+# Description:
+# Verify spill blocks are correctly preserved in raw sends.
+#
+# Strategy:
+# 1) Create a set of files each containing some file data in an
+#	encrypted filesystem.
+# 2) Add enough xattrs to the file to require a spill block.
+# 3) Snapshot and raw send these files to a new dataset.
+# 4) Modify the files and spill blocks in a variety of ways.
+# 5) Send the changes using an raw incremental send stream.
+# 6) Verify that all the xattrs (and thus the spill block) were
+#    preserved when receiving the incremental stream.
