users can delete their corresponding node object by patching themselves with an OwnerReference to a cluster-scoped resource. If the OwnerReference resource does not exist or is subsequently deleted, the given node object will be deleted via garbage collection. By default, node users are authorized for create and patch requests but not delete requests against their node object. Since the NodeRestriction admission controller does not prevent patching OwnerReferences, a compromised node could leverage...

- Removed Alpha feature `MountContainers` ([#84365](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84365), [@codenrhoden](https://github.com/codenrhoden))

* Update to go1.10.8 ([#73329](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73329), [@ixdy](https://github.com/ixdy))
* Allow for watching objects larger than 1MB given etcd accepts objects of size up to 1.5MB ([#72053](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72053), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

the extended resource is exported by a device plugin, its capacity will change to a valid value after the device plugin re-connects with the Kubelet. If the extended resource is exported by an external component through direct node status capacity patching, the component should repatch the field after kubelet becomes ready again. During the time gap, pods previously assigned with such resources may fail kubelet admission but their controller should create new pods in response to such failures. ([#...

### Bug or Regression

#### Cluster Selection
* [alpha] Federation [ClusterSelector annotation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-federation/cluster/#clusterselector-annotation) to direct objects to federated clusters with matching labels.

#### Core Metrics API

- Fix output of `kubectl get --watch-only` when watching a single resource ([#79345](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/79345), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

- Namespace API objects now have a `kubernetes.io/metadata.name` label matching their metadata.name field to allow selecting any namespace by its name using a label selector.

#### **Audit**

*   Adjust batching audit webhook default parameters: increase queue size, batch size, and initial backoff. Add throttling to the batching audit webhook. Default rate limit is 10 QPS. ([#53417](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53417),[ @crassirostris](https://github.com/crassirostris))
