Can anyone tell me what libzdoor is? They list it among other C libraries in this article, but googling it I couldn't find any information about it. Even the github repo has no README. Very unusual not to be able to find info about a library, don't think it's ever happened to me before!

libzdoor is an extension of libdoor[1] done by Joyent. It is focusing on using doors to bridge the barrier between none global zone and global zone. Handling zone events such as boot, shutdown, deletion. It is used in a the sshd plugin that allows a process in the global zone to manage ssh keys (and ssh key access) into zones.
