### Bug or Regression

- An issues preventing volume expand controller to annotate the PVC with `volume.kubernetes.io/storage-resizer` when the PVC StorageClass is already updated to the out-of-tree provisioner is now fixed. ([#94489](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94489), [@ialidzhikov](https://github.com/ialidzhikov)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps and Storage]

  // glusterfs represents a Glusterfs volume that is attached to a host and
  // exposed to the pod. Provisioned by an admin.
  // More info: https://examples.k8s.io/volumes/glusterfs/README.md
  // +optional
  optional GlusterfsPersistentVolumeSource glusterfs = 4;

  // nfs represents an NFS mount on the host. Provisioned by an admin.
  // More info: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/volumes#nfs
  // +optional

  1. For volumes provisioned/deleted via external provisioner/deleter, `storage_operation_duration_seconds` will NOT wait for the external operation to be done before reporting latency metric (effectively close to 0). This will be fixed by using `volume_operation_total_seconds` instead

* Clusters with GCE feature 'DiskAlphaAPI' enabled can now dynamically provision GCE PD volumes. ([#59447](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59447), [@verult](https://github.com/verult))

* Added `keyring` parameter for Ceph RBD provisioner. ([#58287](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58287), [@madddi](https://github.com/madddi))

- For statically provisioned PVs, if its volume source is CSI type or it has migrated annotation, when it's deleted, the PersisentVolume controller won't changes its phase to the Failed state. 
  

- `volume.kubernetes.io/storage-provisioner` annotation will be added to dynamic provisioning required PVC. `volume.beta.kubernetes.io/storage-provisioner` annotation is deprecated. ([#104590](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104590), [@Jiawei0227](https://github.com/Jiawei0227))

## Dependencies

- When creating a PVC with the volume.beta.kubernetes.io/storage-provisioner annotation already set, the PV controller might have incorrectly deleted the newly provisioned PV instead of binding it to the PVC, depending on timing and system load. ([#95909](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95909), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly)) [SIG Apps and Storage]...

  - The built-in `system:csi-external-provisioner` and `system:csi-external-attacher` cluster roles are deprecated and will not be auto-created in a future release. CSI deployments should provide their own RBAC role definitions with required permissions. ([#69868](https://github.com/kubernetes...

* Azure file persistent volumes can use a new `secretNamespace` field to reference a secret in a different namespace than the one containing their bound persistent volume claim. The azure file persistent volume provisioner honors a corresponding `secretNamespace` storage class parameter to determine where to place secrets containing the storage account key. ([#47660](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/47660), [@rootfs](https://github.com/rootfs))

#### Azure Disk
* restrict name length for Azure specifications ([#40030](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/40030), [@colemickens](https://github.com/colemickens))
