* Make watch cache treat resourceVersion consistent with uncached watch ([#24008](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/24008), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

### Other notable changes

available. Users should transition from the v1beta1 API to the v1 API. ([#58393](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58393), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k))

* Fixes an issue where the resourceVersion of an object in a DELETE watch event was not the resourceVersion of the delete itself, but of the last update to the object. This could disrupt the ability of clients clients to re-establish watches properly. ([#58547](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58547), [...

* Add NoSchedule/NoExecute tolerations to ip-masq-agent, ensuring it to be scheduled in all nodes except master. ([#66260](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66260), [@tanshanshan](https://github.com/tanshanshan))
* Prevent `resourceVersion` updates for custom resources on no-op writes. ([#67562](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67562), [@nikhita](https://github.com/nikhita))

- Fix enabling consistent list from watch cache also works for resourceVersion=0 ([#123676](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123676), [@serathius](https://github.com/serathius)) [SIG API Machinery]

* Bump GCE metadata proxy to v0.1.9 to pick up security fixes. ([#58221](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58221), [@ihmccreery](https://github.com/ihmccreery))

- Fix bug where Server Side Apply causes spurious resourceVersion bumps on no-op patches to custom resources. ([#125263](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125263), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz)) [SIG API Machinery and Testing]

* Fixes an issue where the resourceVersion of an object in a DELETE watch event was not the resourceVersion of the delete itself, but of the last update to the object. This could disrupt the ability of clients clients to re-establish watches properly. ([#58547](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58547), [...

- Kube-apiserver: fixed a conflict error encountered attempting to delete a pod with gracePeriodSeconds=0 and a resourceVersion precondition ([#85516](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85516), [@michaelgugino](https://github.com/michaelgugino)) [SIG API Machinery]

- The `ResourceVersion` returned in objects from delete responses is now consistent with the `ResourceVersion` contained in the delete watch event. ([#113369](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113369), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

- Fixes a bug that when there is a "connection refused" error, the reflector's ListAndWatch func will return directly but what expected is that sleep 1 second and rewatch since the specified resourceVersion.
