AIC7(censored) card gone wild?

Hi Justin, list ...

I have a 2xPIII 797 Mhz with an AIC-7899P U160/m; I have
been running it under 2.5.66 since it was released, always
using the AIC7XXXX driver (new one).

However, suddenly something weird happened; since one week
ago, I get panics (in the serial console) like
the one attached (milikk.panic.txt) always caused or having
an rsync process as current (rsync is used for backup).

I also noticed that at about the same time I started to
get got those panics, I get the following when booting
the kernel:

scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.28
        <Adaptec aic7899 Ultra160 SCSI adapter>
        aic7899: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs

        <Adaptec aic7899 Ultra160 SCSI adapter>
        aic7899: Ultra160 Wide Channel B, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs

scsi1: Unexpected busfree while idle

scsi1:0:4:0: Attempting to queue an ABORT message
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dump Card State Begins <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
scsi1: Dumping Card State while idle, at SEQADDR 0x9
Card was paused
ACCUM = 0x2, SINDEX = 0x48, DINDEX = 0xe4, ARG_2 = 0x0
HCNT = 0x0 SCBPTR = 0x0
SCSIPHASE[0x0] SCSISIGI[0x0] ERROR[0x0] SCSIBUSL[0x0]

SSTAT2[0x0] SSTAT3[0x0] SIMODE0[0x8] SIMODE1[0xa4]
..... <SNIPPED- full version @ attached milikk.dump> ...

So I wonder, what does that error mean? SCSI1 has attached a
CDRW (Sony Yamaha CDRW 8/4/24) but now it doesn't show up
anymore (and so, I cannot get the model). .

Could it mean by SCSI Adapter is hosed? or my CDRW drive?
or something else? I see this same behavior with 2.5.72,
although it gets stuck in "scsi1: Unexpected busfree while
idle\nSEQADDR == 0x31", repeats it, goes up to 0x32,
back to 0x31 again, repeats 0x31 ...

Removing the CDRW helps (no more message) so I tend to assume
the CDRW is dead; but I am still waiting to see a panic again.

Thanks,
