Changelog since v1.34.0-alpha.1

Changes by Kind

Deprecation

Apimachinery: deprecated MessageCountMap and CreateAggregateFromMessageCountMap (#132376, @tico88612) [SIG API Machinery]

API Change

Add a runtime.ApplyConfiguration interface that is implemented by all generated applyconfigs (#132194, @alvaroaleman) [SIG API Machinery and Instrumentation]
Added omitempty and opt tag to the API v1beta2 AdminAccess type in the DeviceRequestAllocationResult struct. (#132338, @PatrickLaabs) [SIG Auth]
Introduces OpenAPI format support for k8s-short-name and k8s-long-name. (#132504, @jpbetz) [SIG API Machinery, Architecture, Auth, CLI, Cloud Provider, Cluster Lifecycle, Instrumentation, Network, Node, Scheduling and Storage]
Promoted Job Pod Replacement Policy to general availability. The JobPodReplacementPolicy feature gate is now locked to true, and will be removed in a future release of Kubernetes. (#132173, @dejanzele) [SIG Apps and Testing]
This PR corrects that documentation, making it clear to users that podSelector is optional and describes its default behavior. (#131354, @tomoish) [SIG Network]

Feature

Added a delay to node updates after kubelet startup. A random offset, based on the configured nodeStatusReportFrequency, helps spread the traffic and load (due to node status updates) more evenly over time. The initial status update can be up to 50% earlier or 50% later than the regular schedule. (#130919, @mengqiy) [SIG Node]
Included namespace in the output of the kubectl delete for clearer identification of resources. (#126619, @totegamma) [SIG CLI]
Kube-apiserver: each unique set of etcd server overrides specified with --etcd-servers-overrides now surface health checks named etcd-override-<index> and etcd-override-readiness-<index>. These checks are still excluded by ?exclude=etcd and ?exclude=etcd-readiness directives. (#129438, @pacoxu) [SIG API Machinery and Testing]

Bug or Regression

Fix regression introduced in 1.33 - where some Paginated LIST calls are falling back to etcd instead of serving from cache. (#132244, @hakuna-matatah) [SIG API Machinery]
Fixed API response for StorageClassList queries and returns a graceful error message, if the provided ResourceVersion is too large. (#132374, @PatrickLaabs) [SIG API Machinery and Etcd]
Fixed an issue which allowed Custom Resources to be created with Server-Side Apply even when its CustomResourceDefinition was terminating. (#132467, @sdowell) [SIG API Machinery]
Removed the deprecated flag '--wait-interval' for the ip6tables-legacy-restore binary. (#132352, @PatrickLaabs) [SIG Network]

Other (Cleanup or Flake)

Conntrack reconciler now considers service's target port during cleanup of stale flow entries. (#130542, @aroradaman) [SIG Network]
Job controller uses controller UID index for pod lookups. (#132305, @xigang) [SIG Apps]
Removed the deprecated --register-schedulable command line argument from the kubelet. (#122384, @carlory) [SIG Cloud Provider, Node and Scalability]
Removes the kubernetes.io/initial-events-list-blueprint annotation from the synthetic "Bookmark" event for the watch stream requests. (#132326, @p0lyn0mial) [SIG API Machinery]
