work-in-progress for removing the in-tree provider. This work, being done in conjunction with SIG Cloud Provider, is focusing on moving internal APIs that the OpenStack (and other providers) depends upon to staging to guarantee API stability. This work also included abstracting the in-tree Cinder API and refactoring code to the external Cinder provider to remove additional Cinder volume provider code.

Additional work was also done to implement an OpenStack driver for the Cluster API effort lead...

### Bug or Regression

- Fix component status calling etcd health endpoint over http which exposed kubernetes to the risk of complete watch starvation and is inconsistent with other etcd probing done by kube-apiserver. ([#118683](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118683), [@serathius](https://github.com/serathius)) [SIG API Machinery]

#### Node

- The deprecated kubelet security controls `AllowPrivileged`, `HostNetworkSources`, `HostPIDSources`, and `HostIPCSources` have been removed. Enforcement of these restrictions should be done through admission control (such as `PodSecurityPolicy`) instead. ([#77820](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77820), [@dims](https://github.com/dims))

* Authors of aggregated API servers must not rely on authorization being done by the kube-apiserver, and must do delegated authorization in addition. ([#61349](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61349), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))

* [Breaking change, client-go]: The WaitFor function returns, probably an ErrWaitTimeout, when the done channel is closed, even if the `WaitFunc` doesn't handle the done channel. ([#72364](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72364), [@kdada](https://github.com/kdada))

  
  The API does include a few breaking changes:
  - The "extraArgs" component construct is now a list of "name"/"value" pairs instead of a string/string map. This has been done to support duplicate args where needed.
  - The "JoinConfiguration.discovery.timeout" field has been replaced by "JoinConfiguration.timeouts.discovery".

- ValidatingAdmissionPolicy type checking now correctly handles `authorizer` variable. ([#118540](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118540), [@jiahuif](https://github.com/jiahuif)) [SIG API Machinery]
- When a pod is done or not going to run, then `ResourceClaims` for it can be reused by other pods or deleted. ([#118817](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118817), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

* Added xfsprogs to hyperkube container image. ([#56937](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/56937), [@redbaron](https://github.com/redbaron))

* Improved messages user gets during and after volume resizing is done, providing a clear message to the user explaining what to do when resizing is finished. ([#58415](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58415), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))

  * Now to edit a particular API version, provide the fully-qualify the resource, version, and group used to fetch the object (for example, `job.v1.batch/myjob`)
  * Client-side conversion is no longer done, and the `--output-version` option is deprecated for `kubectl edit`.
* `edit` works as intended with apply and will not change the annotation

- A kubelet parameter and config option has been added to change the CFS quota period from the default 100ms to some other value between 1µs and 1s. This was done to improve response latencies for workloads running in clusters with guaranteed and burstable QoS classes.
