This need a patch in ceph anyway IMO. So, yeah we will need to effectively block cephx permission changes if there is a client mounted with an active idmapped mount. Sounds as something that require massive changes on the server side. At the same time this will just block users from using idmapped mounts along with UID/GID restrictions. If you want me to change server-side anyways, isn't it better just to extend cephfs protocol to properly handle UID/GIDs with idmapped mounts? (It was originally proposed by Christian.) What we need to do here is to add a separate UID/GID fields for ceph requests those are creating a new inodes (like mknod, symlink, etc).
