* see https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/persistent-volumes/#class-1 for details.
* Reduce verbosity of volume reconciler when attaching volumes ([#36900](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/36900), [@codablock](https://github.com/codablock))

- Fixed FibreChannel volume plugin corrupting filesystems on detach of multipath volumes. ([#97013](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97013), [@jsafrane](https://github.com/jsafrane)) [SIG Storage]

- CSI Migration: Fixes issue where all volumes with the same inline volume inner spec name were staged in the same path. Migrated inline volumes are now staged at a unique path per unique volume. ([#84754](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84754), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))

### Generic Ephemeral Volumes

#### Metrics

*   [alpha] Raw block volumes
    *   Support for surfacing volumes as raw block devices added to Kubernetes storage system.
    *   Only Fibre Channel volume plugin supports exposes this functionality, in this release.
*   [alpha] Volume resizing
    *   Added file system resizing for the following volume plugins: GCE PD, Ceph RBD, AWS EBS, OpenStack Cinder

* [stable] You can now customize the iSCSI initiator name per volume in the iSCSI volume plugin.

* [stable] You can now specify the World Wide Identifier (WWID) for the volume identifier in the Fibre Channel volume plugin.

* [beta] Reclaim policy in StorageClass

  * You can now configure the reclaim policy in StorageClass, instead of defaulting to `delete` for dynamically provisioned volumes.

* [alpha] Volume resizing

/enhancements/issues/121), which enables PersistentVolumes to be created with locally attached disks, and not just network volumes.

On the Persistent Volumes side, this release [Prevents deletion of Persistent Volume Claims that are used by a pod](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/498) and [Persistent Volumes that are bound to a Persistent Volume Claim](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/499), making it impossible to delete storage that is in use by a pod....

You can find a list of sample and production drivers in the [CSI Documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/volumes/#csi).

SIG Storage also moves support for Block Volumes to beta (introduced as alpha in v1.9) and support for Topology Aware Volume Scheduling to stable (introduced as alpha in v1.9 and promoted to beta in 1.10).

### SIG UI

New alpha features include:
* Online volume resizing will increase the filesystem size of a resized volume without requiring a Pod restart.
* AWS EBS and GCE PD volumes support increased limits on the maximum number of attached volumes per node.
