  **User Direction (2025-12-12):**
  "LBがちゃんと動くかも考えないといけませんね。これも重要な課題として（LBと他の結合試験）やる必要があります"
  "そもそもLBがちゃんと動かないならどのエンドポイントにアクセスしたら良いかわからない"

  **Rationale:**
  - LB is critical for service discovery
  - Without working LB, clients don't know which endpoint to access
  - Multiple instances of services need load balancing

  PROJECT.md Item 7:
  - MaglevによるL4ロードバランシング
  - BGP AnycastによるL2ロードバランシング
  - L7ロードバランシング

acceptance:
  - FiberLB basic health check passes
  - L4 load balancing works (round-robin or Maglev)
  - Service registration/discovery works
  - Integration with k8shost Service objects
  - Integration with PlasmaVMC (VM endpoints)

      **Architecture:** ~3100L Rust code, 3 crates
      - Control Plane: 5 gRPC services (LB, Pool, Backend, Listener, HealthCheck)
      - Data Plane: L4 TCP proxy (tokio bidirectional copy)
      - Metadata: ChainFire/FlareDB/InMemory backends
      - Integration: k8shost FiberLB controller (T028, 226L)

      **✓ IMPLEMENTED:**
      - L4 TCP load balancing (round-robin)
      - Health checks (TCP, HTTP, configurable intervals)
      - VIP allocation (203.0.113.0/24 TEST-NET-3)
      - Multi-tenant scoping (org_id/project_id)
      - k8shost Service integration (controller reconciles every 10s)
      - Graceful backend exclusion on health failure
      - NixOS packaging (systemd service)

      **✗ GAPS (Blocking Production):**

      CRITICAL:
      1. Single Algorithm - Only round-robin works
         - Missing: Maglev (PROJECT.md requirement)
         - Missing: LeastConnections, IpHash, WeightedRR
         - No session persistence/affinity

      2. No L7 HTTP Load Balancing
         - Only L4 TCP proxying
         - No path/host routing
         - No HTTP header inspection
         - No TLS termination

      3. No BGP Anycast (PROJECT.md requirement)
         - Single-node data plane
         - No VIP advertisement
         - No ECMP support

      4. Backend Discovery Gap
         - k8shost controller creates LB but doesn't register Pod endpoints
         - Need: Automatic backend registration from Service Endpoints

      HIGH:
      5. MVP VIP Management - Sequential allocation, no reclamation
      6. No HA/Failover - Single FiberLB instance
      7. No Metrics - Missing request rate, latency, error metrics
      8. No UDP Support - TCP only

      **Test Coverage:**
      - Control plane: 12 unit tests, 4 integration tests ✓
      - Data plane: 1 ignored E2E test (requires real server)
      - k8shost integration: NO tests

      **Production Readiness:** LOW-MEDIUM
      - Works for basic L4 TCP
      - Needs: endpoint discovery, Maglev/IpHash, BGP, HA, metrics

      **Recommendation:**
      S2 Focus: E2E L4 test with 3 backends
      S3 Focus: Fix endpoint discovery gap, validate k8shost flow
      S4 Focus: Health check failover validation

      **Implementation (fiberlb/crates/fiberlb-server/tests/integration.rs:315-458):**
      Created integration test (test_basic_load_balancing) validating round-robin distribution:

      Test Flow:
      1. Start 3 TCP backend servers (ports 18001-18003)
      2. Configure FiberLB with 1 LB, 1 pool, 3 backends (all Online)
      3. Start DataPlane listener on port 17080
      4. Send 15 client requests through load balancer
      5. Track which backend handled each request
      6. Verify perfect round-robin distribution (5-5-5)

      **Evidence:**
      - Test passed: fiberlb/crates/fiberlb-server/tests/integration.rs:315-458
      - Test runtime: 0.58s
      - Distribution: Backend 1: 5 requests, Backend 2: 5 requests, Backend 3: 5 requests
      - Perfect round-robin (15 total requests, 5 per backend)

      **Key Validations:**
      - DataPlane TCP proxy works end-to-end
      - Listener accepts connections on configured port
      - Backend selection uses round-robin algorithm
      - Traffic distributes evenly across all Online backends
      - Bidirectional proxying works (client ↔ LB ↔ backend)

  - step: S3
    name: k8shost Service Integration

      **Implementation (k8shost/crates/k8shost-server/src/fiberlb_controller.rs):**
      Enhanced FiberLB controller with complete endpoint discovery workflow:

      1. Create LoadBalancer → receive VIP (existing)
      2. Create Pool (RoundRobin, TCP) → NEW
      3. Create Listener for each Service port → VIP:port → Pool → NEW
      4. Query Pods matching Service.spec.selector → NEW
      5. Create Backend for each Pod IP:targetPort → NEW

      **Changes:**
      - Added client connections: PoolService, ListenerService, BackendService
      - Store pool_id in Service annotations
      - Create Listener for each Service.spec.ports[] entry
      - Use storage.list_pods() with label_selector for endpoint discovery
      - Create Backend for each Pod with status.pod_ip
      - Handle target_port mapping (Service port → Container port)

      **Result:**
      - ✓ Compilation successful
      - ✓ Complete Service→VIP→Pool→Listener→Backend flow
      - ✓ Automatic Pod endpoint registration
      - ✓ Addresses user concern: "どのエンドポイントにアクセスしたら良いかわからない"

      **Next Steps:**
      - E2E validation: Deploy Service + Pods, verify VIP connectivity
      - S4: Health check failover validation

  - step: S4
    name: Health Check and Failover
    done: Unhealthy backends removed from pool

      **Implementation (fiberlb/crates/fiberlb-server/tests/integration.rs:315-492):**
      Created comprehensive health check failover integration test (test_health_check_failover):

      Test Flow:
      1. Start 3 TCP backend servers (ports 19001-19003)
      2. Configure FiberLB with 1 pool + 3 backends
      3. Start health checker (1s interval)
      4. Verify all backends marked Online after initial checks
      5. Stop backend 2 (simulate failure)
      6. Wait 3s for health check cycles
      7. Verify backend 2 marked Offline
      8. Verify dataplane filter excludes offline backends (only 2 healthy)
      9. Restart backend 2
      10. Wait 3s for health check recovery
      11. Verify backend 2 marked Online again
      12. Verify all 3 backends healthy

      **Evidence:**
      - Test passed: fiberlb/crates/fiberlb-server/tests/integration.rs:315-492
      - Test runtime: 11.41s
      - All assertions passed:
        ✓ All 3 backends initially healthy
        ✓ Health checker detected backend 2 failure
        ✓ Dataplane filter excludes offline backend
        ✓ Health checker detected backend 2 recovery
        ✓ All backends healthy again

      **Key Validations:**
      - Health checker automatically detects healthy/unhealthy backends via TCP check
      - Backend status changes from Online → Offline on failure
      - Dataplane select_backend() filters BackendStatus::Offline (line 227-233 in dataplane.rs)
      - Backend status changes from Offline → Online on recovery
      - Automatic failover works without manual intervention

  **Strategic Value:**
  - LB is foundational for production deployment
  - Without working LB, multi-instance deployments are impossible
  - Critical for T039 production readiness

  **Related Work:**

  - T050.S6: k8shost REST API (includes Service endpoints)
