Colin Patrick McCabe 8adaa0478a common: make command-line programs log to stderr
command-line programs (as opposed to daemons) should send their logs to
stderr rather than to a log file, syslog, etc. This is especially
important because most users want to run the ceph command-line programs
as non-root, and often only root has permissions to add to the ceph
log directory.

Create a new function, set_foreground_logging, that overrides ceph.conf
settings to force all log output to stderr. For daemons, we still only
send the very highest priority messages to stderr, and only before they
daemonize().

Don't ever log to stdout because it interferes with scripts that parse
the output of stdout. Instead, log to stderr if the user gives the
--foreground or --nodaemon argument.

Ceph - a scalable distributed file system
-----------------------------------------

Please see http://ceph.newdream.net/ for current info.

----

To build the server daemons, and FUSE client,

$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure

$ make
 or
$ cd src
$ make

(Note that the FUSE client will only be built if libfuse is present.)

----

A quick summary of binaries that will be built in src/

daemons:
 cmon -- monitor daemon.  handles cluster state and configuration
         information.
 cosd -- storage daemon.  stores objects on a given block device.
 cmds -- metadata daemon.  handles file system namespace.
 ceph -- send management commands to the monitor cluster.

userland clients:
 cfuse -- fuse client.
 csyn -- synthetic workload generator client.

tools:
 monmaptool -- create/edit mon map
 osdmaptool -- create/edit osd map 
 crushtool -- create/edit crush map

scripts:
 mkcephfs -- cluster mkfs tool
 init-ceph -- init.d start/stop script
