You are quite right.

        I have more on the reading tapes problem I reported earlier.  I changed 
        #DEFINE debug 0 to 1 and recompiled.  I have more error messages as I 
        also enabled verbose scsi error reporting.  Attached is the output of 
        dmesg after the tape read operation fails.  Notice that the tape does 
        read all the files ok, but then has troubles ending the operation.

Maybe you can show in plain text what is wrong?
(If it is hundreds of kilobytes a URL should be given.
If it is not more than a hundred lines or so, plaintext
is much better than something that cannot be read without
additional effort.)


Let me conjecture: You read a tape, get a timeout, say while rewinding -
the scsi layer sees an error and tries to correct it, using abort,
bus device reset, scsi bus reset, host reset...


The end result depends on what driver you are using.
What happened in your case?
