Greetings All,
I am wondering if in the function,ni_stc_dma_channel_select_bitfield the line:
return 1 << channel;
is guaranteed to be below the threshold that guarantees us to not overflow on
a unsigned 32 integer due to bit wise shifting to the left.
Thanks Nick


if (channel < 4)
return 1 << channel;

So, yes.
