## Changelog since v1.4.1

### Other notable changes

* Fix base image pinning during upgrades via cluster/gce/upgrade.sh ([#33147](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/33147), [@vishh](https://github.com/vishh))

   *
   * - method reference: Inside Google, CacheBuilder is used from the implementation of a custom
   *   ClassLoader that is sometimes used as a system classloader. That's a problem because
   *   method-reference linking tries to look up the system classloader, and it fails because there
   *   isn't one yet.
   *
   * - lambda: Outside Google, we got a report of a similar problem in
   *   https://github.com/google/guava/issues/6565

  // Queues

  /**
   * A custom queue for managing eviction order. Note that this is tightly integrated with {@code
   * ReferenceEntry}, upon which it relies to perform its linking.
   *
   * <p>Note that this entire implementation makes the assumption that all elements which are in the
   * map are also in this queue, and that all elements not in the queue are not in the map.

  - Clone `kubernetes/kubernetes` in `update-vendor.sh` shallowly, instead of fetching all revisions
  - Speed up binpacking by reducing the number of PreFilter calls (call once per pod instead of #pods*#nodes times)
  - Speed up finding unneeded nodes by 5x+ in very large clusters by reducing the number of PreFilter calls
  - Expose `--max-nodes-total` as a metric
  - Errors in `IncreaseSize` changed from type `apiError` to `cloudProviderError`

		// lower layers decide this. This fixes a regression that was introduced
		// in PR #14555 where !VersionPurgeStatus.Empty() is automatically
		// considered as Delete marker true to avoid listing such objects by
		// regular ListObjects() calls. However for delete replication this
		// ends up being a problem because "upon" a successful delete this

* Fixes issue where an apiserver on 1.9 and controller-manager on 1.10 can cause volume provisioning and binding to fail. ([#71286](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/71286), [@msau42](https://github.com/msau42))

  The new feature gate activates a framework for fine-grained filtering of events related to scheduler plugins.
  In this release, no default scheduling plugins make use of the hinting framework, so you should not expect any behavior changes. ([#119328](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119328), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho)) [SIG Scheduling]

* Change `kubeadm create token` to default to the group that almost everyone will want to use.  The group is system:bootstrappers:kubeadm:default-node-token and is the group that kubeadm sets up, via an RBAC binding, for auto-approval (system:certificates.k8s.io:certificatesigningrequests:nodeclient). ([#53512](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53512), [@jbeda](https://github.com/jbeda))

- `VolumeBindingArgs` now allow `BindTimeoutSeconds` to be set as zero, while the value zero indicates no waiting for the checking of volume binding operation. ([#99835](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99835), [@chendave](https://github.com/chendave)) [SIG Scheduling and Storage]
