subPathExpr field creates the path with root permission

I am trying to run the container in the context of ubuntu. Each pod will create logs under /logs folder. Since all the pods of the same service will use same folder, I would like to create a subpath and expose it to container as logs. The subpath is the pod name. The subpath is created with root permission. Since, I am trying to run in the context of ubuntu, the container is unable to create logs under the mounted path. How to change the permission of subPath created dynamically? Are there any other ways to do it?

Output of id command.
uid=1000(ubuntu) gid=1000(ubuntu) groups=1000(ubuntu),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),27(sudo),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),109(netdev),110(lxd)

For instance, I have mounted /home/prod_logs/catalog/ as /logs. The pod name is generated at run time using subPathExpr

Move securityContext under container demoservice so that other containers can run as root. Introduce one initContainer (busybox) which will create your subdir and chown to 1000:1000.
