* PVC may not be synced to controller local cache in time if PV is bound by external PV binder (e.g. kube-scheduler), double check if PVC is not found to prevent reclaiming PV wrongly. ([#67062](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67062), [@cofyc](https://github.com/cofyc))

* attachdetach controller attaches volumes immediately when Pod's PVCs are bound ([#66863](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66863), [@cofyc](https://github.com/cofyc))

* The `kubectl plugin list` command will now display discovered plugin paths in the same order as they are found in a user's PATH variable. ([#70443](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70443), [@juanvallejo](https://github.com/juanvallejo))
* Handle Windows named pipes in host mounts. ([#69484](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69484), [@ddebroy](https://github.com/ddebroy))

- Rename metrics `etcd_object_counts` to `apiserver_storage_object_counts` and mark it as stable. The original `etcd_object_counts` metrics name is marked as "Deprecated" and will be removed in the future.

* Bump version of prometheus-to-sd to 0.2.6 to decrease log noise and include latest security patches. ([#64963](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64963), [@loburm](https://github.com/loburm))

- A PersistentVolumeClaim may not have been synced to the controller local cache in time if the PersistentVolumeis bound by an external PV binder (such as kube-scheduler), so Kubernetes will now double check if PVC is not found in order to prevent the volume from being incorrectly reclaimed. ([#67062](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67062), [@cofyc](https://github.com/cofyc))

- `Kubectl describe <type>` and `kubectl top pod` will return a message saying `"No resources found"` or `"No resources found in <namespace> namespace"` if there are no results to display.
