Parallel data transmission using GPIO and DMA STM32F051xx

Hi all! I'm trying to create a parallel synchronous data transmission using DMA and GPIO on a STM32F051 MCU. I've been following the AN4666 document that ST released, but is set up for STM32F4 MCUs. I also don't use HAL drivers, unlike the example code ST has for that document.

I'm having issues with getting the DMA to output data to the pins. I see only 0 on the pins. I should see all 1s as I set the data buffer to 0xFFFF for all location in the buffer. I'm guessing I don't have DMA set up properly or have it tied correctly up to TIM1. TIM1 is currently outputting a 20KHz PWM signal as expected.

Use = 0xFFFF, not &= 0xFFFF, the array is probably already zero.

Check if DMA1 supports M2M operation, not sufficiently familiar with the F051, check RM

Changed to =0xFFFF. From what the RM says, DMA1 should support M2M. My attempt is to go from memory-to-peripheral, which it also supports.

I did see in the RM on table 29 that for TIM1, I should be using Channel 3. It says for TIM1_CH2 the DMA request should be channel 3. I have changed that as well.
