The channel only supports transfers in one direction. Either from memory to peripheral or from peripheral to memory, that's fixed and can't be changed at runtime. The driver needs to know which direction the channel supports so it can reject transfers with the wrong direction.

The DMA is either from memory to peripheral or from peripheral to memory depending on the direction.
