For the reverse of the original problem, where (say) I back up a 'zfs
send' stream to tape, then later on, after upgrading my system, I want
to get that stream back.
Does 'zfs receive' support reading a version X stream and dumping it
into a version X+N zfs filesystem?
If not, frankly, that's a higher priority than the reverse.
Your question confuses me greatly - am I missing something? "zfs recv" of a full
stream will create a new filesystem of the appropriate version, which you may
then "zfs upgrade" if you wish. And restoring incrementals to a different fs rev
doesn't make sense. As long as support for older fs versions isn't removed from
the kernel, this shouldn't ever be a problem.
