This adds a granular policy checking framework for
placement based on nova.policy but with a lot of
the legacy cruft removed, like the is_admin and
context_is_admin rules.
A new PlacementPolicyFixture is added along with
a new configuration option, [placement]/policy_file,
which is needed because the default policy file
that gets used in config is from [oslo_policy]/policy_file
which is being used as the nova policy file. As
far as I can tell, oslo.policy doesn't allow for
multiple policy files with different names unless
I'm misunderstanding how the policy_dirs option works.
With these changes, we can have something like:
/etc/nova/policy.json - for nova policy rules
/etc/nova/placement-policy.yaml - for placement rules
The docs are also updated to include the placement
policy sample along with a tox builder for the sample.
This starts by adding granular rules for CRUD operations
on the /resource_providers and /resource_providers/{uuid}
routes which use the same descriptions from the placement
API reference. Subsequent patches will add new granular
rules for the other routes.

OpenStack Nova
==============
OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide
variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more),
Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.
Use the following resources to learn more.
API
---
To learn how to use Nova's API, consult the documentation available online at:
- `Compute API Guide <https://developer.openstack.org/api-guide/compute/>`__
- `Compute API Reference <https://developer.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/>`__
For more information on OpenStack APIs, SDKs and CLIs in general, refer to:
- `OpenStack for App Developers <https://www.openstack.org/appdev/>`__
- `Development resources for OpenStack clouds
<https://developer.openstack.org/>`__
Operators
---------
To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation
available online at:
- `OpenStack Nova <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/>`__
In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to
the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party
operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for
reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker,
available at:
- `Bug Tracker <https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova>`__
Developers
----------
For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the
CONTRIBUTING.rst.
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst
file, and pass all unit tests.
Further developer focused documentation is available at:
- `Official Nova Documentation <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/>`__
- `Official Client Documentation
<https://docs.openstack.org/python-novaclient/>`__
Other Information
-----------------
During each `Summit`_ and `Project Team Gathering`_, we agree on what the whole
community wants to focus on for the upcoming release. The plans for nova can
