- Enabled kube-controller-manager '--concurrent-job-syncs' flag works on orphan Pod processors ([#126567](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126567), [@fusida](https://github.com/fusida)) [SIG Apps]

    * Specifically the new controller watches the API server for scheduled pods. It processes each pod and ensures that any volumes that implement the volume Attacher interface are attached to the node their pod is scheduled to.

a pod only applied to CPU resources (such as `cpu_shares`). The Kubernetes cgroup manager uses `memory.limit_in_bytes` in v1 cgroups to limit the memory capacity for a container, and uses `oom_scores` to recommend an order for killing container processes if an out-of-memory event occurs. This implementation has shortcomings: for `Guaranteed` pods, memory can not be fully reserved, and the page cache is at risk of being recycled. For `Burstable` pods, overcommitting memory (setting `request` less...

- GCE/Windows: When the service cannot be stopped Stackdriver logging processes are now force killed ([#77378](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77378), [@yujuhong](https://github.com/yujuhong))

- Fixed issue on Windows when calculating cpu limits on nodes with more than 64 logical processors ([#114231](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114231), [@mweibel](https://github.com/mweibel))

### SIG-cloud-provider

This is the first Kubernetes release for this SIG! In v1.12, SIG Cloud Provider focused on building the processes and infrastructure to better support existing and new cloud providers. Some of these initiatives (many of which are still in progress) are:

- Kubelet: Fixed the bug of getting the number of cpu when the number of cpu logical processors is more than 64 in windows ([#97378](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/97378), [@hwdef](https://github.com/hwdef)) [SIG Node and Windows]

- Supported fine-grained supplemental groups policy (KEP-3619), which enabled
  fine-grained control for supplementary groups in the first container processes.
  This allows you to choose whether to include groups defined in the container image (/etc/groups)
