- Removed `/livez` livezchecks for KMS v1 and v2 to ensure KMS health does not cause `kube-apiserver` restart. KMS health checks are still in place as a healthz and readiness checks. ([#120583](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120583), [@ritazh](https://github.com/ritazh))

- [Conformance tests](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108592) added support for Windows
- New repository created for [Windows Operational Readiness](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/windows-operational-readiness)

### Moved container registry service from k8s.gcr.io to registry.k8s.io

specified) is `1s` which may be too small for some exec probes. Ensure that pods relying on this behavior are updated to correctly handle probe timeouts. See [configure probe](https://docs.k8s.io/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#configure-probes) section of the documentation for more details.

  - This change in behavior may be unexpected for some clusters and can be disabled by turning off the `ExecProbeTimeout` feature gate. This gate will be...

## Changelog since v1.16.0

### Other notable changes

* Limit the body length of exec readiness/liveness probes. remote CRIs and Docker shim read a max of 16MB output of which the exec probe itself inspects 10kb. ([#82514](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82514), [@dims](https://github.com/dims))

			w.Run(func() error {

* Skip safe to detach check if node API object no longer exists ([#30737](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/30737), [@saad-ali](https://github.com/saad-ali))
* Nodecontroller doesn't flip readiness on pods if kubeletVersion < 1.2.0 ([#30828](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/30828), [@bprashanth](https://github.com/bprashanth))

- Kubeadm: switched the kube-scheduler static Pod to use the endpoints /livez (for startup and liveness probes) and /readyz (for the readiness probe). Previously /healthz was used for all probes, which is deprecated behavior in the scope of this component.
