Question : (I am performing operations on tape drive using st driver) While performing read operation on tape (using read()), EOD occured. After EOD occured, i m firing MTIOCGET request and getting the tape status. After getting tape status, i am checking for the GMT_EOD. But GMT_EOD is not getting set. Can anybody tell the reason why GMT_EOD is not getting set even if read() fails because of EOD occured ??
