### Promoted Local Ephemeral Storage Capacity Isolation to Stable

* Kubelet will now set extended resource capacity to zero after it restarts. If the extended resource is exported by a device plugin, its capacity will change to a valid value after the device plugin re-connects with the Kubelet. If the extended resource is exported by an external component through direct node status capacity patching, the component should repatch the field after kubelet becomes ready again. During the time gap, pods...

### Storage capacity tracking

  - Added user-owned fields in `ResourceClaim` to specify resource requirements against each device capacity.
  - Added scheduler-owned field in `ResourceClaim.Status` to specify how much device capacity is reserved for a specific request.

* Enforcement of fsGroup; enable ScaleIO multiple-instance volume mapping; default PVC capacity; alignment of PVC, PV, and volume names for dynamic provisioning ([#48999](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/48999), [@vladimirvivien](https://github.com/vladimirvivien))



# v1.7.4

* Fix CSI volume limits not showing up in node's capacity and allocatable ([#70540](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70540), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))

* [stable] Support Attach and Detach operations for ReadWriteOnce (RWO) volumes that use iSCSI and Fibre Channel plugins.

* [stable] Expose storage usage metrics

  * The available capacity of a given Persistent Volume (PV) is available by calling the Kubernetes metrics API.

* [stable] Volume plugin metrics

* Kubelet will set extended resource capacity to zero after it restarts. If the extended resource is exported by a device plugin, its capacity will change to a valid value after the device plugin re-connects with the Kubelet.

### Storage Capacity and Volume Expansion Are Generally Available

[Storage capacity tracking](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/1472)
supports exposing currently available storage capacity via [CSIStorageCapacity objects](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/storage-capacity/#api)
and enhances scheduling of pods that use CSI volumes with late binding.

- Add support for Windows Network stats in Containerd ([#105744](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105744), [@jsturtevant](https://github.com/jsturtevant)) [SIG Node, Testing and Windows]
- Added show-capacity option to `kubectl top node` to show `Capacity` resource usage ([#102917](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102917), [@bysnupy](https://github.com/bysnupy)) [SIG CLI]
