  Please use the command "kubeadm config migrate" to migrate your existing v1beta3 configuration to v1beta4.

 
#### kube-proxy:
- Added kube-proxy flags `--ipvs-tcp-timeout`, `--ipvs-tcpfin-timeout`, `--ipvs-udp-timeout` to configure IPVS connection timeouts. ([#85517](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85517), [@andrewsykim](https://github.com/andrewsykim)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle and Network]

* fix get azure accounts timeout issue when there is no out-bound IP ([#74191](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/74191), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))

 - A bug was fixed in kubelet where exec probe timeouts were not respected. Ensure that pods relying on this behavior are updated to correctly handle probe timeouts.
  

* Pass-through volume MountOptions to global mount (NodeStageVolume) on the node for CSI ([#80191](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80191), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))
* changes timeout value in csi plugin from 15s to 2min which fixes the timeout issue ([#79529](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/79529), [@andyzhangx](https://github.com/andyzhangx))



# v1.13.9

[Documentation](https://docs.k8s.io)

- kubeadm: fixed the bug where the `v1beta4` `Timeouts.EtcdAPICall` field was not respected in etcd client operations, and the default timeout of 2 minutes was always used. ([#129859](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/129859), [@neolit123](https://github.com/neolit123)) [SIG Cluster Lifecycle]

- Kubelet metrics gathered through metrics-server or prometheus should no longer timeout for Windows nodes running more than 3 pods. ([#87730](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87730), ...

- Until this release, the iscsi plugin was waiting 10 seconds for a path to appear in the device list. However this timeout is not enough, or is less than the default device discovery timeout in most systems, which prevents certain devices from being discovered. This timeout has been raised to 30 seconds, which should help to avoid mount issues due to device discovery. ([#78475](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78475), [@humblec]...
