 1. openstack 鉴权简单介绍   
    众所周知，openstack通过keystone用来完成authenticate（认证），真正的鉴权（authorize）是在各个模块分别做的，具体实现为每个模块都有一个policy文件，叫policy.json，里面定义了鉴权用的rules。
    以nova为例，policy文件的位置在：/etc/nova/policy.json，下面先来看几条rules，了解其基本含义：

"compute:create": "",
"compute:create:attach_network": "",
"compute:create:attach_volume": "",
"compute:create:forced_host": "is_admin:True",
"compute:get_all": "",
"compute:get_all_tenants": "",
"compute:start": "rule:admin_or_owner",
"compute:stop": "rule:admin_or_owner",
"compute:unlock_override": "rule:admin_api",

语法规则为：rule:[result]
    rule：指这条规则是干啥的，通常对应一个action，以类似scope:action的形式给出，scope表示作用范围，action表示执行哪种操作
    result: 表示这条rule的判定结果或者如何进行判定，比如"compute:create:forced_host": "is_admin:True",如果执行此操作的用户具有admin角色（role），则这条结果的判定结果就是True。
另外，rule是可以嵌套的，比如"compute:stop": "rule:admin_or_owner",表示compute:stop这条规则的结果为admin_or_owner这条规则的结果，而admin_or_owner规则如下：

"admin_or_owner": "is_admin:True or project_id:%(project_id)s",

如果调用这个操作的用户的角色是admin，就返回True，或者返回用户所属的project的id.

2. policy鉴权代码分析
针对每一个操作，都会经过一个叫@wrap_check_policy的decorator，以nova的resize操作为例，在执行真正的resize代码之前，先要经过一个叫@wrap_check_policy的装饰器来完成policy的check过程，具体参见后面的代码check_policy函数：

    @wrap_check_policy
    @check_instance_lock
    @check_instance_cell
    @check_instance_state(vm_state=[vm_states.ACTIVE, vm_states.STOPPED],
                          task_state=[None])
    def resize(self, context, instance, flavor_id=None,
               **extra_instance_updates):

check_policy(context, action, target, scope='compute')函数有四个参数：
(1) context: 执行resize操作的上下文，其内容包括project_id, user_id, role，auth_token等信息，具体如下：

{'project_name': u'demo', 'user_id': u'a51e07e52af24111973dd7e11ece97f3', 'roles': [u'admin'], 'timestamp': '2014-03-10T08:45:56.552624', 'auth_token': '851012cfd5ad220e02cc3bc61b31c5f5', 'remote_address': '10.2.45.133', 'quota_class': None, 'is_admin': True, 'tenant': u'999c9fb0d7684ce1913cac4cc6122e51', 'service_catalog': [{u'endpoints': [{u'adminURL': u'', u'region': u'RegionOne', u'id': u'0987e932f0a0408ca7a5a31200c8ac51', u'internalURL': u'', u'publicURL': u''}], u'endpoints_links': [], u'type': u'volume', u'name': u'cinder'}], 'request_id': 'req-292b93ac-0a2b-488e-8a51-ea734286b07c', 'instance_lock_checked': False, 'project_id': u'999c9fb0d7684ce1913cac4cc6122e51', 'user_name': u'admin', 'read_deleted': 'no', 'user': u'a51e07e52af24111973dd7e11ece97f3'}

(2) action：表示当前执行的操作是啥，这里就是resize
(3) target：操作针对的object是啥，这里就是instance id
(4) scope：当前操作的作用域是啥，主要为了与policy文件中定义的作用域匹配，这里为compute，即nova执行的操作

def check_policy(context, action, target, scope='compute'):
        _action = '%s:%s' % (scope, action)  ##这里拼接成policy.json的rule，即_action=compute:resize
        nova.policy.enforce(context, _action, target)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    def enforce(context, action, target, do_raise=True):
        """Verifies that the action is valid on the target in this context.

           :param context: nova context
           :param action: string representing the action to be checked
               this should be colon separated for clarity.
               i.e. ``compute:create_instance``,
               ``compute:attach_volume``,
               ``volume:attach_volume``
           :param target: dictionary representing the object of the action
               for object creation this should be a dictionary representing the
               location of the object e.g. ``{'project_id': context.project_id}``
           :param do_raise: if True (the default), raises PolicyNotAuthorized;
               if False, returns False

           :raises nova.exception.PolicyNotAuthorized: if verification fails
               and do_raise is True.

           :return: returns a non-False value (not necessarily "True") if
               authorized, and the exact value False if not authorized and
               do_raise is False.

        init()   ##policy.json被cache到cache_info数据结构中，init()函数就是去检查policy.json是否已经被加载或修改过，如果cache_info结构为空，说明policy.json还没有加载过，则执行加载；如果policy.json被修改过，也会重新进行加载

3. 总结 
    之前一直以为修改了policy.json文件，需要重启service才能重新加载policy.json生效，通过分析代码，证明policy.json是动态更新的。另外，通过分析代码，也搞清楚了如何添加自定义的rule，以便实现更细粒度的rule，稍后会给出一个自己实现的例子。
