on oe-core linux-yocto is used to provide kernel for supported machines
and it does not yet have configuration support for say qemu with
cortex-a9 emulation.
so you will need kernel support so either add it to linux-yocto and then
let the tooling figure it out from machine.conf something like
qemucortex-a9 or somesuch

or you can have your own BSP which primarily with provide machine
configuration for qemu
emulating cortex-a9
