enabled, when finding a suitable persistent volume for a claim, the kube-controller-manager will be aware of the `volumeAttributesClassName` field of PVC and PV objects. The `volumeAttributesClassName` field is a reference to a VolumeAttributesClass object, which contains a set of key-value pairs that present mutable attributes of the volume. It's forbidden to change the `volumeAttributesClassName` field of a PVC object until the PVC is bound to a PV object. During the binding process, if a PVC has a `v...

[https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/49213](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/49213) sig-cluster-lifecycle has decided to phase out the cluster/ directory over the next couple of releases in favor of deployment automations maintained outside of the core repo and outside of kubernetes orgs. ([@kubernetes/sig-cluster-lifecycle-misc](https://github.com/orgs/kubernetes/teams/sig-cluster-lifecycle-misc))

    * Remove deprecated ContainerVM support from GCE kube-up....

In addition, users can now create multiple versions of CustomResourceDefinitions, but without any kind of automatic conversion, and CustomResourceDefinitions now allow specification of additional columns for `kubectl get` output via the `spec.additionalPrinterColumns` field.

* The DenyEscalatingExec and DenyExecOnPrivileged admission plugins are deprecated and will be removed in v1.18. Use of `PodSecurityPolicy` or a custom admission plugin to limit creation of pods is recommended instead.

* Fixes an issue where the resourceVersion of an object in a DELETE watch event was not the resourceVersion of the delete itself, but of the last update to the object. This could disrupt the ability of clients clients to re-establish watches properly. ([#58547](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58547), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

  - Clone `kubernetes/kubernetes` in `update-vendor.sh` shallowly, instead of fetching all revisions
  - Speed up binpacking by reducing the number of PreFilter calls (call once per pod instead of #pods*#nodes times)
  - Speed up finding unneeded nodes by 5x+ in very large clusters by reducing the number of PreFilter calls
  - Expose `--max-nodes-total` as a metric
