SCSI_ALLOC_TARGET(9)						  SCSI mid layer					      SCSI_ALLOC_TARGET(9)

NAME
       scsi_alloc_target - allocate a new or find an existing target

SYNOPSIS
       struct scsi_target * scsi_alloc_target(struct device * parent, int channel, uint id);

ARGUMENTS
       parent
	   parent of the target (need not be a scsi host)

       channel
	   target channel number (zero if no channels)

       id
	   target id number

DESCRIPTION
       Return an existing target if one exists, provided it hasn't already gone into STARGET_DEL state, otherwise allocate a new target.

       The target is returned with an incremented reference, so the caller is responsible for both reaping and doing a last put
