- Reverts graceful node shutdown to match 1.21 behavior of setting pods that have not yet successfully completed to "Failed" phase if the GracefulNodeShutdown feature is enabled in kubelet. The GracefulNodeShutdown feature is beta and must be explicitly configured via kubelet config to be enabled in 1.21+. This changes 1.22 and 1.23 behavior on node shutdown to match 1.21. If you do not want pods to be marked terminated on node shutdown in...

* The kube-apiserver has improved behavior for both startup and shutdown sequences and also now exposes `/readyz` for readiness checking. Readyz includes all existing healthz checks but also adds a shutdown check. When a cluster admin initiates a shutdown, the kube-apiserver will try to process existing requests (for the duration of request timeout) before killing the apiserver process.   ([#78458](https://...

## Changelog since v1.10.9

is now easier to integrate into custom networking environments by supporting
TLS for secure communication and L7 http-based traffic routing.
     * Graceful Node Shutdown (aka drain) - The new “kubectl drain” command gracefully
evicts pods from nodes in preparation for disruptive operations like kernel
upgrades or maintenance.

- Enabled graceful shutdown feature for Windows node ([#127404](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/127404), [@zylxjtu](https://github.com/zylxjtu)) [SIG Node, Testing and Windows]

#### **Audit**

*   Fixed a bug so that `kube-apiserver` now waits for open connections to finish before exiting. This fix provides graceful shutdown and ensures that the audit backend no longer drops events on shutdown. ([#53695](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53695),[ @hzxuzhonghu](https://github.com/hzxuzhonghu))

- Fix /readyz to return error immediately after a shutdown is initiated, before the --shutdown-delay-duration has elapsed. ([#88911](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/88911), [@tkashem](https://github.com/tkashem)) [SIG API Machinery]
