Kubernetes v1.37 is nearing its release with several planned changes. The --filename/-f flag for kubectl run will be deprecated. Static Pods can no longer directly reference Secrets or ConfigMaps due to a bug fix. Kube-proxy's support for IPVS mode is being deprecated and will be removed by v1.43. Support for cgroup v1 is being phased out, and users should migrate to cgroup v2. SELinux volume relabeling, known as SELinuxMount, is graduating to General Availability. The metrics.k8s.io API is also graduating to GA after being in Beta for nearly nine years. Kubelet in User Namespace, or Rootless Mode, is expected to graduate to Beta. A volume health monitor feature is being reintroduced to Alpha with new CSI RPCs. These changes aim to improve the maintenance and health of Kubernetes environments.
