Relative clauses with it

Hello. I can understand the meanings but I would like to ask something about the sentences below.

Is it me you are looking for?
It is politeness that he is trying to achieve.
Is it you who has been saying these things?
Is it you talking to me on the phone that night?

In these sentence, in this type of sentences, does the relative clause identify the subject "it", or does the relative clause identify the object (like "me", "you" and "politeness" in these sentences)? Thank you.
