 * Each {@code ClosingFuture} pipeline must be ended. To end a pipeline, decide whether you want to
 * close the captured objects automatically or manually.

* Make ConfigMap volume readable as non-root ([#23793](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/23793), [@pmorie](https://github.com/pmorie))
* only include running and pending pods in daemonset should place calculation ([#23929](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/23929), [@mikedanese](https://github.com/mikedanese))

- Try to send watch bookmarks (if requested) periodically in addition to sending them right before timeout ([#90560](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90560), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t)) [SIG API Machinery]

  - [stable] Kubernetes Dashboard UI - a great looking Kubernetes Dashboard UI with 90% CLI parity for at-a-glance management. [docs](https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard)
  - [stable] `kubectl` no longer applies defaults before sending objects to the server in create and update requests, allowing the server to apply the defaults. ([kubernetes/features#55](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/55))

## Known Issues

* Per Volume Inode Accounting ([#35132](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/35132), [@dashpole](https://github.com/dashpole))
* [AppArmor] Hold bad AppArmor pods in pending rather than rejecting ([#35342](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/35342), [@timstclair](https://github.com/timstclair))

### Container Storage Interface graduations

- Fix a bug that when PodTopologySpread rejects Pods, they may be stuck in Pending state for 5 min in a worst case scenario.
  The same problem could happen with custom plugins which have Pod/Add or Pod/Update in EventsToRegister,

* Fixes an issue with upgrade requests made via pod/service/node proxy subresources sending a non-absolute HTTP request-uri to backends ([#52065](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/52065), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* Reload systemd config files before starting kubelet. ([#65702](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65702), [@mborsz](https://github.com/mborsz))
* Fixes an issue where Portworx PVCs remain in pending state when created using a StorageClass with empty parameters ([#64895](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/64895), [@harsh-px](https://github.com/harsh-px))

- Fixed an issue where pods did not correctly have a pending phase after the node reboot. ([#128516](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/128516), [@gjkim42](https://github.com/gjkim42)) [SIG Node and Testing]
