the value of the receive operation <code>&lt;-ch</code> is the value received
from the channel <code>ch</code>.
The channel direction must permit receive operations,
and the type of the receive operation is the element type of the channel.
The expression blocks until a value is available.
Receiving from a <code>nil</code> channel blocks forever.
A receive operation on a <a href="#Close">closed</a> channel can always proceed

- You can now have different operation names for different storage operations. This still prevents two operations on same volume from happening concurrently but if the operation changes, it resets the exponential backoff.

* Time for attach/detach retry operations has been decreased from 10-12s to 2-6s ([#56974](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/56974), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))

### Auth

* Contexts must be named in kubeconfigs. ([#56769](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/56769), [@dixudx](https://github.com/dixudx))

    * of DaemonSet Pod already exists, it will be replaced.
    * DaemonSet controller will only perform these operations when creating DaemonSet Pods;
    * and those operations will only modify the Pods of DaemonSet, no changes are made to the
    * `.spec.template` of DaemonSet.

    * maintenance, kube-proxy will take slightly longer to recover from disruptive
    * firewalld operations that delete kube-proxy's iptables rules.
* Added cloud operation count metrics to azure cloud controller manager. ([#82574](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82574), [@kkmsft](https://github.com/kkmsft))

* Changed core_pattern on COS nodes to be an absolute path. ([#86329](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/86329), [@mml](https://github.com/mml))
* Track mount operations as uncertain if operation fails with non-final error ([#82492](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82492), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))

- For volumes that allow attaches across multiple nodes, attach and detach operations across different nodes are now executed in parallel. ([#89240](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/89240), [@verult](https://github.com/verult)) [SIG Apps, Node and Storage]

protobuf you will be forced to restore from backup, and you will lose any changes
since you converted to protobuf.  After conversion to protobuf, you should
validate the correct operation of your cluster thoroughly before returning it
to normal operation.

Backups are always a good precaution, particularly around upgrades, but this
upgrade has multiple known issues where the only remedy is to restore from
backup.

* Fixes a flaw (CVE-2019-11253) in json/yaml decoding where large or malformed documents could consume excessive server resources. Request bodies for normal API requests (create/delete/update/patch operations of regular resources) are now limited to 3MB. ([#83261](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83261), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* The apiserver, including both the kube-apiserver and apiservers built with the generic apiserver library, will now return 413 RequestEntityTooLarge error if a json patch contains more than 10,000 operations.
