It's strange, why does pd client need a tikv's backoff

Move backoff to common namespace.

I don't think pd client should retry by backoff. It's unconsistent with official pd client, what do you think @ilovesoup ?

It need to be discussed, because client-c is a common module that may not only be used in flash repo

@ilovesoup @innerr In golang pd client, it returns error directy in stead of retry. I do retry only for a hot fix.

Yes. As far as I know, backoff and retry strategy is different for TiKV and PD. At least here we only need things for PD now. KV backoff should be added when we working on it. Otherwise the code will remain untested.

Yes we do want to keep the same behavior of client part and in near future the client might be moved out of TiFlash scope to TiKV.org. Any extra logic should be outside of client.
BTW: Would you please paste golang version url here for ease of discussion? @hanfei1991

What's the overall retry logic here? How much total retry time budget and what if still fail?

Do you mean the user of pd client should retry(using backoff strategy) when get gc safe point fail? @hanfei1991

What do you mean by "not use backoff" ? I guess it would be better to create a new issue to explain the right way to fix this problem when you have time? @hanfei1991 And how about closing this pr now? @ilovesoup
