This release brings additional power to both local storage and Persistent Volumes. [Mount namespace propagation](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/432) allows a container to mount a volume as rslave so that host mounts can be seen inside the container, or as rshared so that mounts made inside a container can be seen by the host. (Note that this is [not supported on Windows](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60275).) [Local Ephemeral Storage Capacity Isolation](https:/...

creation of dedicated nodes with extended resources. If operators want to create dedicated nodes with extended resources (such as GPUs, FPGAs, and so on), they are expected to taint the node with extended resource name as the key. This admission controller, if enabled, automatically adds tolerations for such taints to pods requesting extended resources, so users don't have to manually add these tolerations. ([#55839](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/55839),[ @mindprince](https://github.com/mindprince))...

* Fixed the webhook admission plugin so that it works even if the apiserver and the nodes are in two networks (e.g., in GKE). ([#50476](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/50476), [@caesarxuchao](https://github.com/caesarxuchao))

* Increase Azure default maximumLoadBalancerRuleCount to 250. ([#72621](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72621), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))
* Fixes a NPD bug on GCI, so that it disables glog writing to files for log-counter ([#76211](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76211), [@wangzhen127](https://github.com/wangzhen127))

* Add /bin/mkfifo symlink to bazel build for busybox, so that CI builds have /bin/tee ([#59268](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59268), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))

 - ACTION REQUIRED:
  

    * To avoid that negative effect only use per pod metrics from pods that are:
    * - ready (so metrics about them should be valid), or
    * - unready but creation and last readiness change timestamps are apart more than 10s (pods that have formerly been ready and so metrics are in at least some cases (pod becoming unready because of overload) very useful).

- Kubeadm: fixed a bug during kubeadm upgrade, where it is not possible to mount a new device and create a symbolic link for /etc/kubernetes (or a sub-directory) so that kubeadm stores its information on the mounted device. ([#123406](https://github.com/kubern...

### Other notable changes

* Bump GLBC version to 0.9.3 ([#45055](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/45055), [@nicksardo](https://github.com/nicksardo))
* kubeadm: Fix invalid assign statement so it is possible to register the master kubelet with other initial Taints ([#45376](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/45376), [@luxas](https://github.com/luxas))
