Description
Description
Currently the CSI integration does not support setting permissions on newly created volumes. The CSI spec has support for it via VOLUME_MOUNT_GROUP, see https://github.com/container-storage-interface/spec/blob/master/spec.md.
Supporting this in Docker Swarm would mean that more services could be run under a different user than root.
See also the discussion on https://github.com/hetznercloud/csi-driver/issues/377 for more background information.

Research direction
No repository file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reading the CSI specification's VOLUME_MOUNT_GROUP section and tracing Moby's Docker Swarm CSI volume creation and mount flow. Done means newly created CSI volumes can receive the requested ownership or permissions and services can run under a non-root user.
