* Flex drivers by default do not produce metrics. Flex plugins can enable metrics collection by setting  the capability 'supportsMetrics' to true. Make sure the file system can support fs stat to produce metrics in this case. ([#67508](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67508), [@brahmaroutu](https://github.com/brahmaroutu))

- A new kubelet metric `image_pull_duration_seconds` was added. The metric tracks the duration (in seconds) it takes for an image to be pulled, including the time spent in the waiting queue of image puller. The metric is broken down by bucketed image size.

### Pod resource metrics

On-demand metrics calculation is now available through `/metrics/resources`. [When enabled](
https://docs.k8s.io/concepts/cluster-administration/system-metrics#kube-scheduler-metrics), the endpoint will report the requested resources and the desired limits of all running pods.

### Introducing `RootCAConfigMap`

- Add one metrics(`kubelet_volume_stats_health_abnormal`) of volume health state to kubelet ([#105585](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105585), [@fengzixu](https://github.com/fengzixu))

- In the kubelet resource metrics endpoint at /metrics/resource, change the names of the following metrics:
  - node_cpu_usage_seconds --> node_cpu_usage_seconds_total

- 'Promoted `cronjob_job_creation_skew` metric to stable to follow the cronjob v2 controller,
  the following metrics had their name updated to match metrics API guidelines:
    - `cronjob_job_creation_skew_duration_seconds` -> `job_creation_skew_duration_seconds`.' ([#113008](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113008), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))

- Introduced new apiserver metric `apiserver_flowcontrol_current_inqueue_seats`. This metric is analogous to `apiserver_flowcontrol_current_inqueue_requests`, but tracks the total number of seats, as each request can take more than one seat. ([#119385](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119385), [@andrewsykim](https://github.com/andrewsykim))

  - Applications that fetch metrics from kube-scheduler should use a dedicated service account which is allowed to access nonResourceURLs `/metrics`. ([#96345](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96345), [@ingvagabund](https://github.com/ingvagabund)) [SIG Cloud Provider, Scheduling and Testing]

- Metric `running_managed_controllers` is enabled for Cloud Node Lifecycle controller. ([#111033](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111033), [@jprzychodzen](https://github.com/jprzychodzen))
