The .vho generated is wrong?

Hi I have a problem with the .vho file generated by Quartus. When I make a complete compilation in Quartus, everything goes well. The functional simulation in Modelsim is good, timings...

Hi

I looked in the .vho and I don’t understand.

It creates a signal of 144 bits: 

SIGNAL \DUT|the_MAC_System_0|mac_system_0|the_triple_speed_ethernet_0|altera_tse_mac_inst|top_gen_host_inst|U_MAC_TOP|U_MAC|U_TXFF|TX_DATA|U_RAM|altsyncram_component|auto_generated|ram_block1a32_PORTADATAIN_bus\ : std_logic_vector(143 DOWNTO 0);
It initializes it with 140 gnd and 4 useful bits:

But when it instantiates the component, it gives it just a bus of 4 bits:

Any idea what is wrong?

Thank you
