* Implements rolling update for StatefulSets. Updates can be performed using the RollingUpdate, Paritioned, or OnDelete strategies. OnDelete implements the manual behavior from 1.6. status now tracks  ([#46669](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46669), [@kow3ns](https://github.com/kow3ns))

* In anticipation of CSI 1.0 in the next release, Kubernetes 1.12 calls the CSI `NodeGetInfo` RPC instead of `NodeGetId` RPC. Ensure your CSI Driver implements `NodeGetInfo(...)` before upgrading to 1.12. [@saad-ali](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/68688)

- Kube-proxy: added `--logging-format` flag to support structured logging. ([#117800](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117800), [@cyclinder](https://github.com/cyclinder))
- NodeVolumeLimits implement the `PreFilter` extension point for skipping the Filter phase if the Pod doesn't use volumes with limits. ([#115398](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115398), [@tangwz](https://github.com/tangwz)) [SIG Scheduling]

    * HostPortSyncer: operates only with one IP family, skipping portmap entries with different IP families
* Implement the documented API semantics of list-type and map-type atomic to reject non-atomic sub-types. ([#84722](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84722), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))

- The kubelet and the default docker runtime now support running ephemeral containers in the Linux process namespace of a target container. Other container runtimes must implement support for this feature before it will be available for that runtime. ([#84731](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84731), [@verb](https://github.com/verb)) [SIG Node]

  * [alpha] CRI now supports specifying the GID of the container at both LinuxSandboxSecurityContext and LinuxContainerSecurityContext in addition to specifying the UID. Support is implemented for dockershim. [@krmayankk]

- `wait.ContextForChannel()` now implements the context.Context interface and
  does not return a cancellation function. ([#115140](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115140), [@smarterclayton](https://github.com/smarterclayton))
