* kube-proxy needs to be configured to override hostname in some environments. ([#857](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubeadm/issues/857), [@detiber](https://github.com/detiber))

* Bugfix: OpenAPI models may not get group-version-kind extension if kubernetes is vendored in another project (e.g. minikube). Kubectl 1.8 needs this extension to work with those projects. ([#53152](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53152), [@mbohlool](https://github.com/mbohlool))

    *    That means, now  VCP can handle cases where user changes VM inventory name.
    * - VCP can handle cases where VM migrates to other ESXi cluster or datacenter or vCenter.
    * The only requirement is the shared storage. VCP needs shared storage on all Node VMs.

 - [Action Required] CSI drivers that call IsLikelyNotMountPoint should not assume false means that the path is a mount point. Each CSI driver needs to make sure correct usage of return value of IsLikelyNotMountPoint because if the file is an irregular file but not a mount point is acceptable ([#129370](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/129370), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))...

- The Usage and VolumeCondition are both optional in the response and if CSIVolumeHealth feature gate is enabled kubelet needs to consider returning metrics if either one is set. ([#127021](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/127021), [@Madhu-1](https://github.com/Madhu-1)) [SIG Storage]

- kube-scheduler

  - Migrate scheduler to use v1beta1 Event API. any tool targeting scheduler events needs to use v1beta1 Event API ([#78447](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78447), [@yastij](https://github.com/yastij))

- kubeadm

  - The CoreDNS Deployment now checks readiness via the `ready` plugin.

- Track the number of Pods with a Ready condition in Job status. The feature is alpha and needs the feature gate JobReadyPods to be enabled. ([#104915](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104915), [@alculquicondor](https://github.com/alculquicondor))

- Kubeadm: added the "--cleanup-tmp-dir" flag for `kubeadm reset`. It will cleanup...

  Note that the default stored version remains alpha in 1.34 and whoever enabled beta during 1.34 needs to run a storage migration yourself to ensure you don't depend on alpha data in etcd.

- When using `kubectl replace` (or the equivalent API call) on a Service, the caller no longer needs to do a read-modify-write cycle to fetch the allocated values for `.spec.clusterIP` and `.spec.ports[].nodePort`.
