template<typename backoffT>
inline backoffT liberate::timeout::backoff(backoffT const &backoff, std::size_t const &collisions, backoffT const &min = {})

The backoff function is statically parametrized with the backoff factor. This is to provide for a simpler function prototype that just requires the number of collisions, and returns the actual backoff value.

Parameters

• backoff – [in] A factor for backoff times.

• collisions – [in] The number of collisions.
