- Fixed incorrect calculation for ResourceQuota with PriorityClass as its scope. ([#117677](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117677), [@Huang-Wei](https://github.com/Huang-Wei)) [SIG API Machinery]

## Release Notes From SIGs

### SIG API Machinery

- The OwnerReferencesPermissionEnforcement admission plugin now checks authorization for the correct scope (namespaced or cluster-scoped) of the owner resource type. Previously, it always checked permissions at the same scope as the child resource. ([#70389](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70389), [@caesarxuchao](https://github.com/caesarxuchao))

- Ginkgo: when e2e tests are invoked through ginkgo-e2e.sh, the default now is to use color escape sequences only when connected to a terminal. `GINKGO_NO_COLOR=y/n` can be used to override that default. ([#111633](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111633), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

- Fixed the issue where logging output of kube-scheduler configuration files included line breaks and escape characters. The output also attempted to output the configuration file in one section without showing the user a more readable format. ([#106228](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/106228), [@sanchayanghosh](https://github.com/sanchayanghosh))...

- In text format, log messages that previously used quoting to prevent multi-line output (for example, text="some \"quotation\", a\nline break") will now be printed with more readable multi-line output without the escape sequences. ([#107103](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/107103), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

- New flag is introduced, i.e. --topology-manager-scope=container|pod. 
  The default value is the "container" scope. ([#92967](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/92967), [@cezaryzukowski](https://github.com/cezaryzukowski)) [SIG Instrumentation, Node and Testing]

 - Fixes a bug defining a default value for a replicas field in a custom resource definition that has the scale subresource enabled ([#90022](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90022), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG API Machinery, CLI, Cloud Provider and Cluster Lifecycle]

- If we set SelectPolicy MinPolicySelect on scaleUp behavior or scaleDown behavior,Horizontal Pod Autoscaler doesn't automatically scale the number of pods correctly ([#95647](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95647), [@JoshuaAndrew](https://github.com/JoshuaAndrew)) [SIG Apps and Autoscaling]

### Bug or Regression

  - [beta] In order to preserve safety guarantees the cluster no longer force deletes pods on un-responsive nodes and users are now warned if they try to force delete pods via the CLI.
