- The Daemonset controller creates replacements for terminal Pods, which can appear during VM preemptions or when using Pod finalizers ([#118912](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118912), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor)) [SIG Apps and Testing]

- The in-tree azure and gcp auth plugins have been deprecated.  The https://github.com/Azure/kubelogin and gcloud commands serve as out-of-tree replacements via the kubectl/client-go credential plugin mechanism.
