Based on a recently developed framework, we conduct classifications of time-reversal symmetric topological superconductors with conventional pairing symmetries. Our real-space approach clarifies the nature of boundary modes in nontrivial phases. The key difference from the calculations for topological crystalline insulators originates from the appearance of vortex zero modes on the interface of several two-dimensional topological superconductors. We find that our classification is complete in the $K$-theory sense for all rod groups, all layer groups, and 159 out of 230 space groups. Our results shed new light on superconductors with conventional pairing as candidates for topological superconductors.
