Thanks. Could you please check if this version works for you?

Yes.

will still need cgroup-tools as you pointed out later. Compiling from its
upstream code OK?

Right. I looked around and found scripts using bash in cgroup selftests
(at least it marked with "#!/bin/bash"). And that's why I used it
initially.

I don't see any specific rule for testing scripts after searching through
the documentation.

I do see bash is one of minimal requirement for compiling kernel:
https://docs.kernel.org/process/changes.html?highlight=bash

Anyway, I think we can make it compatible with busybox if needed.

Ok

Thanks
