- CSI Migration: Fixes issue where all volumes with the same inline volume inner spec name were staged in the same path. Migrated inline volumes are now staged at a unique path per unique volume. ([#84754](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/84754), [@davidz627](https://github.com/davidz627))

With Kubernetes v1.12, SIG Storage also introduced alpha support for [volume snapshotting](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/177). This feature introduces the ability to create/delete volume snapshots and create new volumes from a snapshot using the Kubernetes API.

- Generic ephemeral volumes, a new alpha feature under the `GenericEphemeralVolume` feature gate, provide a more flexible alternative to `EmptyDir` volumes: as with `EmptyDir`, volumes are created and deleted for each pod automatically by Kubernetes. But because the normal provisioning process is used (`PersistentVolumeClaim`), storage can be provided by third-party storage vendors and all of the usual volume features work. Volumes don't need to be empty; for example,...

All access to MinIO object storage is via S3/SQL SELECT API. In addition to the compute nodes, MinIO containers are also managed by Kubernetes as stateful containers with local storage (JBOD/JBOF) mapped as persistent local volumes. This architecture enables multi-tenant MinIO, allowing isolation of data between customers.

- **Storage**
  - [beta] Persistent Volume provisioning now supports multiple provisioners using StorageClass configuration. ([docs](http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/persistent-volumes/)) ([kubernetes/features#36](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/36))

* The strategicmerge patchMergeKey for VolumeMounts was changed from "name" to "mountPath".  This was necessary because the name field refers to the name of the Volume, and is not a unique key for the VolumeMount.  Multiple VolumeMounts will have the same Volume name if mounting the same volume more than once.  The "mountPath" is verified to be unique and can act as the mergekey.

### Promoted CSI Ephemeral Volume to Stable

- Add e2e test to node expand volume with secret ([#115451](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/115451), [@zhucan](https://github.com/zhucan)) [SIG Storage and Testing]

SIG Storage continued work to [enable migration of in-tree volume plugins](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/625) to the Container Storage Interface (CSI). SIG Storage worked on bringing CSI to feature parity with in-tree functionality, including functionality like resizing, inline volumes, and more. SIG Storage introduces new alpha functionality in CSI that doesn't exist in the Kubernetes Storage subsystem yet, like volume cloning.

Volume cloning enables users to specify...
