- kubelet: Users can now enable the alpha NodeLease feature gate to have the Kubelet create and periodically renew a Lease in the kube-node-lease namespace. The lease duration defaults to 40s, and can be configured via the kubelet.config.k8s.io/v1beta1.KubeletConfiguration's NodeLeaseDurationSeconds field.

- The `CertificateSigningRequest.certificates.k8s.io` API supports an optional expirationSeconds field to allow the client to request a particular duration for the issued certificate.

  now includes the time duration of the unreserve operation. ([#113113](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113113), [@kerthcet](https://github.com/kerthcet))

- A new sleep action for the `PreStop` lifecycle hook was added, allowing containers to pause for a specified duration before termination. ([#119026](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119026), [@AxeZhan](https://github.com/AxeZhan))
