title: ARM NEON support in Qemu
body: <p>Android emulator that comes with the Android SDK has support for NEON instruction set emulation (tested that myself).
  And it's based on QEMU.</p>
  
  <p>I recently tried to create a custom VM with QEMU (emulating Cortex-A9) and installed some ARMEL Linux distribution. </p>
  
  <p>However, after installation <code>/proc/cpuinfo</code> is not showing <code>neon</code> in CPU features.
  What trick actually Android emulator does so NEON appears to be available inside their VM?</p>
