Description Florian Krohm 2025-08-10 20:41:46 UTC 
Created attachment 183941 [details]
add LibVEX_set_VexControl

VALGRIND_CLO_CHANGE("--vex-iropt-verbosity=5");  has no effect on vex_control.iropt_verbosity

Attached patch adds function LibVEX_set_VexControl and calls it at the end of process_dynamic_option.

The alternative would have been to expose the declaration of vex_control to libvex.h. However, until now, VEX global variables are not exposed so I chose to keep it that way.
