- 'KubeSchedulerConfiguration' which used to be under GroupVersion 'componentconfig/v1alpha1',
is now under 'kubescheduler.config.k8s.io/v1alpha1'.  ([#66916](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66916), [@dixudx](https://github.com/dixudx)) Courtesy of SIG Cluster Lifecycle, SIG Scheduling, and SIG Testing

* Fixed validation of multizone cluster for GCE ([#38695](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/38695), [@jszczepkowski](https://github.com/jszczepkowski))
* Fix GCI mounter issue ([#38124](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/38124), [@jingxu97](https://github.com/jingxu97))

* Fixes a NPD bug on GCI, so that it disables glog writing to files for log-counter ([#76211](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76211), [@wangzhen127](https://github.com/wangzhen127))

* Audit logging with buffering enabled can increase apiserver memory usage (e.g. up to 200MB in 100-node cluster). The increase is bounded by the buffer size (configurable).

- `kubeadm init` and `kubeadm init phase` now have a `--image-repository` flag, improving support for environments with limited access to official kubernetes repository.
- The DynamicKubeletConfig and SelfHosting functionality was moved outside of `kubeadm init` and feature gates and is now exposed under `kubeadm alpha`.

- Fixed race condition in GCE between containerized mounter setup in the kubelet. ([#112195](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112195), [@mattcary](https://github.com/mattcary))

### Bug or Regression

- Fix scoring for NodeResourcesMostAllocated and NodeResourcesBalancedAllocation plugins when nodes have containers with no requests. This was leaving to under-utilization of small nodes.

* Add EgressRule to NetworkPolicy ([#51351](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51351), [@cmluciano](https://github.com/cmluciano))
* Allow DNS resolution of service name for COS using containerized mounter.  It fixed the issue with DNS resolution of NFS and Gluster services. ([#51645](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51645), [@jingxu97](https://github.com/jingxu97))
