I wanted to apply your patch, but unfortunately, it fails to build for me in host-grpc:

Could you have a look into this ?

Note that I did a number of fixes/cleanups in your patches, so it would be nice if you could restart from the two patches I have pushed at
https://git.bootlin.com/users/thomas-petazzoni/buildroot/log/?h=grpc.

Thanks!

If you do just this, you don't build gprc, you at least need to do "make menuconfig" and enable gprc.

Quoted 3 lines

And it worked. I don't have cmake on my machine, so buildroot built cmake-3.8.2
What version of cmake do you use?

I have a cmake installed system-wide, so I'm not using the one built by Buildroot. My cmake version is:

$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.12.1

Best regards,

PATCH v2 2/2 grpc: new package

I just did the make menuconfig, added grpc and it still worked. I just installed cmake 3.12.1 and doing a build from scratch (with grpc :) Let you know in a couple hours how it works.
Try doing
make V=1
and see if you can find anything wrong.

PATCH v2 2/2 grpc: new package

I just ran with native cmake 3.12.1.
Everything worked and yes I did build grpc.
I am using Fedora 29 and everything is up to date.
After the make fails, do make V=1 and send me the output. I will try and help you debug it.

Everything worked and yes I did build grpc.
I am using Fedora 29 and everything is up to date.
After the make fails, do make V=1 and send me the output. I will try and help you debug it.

So in fact, I was wrong: I told you the CMake version that my Fedora 29 system uses, but on this system, it builds fine. The build failure occurred on an older Ubuntu system, which has:

$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.5.1

The full build log is at:

http://code.bulix.org/h552dy-513207

And the host-grpc build with make V=1 is at:

Thanks!

The $<IF:...> generator was apparently introduced in CMake 3.8. So if you use
it, the patch should also update the minimal CMake version at the beginning of the file, *and* the Buildroot minimum version should be updated from current 3.1 to 3.8 in support/dependencies/check-host-cmake.mk.

Since that is not very nice, maybe a better alternative is to allow
grpc_cpp_plugin to be an imported target instead of an executable. That way you can still simply use the $<TARGET_FILE> generator. Of course, importing a target is a little bit more complicated...

I think the latter would also be easier to accept for upstream.

We only include host packages if there is a justification for it. That means
either:

- it is needed for building some other package; in this case, you should submit the patch adding the host package in a series together with the other package; or

- it is used in a post-{build,fakeroot,image} script; in that case, there should be a Config.in.host option for it so it can be selected, and the commit log should have some explanation of why it could be useful in a post-* script.
