   5 Ceph is structured into libraries which are built and then combined together to
   6 make executables and other libraries.
   7
   8 - libcommon: a collection of utilities which are available to nearly every ceph
   9   library and executable. In general, libcommon should not contain global
  10   variables, because it is intended to be linked into libraries such as
  11   libcephfs.so.
  12
  13 - libglobal: a collection of utilities focused on the needs of Ceph daemon
  14   programs. In here you will find pidfile management functions, signal
  15   handlers, and so forth.
