As mentioned in commit 6aa303defb74 ("mm, vmscan: only allocate and
reclaim from zones with pages managed by the buddy allocator") , reclaim
only affects managed_zones.
Let's adjust the code and comment accordingly.

wakeup_kswapd() only wake up kswapd when the zone is managed.
For two callers of wakeup_kswapd(), they are node perspective.
* wake_all_kswapds
* numamigrate_isolate_page
If we picked up a !managed zone, this is not we expected.
This patch makes sure we pick up a managed zone for wakeup_kswapd().

This looks good to me! Thanks! It seems that we can replace
populated_zone() in migrate_balanced_pgdat() too. Right?

This patch looks good to me too. Thanks!
BTW: This makes me remember the bewilderment when I read the relevant code.
It's very kind of you if you could tell me the difference between
managed_zone and populated_zone. IIUC, when the caller relies on the
activity from buddy system, managed_zone should always be used. I think
there're many places like compaction need to use managed_zone but
populated_zone is used now. They might need to change to use managed_zone
too. Or am I miss something?
Many Thanks. :)

LGTM,

We still have some other places scattered all over where we use
populated_zone().
I think it should be great to check whether all those usages are
right.

Yes, you are right. I didn't spot this.
While this patch comes from the clue of wakeup_kswapd(), I am not sure it is
nice to put it in this patch together.
Which way you prefer to include this: merge the change into this one, or a
separate one?

This thread comes from the read of commit 6aa303defb74, which adjust the
vmscan code. It looks like there is some mis-use in compaction, but I didn't
get time to go through it.

Thanks.
This time I have checked vmscan related places, it looks all related part are
fixed. For others, I didn't get a chance to catch them.

Subject: [PATCH] mm/migrate.c: return valid zone for wakeup_kswapd from
migrate_balanced_pgdat()
To wakeup kswapd, we need to iterate pgdat->node_zones and get the
proper zone. While this work has already been done in
migrate_balanced_pgdat().
Let's return the valid zone directly instead of do the iteration again.

I think that this reverses the original semantics. Originally, we give
up and wake up kswapd if there's no enough free pages on the target
node. But now, you give up and wake up if there's enough free pages.

Someone's done the silly thing of lining up all of these with spaces,
so either all these lines also need to be shrunk by one space, or you
need to break that convention and just go to a reasonable number of
tabs. I'd do it like this:
if (zone_watermark_ok(zone, 0,
high_wmark_pages(zone) + nr_migrate_pages,
ZONE_MOVABLE, 0))
but not everybody would.

Linus had a rant about this style recently. He much prefers:
zone = migrate_balanced_pgdat(pgdat, nr_pages);
if (zone) {
(the exception is for while loops:
while ((zone = migrate_balanced_pgdat(pgdat, nr_pages)) != NULL)
where he wants to see the comparison against NULL instead of the awkard
double-bracket)
