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://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/361)...

* CRI now defines mounting behavior. If the host path doesn't exist, the runtime should return an error. If the host path is a symlink, the runtime should follow the symlink and mount the real destination to the container.
