- Deprecated the `apiserver_request_slo_duration_seconds` metric for v1.27 in favor of `apiserver_request_sli_duration_seconds` for naming consistency purposes with other SLI-specific metrics and to avoid any confusion between SLOs and SLIs. ([#112679](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112679), [@dgrison...

* Add `metrics-port` to kube-proxy cmd flags. ([#72682](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72682), [@whypro](https://github.com/whypro))

  - apiserver_flowcontrol_dispatch_r: R(the time of the latest request dispatch)
  - apiserver_flowcontrol_latest_s: S(the request last dispatched) = R(when that request starts executing in the virtual world)
  - apiserver_flowcontrol_next_s_bounds: min and max next S among non-empty queues

### Other notable changes

* Add --request-timeout to kube-apiserver to make global request timeout configurable. ([#51415](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51415), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz))

* kube-apiserver: a request body of a CREATE/UPDATE/PATCH/DELETE resource operation larger than 100 MB will return a 413 "request entity too large" error. ([#73805](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73805), [@caesarxuchao](https://github.com/caesarxuchao))

`meta.k8s.io/v1beta1` and configurations must be changed to use the new API.  Clients may request alternate representations of normal Kubernetes objects by passing an `Accept` header like `application/json;as=Table;g=meta.k8s.io;v=v1beta1` or `application/json;as=PartialObjectMetadata;g=meta.k8s.io;v1=v1beta1`.  Older servers will ignore this representation or return an error if it is not available.  Clients may request fallback to the normal object by adding a non-qualified mime-type to their `Accept`...

- Kube-apiserver: fixes a 1.27+ regression in watch stability by serving watch requests without a resourceVersion from the watch cache by default, as in <1.27 (disabling the change in #115096 by default). This mitigates the impact of an etcd watch bug (https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/pull/17555). If the 1.27 change in #115096 to serve these requests from underlying storage is still desired despite the impact on watch stability, it can be re-enabled with a `Watc...
