* Avoid spurious ELB listener recreation - ignore case when matching protocol ([#47391](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/47391), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))

- Promoted to conformance a test that verified that `Services` only forward traffic on the port and protocol specified. ([#120069](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120069), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

- GCE does not support LoadBalancer Services with ports with different protocols (TCP and UDP) ([#115966](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115966), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG Apps and Cloud Provider]

- Fixed azure disk translation issue due to lower case `managed` kind. ([#103439](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103439), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))
- Fixed client IP preservation for NodePort service with protocol SCTP in ipvs. ([#104756](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104756), [@tnqn](https://github.com/tnqn))

- `Scheduler` now registers event handlers dynamically. ([#101394](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101394), [@Huang-Wei](https://github.com/Huang-Wei))
- `kubectl`: Enable using protocol buffers to request Metrics API. ([#102039](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102039), [@serathius](https://github.com/serathius))

- This code change fixes the bug that UDP services would trigger unnecessary LoadBalancer updates. The root cause is that a field not working for non-TCP protocols is considered.

    * Introduce Alpha field `AllowWatchBookmarks` in ListOptions for requesting watch bookmarks from apiserver. The implementation in apiserver is hidden behind feature gate `WatchBookmark` (currently in Alpha stage).
* Override protocol between etcd server and kube-apiserver on master with HTTPS instead HTTP when mTLS is enabled in GCE ([#74690](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/74690), [@wenjiaswe](https://github.com/wenjiaswe))
