### Feature

- Kubernetes is now built with Golang 1.16.9 (#105672, @cpanato) [SIG Cloud Provider, Instrumentation, Release and Testing]

### Failing Test

- Backport: e2e.test now uses the secure port to retrieve metrics data to ensure compatibility with 1.21 and 1.22 (for upgrade tests) (#104328, @pohly) [SIG API Machinery, Instrumentation, Storage and Testing]

### Bug or Regression

	// and hence expected to have same credentials.
	core, err := miniogo.NewCore(host, &miniogo.Options{
		Creds:     credentials.NewStaticV4(cred.AccessKey, cred.SecretKey, ""),
		Secure:    globalIsTLS,
		Transport: getRemoteInstanceTransport(),
	})
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}
	core.SetAppInfo("minio-federated", ReleaseTag)
	return core, nil
}

```
kubectl --namespace=federation get secret federation-apiserver-secret -o json | sed 's/federation-apiserver-secret/federation-apiserver-kubeconfig/g' | kubectl create -f -
# optionally, remove the old secret
kubectl delete secret --namespace=federation federation-apiserver-secret
```

### Immutable Secrets and ConfigMaps (beta)

Secret and ConfigMap volumes can be marked as immutable, which significantly reduces load on the API server if there are many Secret and ConfigMap volumes in the cluster.
See [ConfigMap](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/configmap/) and [Secret](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/) for more information.

### CSI Proxy for Windows

- Kube-apiserver: the insecure address flags `--address`, `--insecure-bind-address`, `--port` and `--insecure-port` (inert since 1.20) are removed ([#106859](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/106859), [@knight42](https://github.com/knight42))

## Kubefed

* Deprecate the `--secret-name` flag from `kubefed join`, instead generating the secret name arbitrarily. ([#42513](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/42513), [@perotinus](https://github.com/perotinus))

- The cloud config for Azure cloud provider can now be initialized from Kubernetes secret azure-cloud-provider in kube-system namespace
    - the secret is a serialized version of `azure.json` file with key cloud-config. And the secret name is azure-cloud-provider.
    - A new option cloudConfigType has been added to the cloud-config file. Supported values are: `file`, `secret` and `merge` (`merge` is the default value).
