Today I published arm-targets, a Rust crate that looks at your target string and lets you mark code as only working on specific versions of the Arm architecture. Ideally Rust would have built in target features for this, but it doesn’t. crates.io/crates/arm-targets

It would be awesome to have neon there. It is a target feature, but only on nightly, for 32-bit.

One of the problems will be that it can be enabled with a target-feature and so the target string doesn’t tell you everything.
