updateAccountOnSignIn

How updateAccountOnSignIn works, I have a genericOauth configuration, where user has extra role property, which can be change in future. I want to take that role and update the user whenever he sign in.

one thing you can work with db hooks also if your usecase actually works with the mapToUserProfile - you can use that - 
plugins: [
    genericOAuth({
      config: [{
        providerId: "your-provider",
        clientId: "your-client-id",
        clientSecret: "your-client-secret",
        mapProfileToUser: async (profile) => {
          return {
            // Map other user fields
            role: profile.role || "default-role" // Set the role from the provider's profile
          };
        }
      }]
    })
  ]
plugins: [
    genericOAuth({
      config: [{
        providerId: "your-provider",
        clientId: "your-client-id",
        clientSecret: "your-client-secret",
        mapProfileToUser: async (profile) => {
          return {
            // Map other user fields
            role: profile.role || "default-role" // Set the role from the provider's profile
          };
        }
      }]
    })
  ]

Yes this is my current setup. But if the role changes on Identity provider configuration, I want to update the users collection based on that. Now only user is created when first time sign in happens, later user is not updating on sign in.
