Hi Xiao,

> 1) Cleanup and convert to new API
> 2) Update valid rcutorture types(rcu, srcu, srcud, tasks)

> Note:

Only few comments below (nits).

You shortened the test to half, good :).

This can be just module=1 or module= (none value).
(+ -q is enough instead of redirections). i.e.:

modprobe rcutorture -q || module=
modprobe -r rcutorture -q || module=
[ -n "$module" ] && \

(or even [ "$module" ] && \ )

We usually don't use 0 for shell scripts in LTP.
But that's a nit.

(I prefer using brackets ${foo} only when needed - $foo is more readable).

Again, use -q:
modprobe -q rcutorture nfakewriters=$num_writers torture_type=$rcu_type

and here ${foo} => $foo

And here. But I'd prefer to keep stderr (in case of failure it's better
to see immediately what the problem was).

	sleep $test_time

The same here (here I'd also keep stdout)

Maybe print dmesg (for automated tests, when you don't have direct access to
machine).

Kind regards,
