* The vSphere cloud provider has a cleanup function with a loop,
    * inside of which a write lock was intended to prevent races against
    * VM creation, but the usage of the sync.RWMutex type is incorrect,
    * plus is placed in a defer call so the locking is effectively
    * nonexistent.  This patch adds an anonymous function call inside
    * the loop to correctly handle acquiring the write lock with deferred

The SIG also focused on adding functionality to the Kubernetes volume subsystem, such as alpha support for exposing volumes as block devices inside containers, extending the alpha volume-resizing support to more volume plugins, and topology-aware volume scheduling.

### Windows

- Kube-apiserver: regular expressions specified with the `--cors-allowed-origins` option are now validated to match the entire `hostname` inside the `Origin` header of the request and 
  must contain '^' or the '//' prefix to anchor to the start, and '$' or the port separator ':' to anchor to 

exec`. The addition of the `kubectl debug` [command](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/blob/master/keps/sig-cli/1441-kubectl-debug/README.md) (it is alpha but your feedback is more than welcome), allows developers to easily debug their Pods inside the cluster. We think this addition is invaluable.  This command allows one to create a temporary container which runs next to the Pod one is trying to examine, but also attaches to the console for interactive troubleshooting.

### Introducing...

* Fix pods failing to start when subPath is a dangling symlink from kubelet point of view, which can happen if it is running inside a container ([#48555](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/48555), [@redbaron](https://github.com/redbaron))

### SIG Node

- Fixed a bug in previous releases where a pod could be placed inside another pod's cgroup when specifying --cgroup-root ([#70678](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70678), [@dashpole](https://github.com/dashpole))

 - Scheduler's CycleState now embeds internal read/write locking inside its `Read()` and `Write()` functions. Meanwhile, `Lock()` and `Unlock()` function are removed. Scheduler plugin developers are now required to remove `CycleState#Lock()` and `CycleState#Unlock()`. Just simply use `Read()` and `Write()` as they're...

- Adding option for `kubectl cp` to resume on network errors until completion, requires tar in addition to tail inside the container image ([#104792](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/104792), [@matthyx](https://github.com/matthyx))

nline-volumes) feature allows CSI volumes to be specified directly in the pod specification for ephemeral use cases. They can be used to inject arbitrary states, such as configuration, secrets, identity, variables or similar information, directly inside pods using a mounted volume. This was initially introduced in 1.15 as an alpha feature, and it moved to GA. This feature is used by some CSI drivers such as the [secret-store CSI driver](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/secrets-store-csi-driver)....

		* Restored the ability of kubectl running inside a pod to consume resource files specifying a different namespace than the one the pod is running in. ([#44862](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/44862), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
