Not able to mount sockets from /var/lib/vhost_sockets/ into the pod but it works on pod restart.

[shweta50]

I'm running ovs-dpdk in a pod. To enable Userspace CNI to access containerized OVS-DPDK using a workaround take ovs-vsctl calls made from the host and direct them to the appropriate container running OVS-DPDK.
Userspace creates vhost user sockets on the host. ( Mount from /var/lib/kubelet/pods/d034a197-2908-4889-9831-c0040ddb2bae/volumes/kubernetes.io~empty-dir/shared-dir to /var/lib/vhost_sockets/d034a197-2908-4889-9831-c0040ddb2bae)

# ls -l /var/lib/vhost_sockets/d034a197-2908-4889-9831-c0040ddb2bae/36505445fd91-net1 
srwxrwxr-x 1 uuidd input 0 Mar 22 10:34 /var/lib/vhost_sockets/d034a197-2908-4889-9831-c0040ddb2bae/36505445fd91-net1

As it’s communicating with ovs-dpdk in the pod it’s looking for sockets in the ovs-dpdk pod. I'm trying to mount sockets into the pod, but it’s not mounting the socket.
options: {vhost-server-path=“/var/lib/vhost_sockets/91aa04fd-df05-402b-b4c1-4d4ea85fc8e5/e3dbe834316c-net1”}

Not just sockets it’s not mounting other files created in the socket dir too.
however, it gets mounted when we restart ovs-dpdk pod.

I see that permissions of the socket directory in the pod are different before and after pod restart.
before restart,

bash-5.1# ls -l /var/lib/vhost_sockets/
drwxr-x--- 2 root root 4096 Mar 22 10:34 d034a197-2908-4889-9831-c0040ddb2bae

after pod restart,

bash-5.1# ls -l /var/lib/vhost_sockets/
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Mar 22 10:37 d034a197-2908-4889-9831-c0040ddb2bae

Any pointers on what can be done here?
