- Fixed a bug in the exclusive assignment availability check for the `InPlacePodVerticalScalingExclusiveCPUs` feature gate. ([#130559](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130559), [@esotsal](https://github.com/esotsal))

  Server-side apply now considers `.spec.defaultBackend` to be an atomic struct.  This means that any field-owner who sets values in that struct (they are mutually exclusive) owns the whole struct.

- Alowed useful inclusion of `-args $prog_args` in KUBE_TEST_ARGS, when doing `make test-integration`. ([#107516](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/107516), [@MikeSpreitzer](https://github.com/MikeSpreitzer))

The Resource Management Working Group graduated three features to beta in the 1.10 release.  First, [CPU Manager](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/cpu-management-policies/), which allows users to request exclusive CPU cores.  This helps performance in a variety of use-cases, including network latency sensitive applications, as well as applications that benefit from CPU cache residency.  Next, [Huge Pages](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/manage-hugepages/...

- Kube-apiserver: fixes a 1.32+ regression validating OIDC and anonymous authentication flags are mutually exclusive to authentication configuration.
