If an 'O' is passed to 'make build-test', many 'test -x' and 'test -f'
will fail because perf resides in a different directory. Fix this by
computing PERF_OUT according to 'O' and test correct output files.
For make_kernelsrc and make_kernelsrc_tools, set KBUILD_OUTPUT_DIR
instead because the path is different from others ($(O)/perf vs
$(O)/tools/perf).
So, before this patch:
Also, while trying to get this to work, I found these places lacking the
O= prefixing, right?

Rechecked. As a make target we don't need this prefix:


Don't allow writing at every directories:

$ find -type d -exec chmod 555 {} \;
$ touch ddd
touch: cannot touch âdddâ: Permission denied
$ make -C perf python/perf.so
make: Entering directory `/home/wangnan/kernel-hydrogen/tools/perf'

make: *** [python/perf.so] Error 2
make: Leaving directory `/home/wangnan/kernel-hydrogen/tools/perf'

Then use python/perf.so as make target:

$ make -C perf python/perf.so O=/tmp/xxxxx
make: Entering directory `/home/w00229757/kernel-hydrogen/tools/perf'
BUILD: Doing 'make -j24' parallel build

Adding the prefix also works it.
