## Urgent Upgrade Notes
### (No, really, you MUST read this before you upgrade)
#### Cluster Lifecycle
- Kubeadm: add a new `kubelet-finalize` phase as part of the `init` workflow and an experimental sub-phase to enable automatic kubelet client certificate rotation on primary control-plane nodes.

* iSCSI sessions managed by kubernetes will now explicitly set startup.mode to 'manual' to  prevent automatic login after node failure recovery. This is the default open-iscsi mode, so this change will only impact users who have changed their startup.mode to be 'automatic' in /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf. ([#57475](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57475), [@stmcginnis](https://github.com/stmcginnis))

  
  - `apiserver_encryption_config_controller_automatic_reload_failures_total`: Total number of failed automatic reloads of encryption configuration.
  - `apiserver_encryption_config_controller_automatic_reload_success_total`: Total number of successful automatic reloads of encryption configuration.

            final byte[] decryptionKey = Smb3KeyDerivation.deriveDecryptionKey(dialectInt, sessionKey, preauthHash);

            // Pass session key and preauthHash to enable automatic key rotation
            return new Smb2EncryptionContext(cipherId, dialect, encryptionKey, decryptionKey, sessionKey, preauthHash);
        } catch (final Exception e) {

    is 0 seconds. HTTP 408 (Client Timeout) responses are retried automatically
    if the header is absent or its delay is 0 seconds.
 *  New: Allow request bodies for all HTTP methods except GET and HEAD.
 *  New: Automatic module name of `okhttp3` for use with the Java Platform
    Module System.
 *  New: Log gzipped bodies when `HttpLoggingInterceptor` is used as a network
    interceptor.

- Kube-proxy: Added dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 support to the iptables proxier. ([#82462](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82462), [@vllry](https://github.com/vllry)) [SIG Network]
- Kubeadm now supports automatic calculations of dual-stack node cidr masks to kube-controller-manager. ([#85609](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85609), [@Arvinderpal](https://github.com/Arvinderpal)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

 * the query result cursor will both be closed, even if the operation is cancelled or fails.
 *
 * <p>Note that if you don't call {@code closeAsync()}, the captured objects will not be closed. The
 * automatic-closing approach described above is safer.

 * @param <V> the type of the value of this step

// TODO(dpb): Consider reusing one CloseableList for the entire pipeline, modulo combinations.

- KMS: added validation for duplicate kms config name when auto reload is enabled. If you enabled automatic reload of encryption configuration with API server flag `--encryption-provider-config-automatic-reload`, ensure all the KMS provider names (v1 and v2) in the encryption configuration are unique. ([#113697](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113697), [@aramase](https://github.com/aramase))...

- Extended resources requested by initContainers which are allocated using an automatic ResourceClaim now match the behavior of legacy device plugins, reusing the same resources requested by later sidecar initContainers or regular containers when possible, to minimize the total number of devices requested by the pod. ([#134882](htt...

* kubeadm: preflight checks on external etcd certificates are now skipped when joining a control-plane node with automatic copy of cluster certificates (--certificate-key) ([#75847](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75847), [@fabriziopandini](https://github.com/fabriziopandini))
