* Retry 'connection refused' errors when setting up clusters on GCE. ([#57394](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57394), [@mborsz](https://github.com/mborsz))

* YAMLDecoder Read now returns the number of bytes read ([#57000](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57000), [@sel](https://github.com/sel))

* Kubernetes will try to read the openstack auth config from the client config and fall back to read from the environment variables if the auth config is not available. ([#60200](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60200), [@dixudx](https://github.com/dixudx))
