It highly depends on how you're building gRPC and / or getting your
binaries.

If you're building through CMake (which I guess is what your "CM" means,
maybe?), then you can specify what you are doing exactly:

https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/cmake/ssl.cmake

When using cmake, you can either build BoringSSL from a cmake module, or
import OpenSSL as a package, using the cmake variable "gRPC_SSL_PROVIDER".
That file should be sort of self-documenting, but there is a few more info
here: https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/ssl-performance.md
