The basic idea here is to replace the use of a single object ring in
the Application class with a collection of object rings. The
collection includes not only the Ring object itself but the policy
name associated with it, the filename for the .gz and any other
metadata associated with the policy that may be needed. When
containers are created, a policy (thus a specific obj ring) is
selected allowing apps to specify policy at container creation time
and leverage policies simply by using different containers for object
operations.
The policy collection is based off of info in the swift.conf file.
The format of the sections in the .conf file is as follows:
swift.conf format:
[storage-policy:0]
name = chicken
[storage-policy:1]
name = turkey
default = yes
With the above format:
- Policy 0 will always be used for access to existing containers
without the policy specified. The ring name for policy 0 is always
'object', assuring backwards compatiblity. The parser will always
create a policy 0 even if not specified
- The policy with 'default=yes' is the one used for new container
creation. This allows the admin to specify which policy is used without
forcing the application to add the metadata.
This commit simply introduces storage policies and the loading
thereof; nobody's using it yet. That will follow in subsequent
commits.
