections.

 * ## Why another URL model?
 *
 * Java includes both [java.net.URL][URL] and [java.net.URI][URI]. We offer a new URL
 * model to address problems that the others don't.
