Description

On shared systems like shared hosting it might be useful to prevent regular users from creating snapshots on CephFS.

A rogue user might create thousands of snapshots using a lot of space or even be a DoS for a MDS.

A min_uid/max_uid setting for the MDS or mount parameter for the kernel module might be useful to limit the creation of snapshots.

Bulk updating project=ceph category=mds bugs so that I can remove the MDS category from the Ceph project to avoid confusion.
