I'm using CubeIDE for development. I'd like to sample an analog pin with a consistent sampling rate and I'd like that sampling rate to be as high possible. Hence I configured PCLK2 to run at 72 MHz, allowing me to reach the maximum allowed sampling rate of 36 MHz in the ADC. With the ADC configured to 6-bit accuracy, I'm expecting each measurement to take 18 CPU cycles.
Because I'd also like to perform FFT on the samples, I figured I need to delegate the storage of samples to DMA. To reduce the overhead in the main loop, I figured I should set the ADC to run in continuous mode, and the DMA to run in circular mode. My understanding is that this way the measurements would be automatically transferred to memory, and I'd only have to worry about handling the data whenever I'd get an interrupt from the DMA, which would happen once when the buffer is half-full, and once when it is full.
I'd appreciate a step by step guide on exactly how to set the device up for my use case using HAL, in case I missed any steps or misunderstood the purpose of any settings. When I tried to get circular DMA to work, the firs half of the buffer contained valid values, while the second one contained some that seemed corrupted (outside of the range of a 6-bit unsigned integer). I realized that I maybe need to avoid reading the same part of the memory that the DMA is trying to access, so I wrote some simple code that switched between reading the two halves, but that didn't seem to work either.
In an attempt to clean the code up and have another shot at debugging the issue, I changed the DMA mode to Normal and disabled DMA Continuous Requests, but kept Continuous Conversion Mode enabled, and tried to register a HAL_DMA_XFER_HALFCPLT_CB_ID callback, instead of modifying the interrupt handler. I also tried to register HAL_DMA_XFER_CPLT_CB_ID, but neither seem to be called. I verified that the interrupt handler is getting called.
Here is my main.c source file. Other than the code I wrote here, I've only made modifications in the Device Configuration Tool.

The LED never lights up and I'm not receiving anything over UART. Can you help me identify the issue, and/or give me any other useful tips?
