- List operations against the API now return internal server errors instead of partially complete lists when a value cannot be transformed from storage. The updated behavior is consistent with all other operations that require transforming data from storage such as watch and get.

* 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))

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

 - Remove storage metrics `storage_operation_errors_total`, since we already have `storage_operation_status_count`.And add new field `status` for `storage_operation_duration_seconds`, so that we can know about all status storage operation latency.

  The incorrect cost was evident when the result of a function was used in subsequent operations. ([#119809](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119809), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth and Cloud Provider]

* Use separate client for leader election in scheduler to avoid starving leader election by regular scheduler operations. ([#53793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53793), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

This facilitates 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.

### CSI Volume Snapshot graduates to General Availability

CSI Volume Snapshot moves to GA in the 1.20 release. This feature provides a standard way to trigger volume snapshot operations in Kubernetes and allows Kubernetes users to incorporate snapshot operations in a portable manner on any Kubernetes environment regardless of supporting underlying storage providers.
