## Kubefed

* Deprecate the `--secret-name` flag from `kubefed join`, instead generating the secret name arbitrarily. ([#42513](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/42513), [@perotinus](https://github.com/perotinus))


### **Kubernetes API**
#### User Provided Extensions

- Kubernetes is now built with Golang 1.16.10 (#106224, @cpanato) [SIG Cloud Provider, Instrumentation, Release and Testing]
- Update debian-base, debian-iptables, setcap images to pick up CVE fixes
  - Debian-base to v1.9.0
  - Debian-iptables to v1.6.7
  - setcap to v2.0.4 (#106147, @cpanato) [SIG Release and Testing]

### Failing Test

- The cloud config for Azure cloud provider can now be initialized from Kubernetes secret azure-cloud-provider in kube-system namespace
    - the secret is a serialized version of `azure.json` file with key cloud-config. And the secret name is azure-cloud-provider.
    - A new option cloudConfigType has been added to the cloud-config file. Supported values are: `file`, `secret` and `merge` (`merge` is the default value).

- Use of secret-based service account tokens now adds an `authentication.k8s.io/legacy-token-autogenerated-secret` or `authentication.k8s.io/legacy-token-manual-secret` audit annotation containing the name of the secret used.

* Adds --append-hash flag to kubectl create configmap/secret, which will append a short hash of the configmap/secret contents to the name during creation. ([#49961](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49961), [@mtaufen](https://github.com/mtaufen))

- Added e2e test to node expand volume with secret ([#115451](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115451), [@zhucan](https://github.com/zhucan))

- Fixed a bug where adding an ephemeral container to a pod which references a new secret or config map doesn't give the pod access to that new secret or config map. (#114984, @cslink) ([#129670](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/129670), [@cslink](https://github.com/cslink)) [SIG Auth]

* kubelet: resolved hang/timeout issues when running large numbers of pods with unique configmap/secret references by reverting to 1.11 configmap/secret lookup behavior ([#74755](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/74755), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* Adds --append-hash flag to kubectl create configmap/secret, which will append a short hash of the configmap/secret contents to the name during creation. ([#49961](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/49961), [@mtaufen](https://github.com/mtaufen))

* change default azure file mount permission to 0777 ([#69854](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69854), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))
* Verify invalid secret/configmap/projected volumes before calling setup ([#68691](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68691), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))
