tqchen commented on issue #8702: [DISCUSSION] Should we deprecate Makefile and 
only use CMake?

   CMake is great, and we can still use the configuration based tricks 
https://github.com/dmlc/tvm/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L10  to rely on a 
config.cmake to customize the build option.
   
   We might want to leave simple rules like lint to  Makefile (or as a python 
script) since it does not really help to bring them to cmake. The only problem 
we might see is it increases the burden on build on embedded systems like 
raspberry Pi where CMake version is not great. Could be resolved by adding 
clear instruction to build cmake from source.
