This is probably similar to a previous discussion <https://groups.google.com/d/topic/grpc-io/lEwfOdDgdZU/discussion>.
We've not done any work to build the native grpc-java components on Power or ARM (and Android doesn't count, since that stack doesn't need any native components to be built). For building grpc-compiler, all that may be necessary is to add a new platform to the list we have <https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/blob/v0.15.0/compiler/build.gradle#L55>. This is very gradle-specific, and you might need to reference the docs <https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/native_software.html>. But I'd really expect very few changes necessary (like up to 5 lines). If you get it working, we'd be happy to accept a PR. We've talked with Bazel devs in the past; we may want to talk to them some more to make sure that using Bazel on those platforms is smooth. netty-tcnative-boring-ssl doesn't have pre-built binaries either for ARM/Power. However, I question if they are necessary. I don't think bazel is using TLS (since it is local-only communication). I wouldn't be surprised if they needed netty-epoll or something like that though, since that allows using Unix Domain Sockets. There are docs <http://netty.io/wiki/forked-tomcat-native.html> on how to build tcnative, if it turns out you need it.
