Fixes an issue in winkernel proxier that causes proxy rules to leak anytime service backends are modified. (#112840, @daschott) [SIG Network and Windows]
For raw block CSI volumes on Kubernetes, kubelet was incorrectly calling CSI NodeStageVolume for every single "map" (i.e. raw block "mount") operation for a volume already attached to the node. This PR ensures it is only called once per volume per node. (#112403, @akankshakumari393) [SIG Storage]
Kube-scheduler: add taints filtering logic consistent with TaintToleration plugin for PodTopologySpread plugin (#112357, @SataQiu) [SIG Scheduling and Testing]
MySQL 8.0.31
The audit_log_rotate() function simplifies audit log file rotation. Previously, audit log file rotation required renaming the file manually and setting audit_log_flush = ON to close the file and open a new log file with the original name. The audit_log_rotate() function renames the current file and creates a new one. Manually renaming the audit log file is no longer necessary.
The audit_log_flush variable is deprecated as of MySQL 8.0.31; expect support for it to be removed in a future version of MySQL.
Renamed internal Performance Schema functions from _utf8* to _utf8mb4* as they've used utf8mb4 since v8.0.11. (Bug #34351301)
References: See also: Bug #27407745.
Fixed linker flags for clang/ubsan to workaround a LLVM/Clang related integer issue as described in LLVM bug #16404. (Bug #34311325)
Updated helper scripts to use 'utf8mb3' for charsets/collations instead of 'utf8' for future compatibility.

More options for compression, including support for Zstandard (zstd) compression. This includes support for performing compression on the server side during pg_basebackup.
Support for structured server log output using the JSON format.
