### API Changes

- mem: Add experimental API `SetDefaultBufferPool` to change the default
buffer pool.
([#&#8203;8806](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8806))
- Special Thanks: [@&#8203;vanja-p](https://redirect.github.com/vanja-p)
- experimental/stats: Update `MetricsRecorder` to require embedding the
new `UnimplementedMetricsRecorder` (a no-op struct) in all
implementations for forward compatibility.
([#&#8203;8780](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8780))

### Behavior Changes

- balancer/weightedtarget: Remove handling of `Addresses` and only
handle `Endpoints` in resolver updates.
([#&#8203;8841](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8841))

### New Features

- experimental/stats: Add support for asynchronous gauge metrics through
the new `AsyncMetricReporter` and `RegisterAsyncReporter` APIs.
([#&#8203;8780](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8780))
- pickfirst: Add support for weighted random shuffling of endpoints, as
described in [gRFC
A113](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/proposal/pull/535).
- This is enabled by default, and can be turned off using the
environment variable `GRPC_EXPERIMENTAL_PF_WEIGHTED_SHUFFLING`.
([#&#8203;8864](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8864))
- xds: Implement `:authority` rewriting, as specified in [gRFC
A81](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/proposal/blob/master/A81-xds-authority-rewriting.md).
([#&#8203;8779](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8779))
- balancer/randomsubsetting: Implement the `random_subsetting` LB
policy, as specified in [gRFC
A68](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/proposal/blob/master/A68-random-subsetting.md).
([#&#8203;8650](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8650))
- Special Thanks:
[@&#8203;marek-szews](https://redirect.github.com/marek-szews)
- server: Include status detail headers, if available, when terminating
a stream during request header processing.
([#&#8203;8754](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8754))
- Special Thanks:
[@&#8203;joybestourous](https://redirect.github.com/joybestourous)

### Bug Fixes

- credentials/tls: Fix a bug where the port was not stripped from the
authority override before validation.
([#&#8203;8726](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8726))
- Special Thanks:
[@&#8203;Atul1710](https://redirect.github.com/Atul1710)
- xds/priority: Fix a bug causing delayed failover to lower-priority
clusters when a higher-priority cluster is stuck in `CONNECTING` state.
([#&#8203;8813](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8813))
- health: Fix a bug where health checks failed for clients using legacy
compression options (`WithDecompressor` or `RPCDecompressor`).
([#&#8203;8765](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8765))
- Special Thanks: [@&#8203;sanki92](https://redirect.github.com/sanki92)
- transport: Fix an issue where the HTTP/2 server could skip header size
checks when terminating a stream early.
([#&#8203;8769](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8769))
- Special Thanks:
[@&#8203;joybestourous](https://redirect.github.com/joybestourous)

### Performance Improvements

- credentials/alts: Optimize read buffer alignment to reduce copies.
([#&#8203;8791](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8791))
- mem: Optimize pooling and creation of `buffer` objects.
([#&#8203;8784](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8784))
- transport: Reduce slice re-allocations by reserving slice capacity.
([#&#8203;8797](https://redirect.github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/8797))
