quoted
/* check PRD table, last element <= (32 Dword), fix ASIC bug */
(though the code obviously uses SG_COUNT_ASIC_BUG==32, as the first
paste indicates)

so it seems like Promise first used 128 (32 dwords), but then backed
down to 32 (8 dwords).
Which version is this define from?

Both versions that are available now from their website define it at 41*4:


/* for ASIC bug, limit the last element of SG byteCount must <= 41 Dword */
#define SG_COUNT_ASIC_BUG       41*4
//#define SG_COUNT_ASIC_BUG     32
//#define SG_COUNT_ASIC_BUG     128
