// Variable references $(VAR_NAME) are expanded using the container's environment. If a variable
  // cannot be resolved, the reference in the input string will be unchanged. Double $$ are reduced
  // to a single $, which allows for escaping the $(VAR_NAME) syntax: i.e. "$$(VAR_NAME)" will
  // produce the string literal "$(VAR_NAME)". Escaped references will never be expanded, regardless

### Bug or Regression

- In some cases, a Flex volume resize may leave a PVC with erroneous Resizing condition even after volume has been successfully expanded. Users may choose to delete the condition, but it is not required. ([#71470](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/71470))

- Add a namespace label for all `apiserver_admission_* metrics`.
  Expand the histogram range to 0-10s for all `apiserver_admission_*_duration_seconds` metrics. ([#101208](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/101208), [@voutcn](https://github.com/voutcn))

   ([#122447](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/122447), [@ardaguclu](https://github.com/ardaguclu))
