  $ pwd
  /home/namhyung/project/linux

  $ make -f tools/perf/tests/make PERF=tools/perf
  - make_pure: cd tools/perf && make -f Makefile 
    test: test -x tools/perf/perf
  make: *** [make_pure] Error 1

  $ cat tools/perf/make_pure 
  cd tools/perf && make -f Makefile
  /bin/sh: line 3: cd: tools/perf: No such file or directory


I guess it's because calling 'clean' does cd $(PERF) in it.
Please see below.

I think these two can be plain assignment without ifndef's as they
can be overridden from command line.

Why is this clean a function (or macro) rather than a 
prerequisites?  And it could be a single command:

  make -s -C $(PERF) -f $(MK) clean

One more good thing of this is that it doesn't change the current
directory.

So this could be

  $(run): clean
	cmd="make -C $(PERF) -f $(MK) $($@)"; \

It seems it doesn't delete result files.  Wouldn't it be better
deleting them - at least in case of success?

Same as above.

Finally, I hope we can do this parallelly (i.e. with -j XX) at least
for $(run_O) targets only.  Is that possible?

Thanks,
