How can I define an array of "register_bank" in a "generate" block and use them?
I mean something like this:



genvar i;
generate
for(i = 0; i < 4; i = i + 1)
being
reg [15:0] register_bank [0:31];

always @(posedge clk)
begin
if(we)
begin
register[i][addr] <= data_i[i * 16 +: 16];
end
else
begin
data_o[i * 16 +: 16] <= register[i][addr];
end
end
end
endgenerate

          I just found the answer. We can do that using the name of the block. Just like the following code:



          genvar i;
          generate
          for(i = 0; i < 4; i = i + 1)
          being : my_reg_bank
          reg [15:0] register_bank [0:31];

          always @(posedge clk)
          begin
          if(we)
          begin
          my_reg_bank[i].register[addr] <= data_i[i * 16 +: 16];
          end
          else
          begin
          data_o[i * 16 +: 16] <= my_reg_bank[i].register[addr];
          end
          end
          end
          endgenerate
