I noticed a (minor) discrepancy between the EPICS Record Reference
Manual description of subArray record processing, and the code
which implements the algorithm. I have a suspicion about which is
correct, but maybe someone who has complete confidence can bring
these two into agreement:

Record Reference Manual:


Sanity check INDX. If INDX is greater than MALM it is set to MALM-1.



subArrayRecord.c:


if (psa->indx >= psa->malm)
{
psa->indx = psa->malm - 1;
}



Note that one says ">", and the other says ">="...
