Here's one possible solution (not perfect, but has been working in production for us for a while now for a similar scenario to what you describe):
http://stackoverflow.com/q/36084785/1938798 An alternative is a superbuild arrangement which would require a top level project to drive two sub-builds brought in via ExternalProject <https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/ExternalProject.html>, one for the host and the other for arm. This is both better and worse, depending on your point of view, so you may need to do some research/experimenting to see which is a better fit for your situation.
