There's two things that I can see here.

1)

The printout is a bit off, duplicating util/util. The fix below should 
help with that.

2)

This issue is more difficult: if tools/perf/util/srcline.o exists, then 
the redirection will not happen and make just says:

 comet:~/tip/tools/perf> rm -f /tmp/build/perf/util/pager.o
 comet:~/tip/tools/perf> make O=/tmp/build/perf/ util/pager.o
 make: `util/pager.o' is up to date.

 comet:~/tip/tools/perf> ll /tmp/build/perf/util/pager.o
 ls: cannot access /tmp/build/perf/util/pager.o: No such file or directory
 comet:~/tip/tools/perf> ll util/pager.o
 -rw-rw-r-- 1 mingo mingo 297488 Oct 10 07:34 util/pager.o

So the redirection quirks will only work in a clean tree. I think that 
should be fine - people who build via O= generally do it to keep their 
source trees clean.

Thanks,

        Ingo

Subject: [PATCH] tools/perf/bench: Fix redirection printouts

Fix the duplicate util/util printout Arnaldo reported:

       $ make V=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf/ util/srcline.o
   ...
       # Redirected target util/srcline.o =>     
/tmp/build/perf/util/util/srcline.o
