[0021] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the present application.
[0022] In order to better understand the above technical solution, exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present application are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present application can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present application and to fully convey the scope of the present application to those skilled in the art.
[0023] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0024] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the process of the asynchronous data writing method of the game server according to the embodiment of the present application; Figure 1 As shown, the asynchronous data writing method of the game server of the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps:
[0025] S101, receiving a game request sent by a client, and processing the game request to obtain a processing result.
[0026] That is, when the game server receives a game request sent by a client, the game server processes the game request to obtain a processing result.
[0027] As an embodiment, processing a game request includes: obtaining a corresponding processing task according to the game request; verifying the legitimacy of the processing task, and processing the game request according to the processing task when the processing task is legitimate.
[0028] It should be noted that the processing task includes the relevant game logic to be executed.
[0029] As a specific embodiment, in an online combat game, the processing task corresponding to the client's game request may be an action of the player, such as moving or attacking, and the game server needs to verify whether the action is legal and update the game status after determining that it is legal.
[0030] S102, generating a corresponding data writing task according to the processing result, and storing the data writing task in a background task queue so that the background task queue executes the data writing task.
[0031] That is to say, after processing the game request of the client, the game server puts the related data writing task as an independent task into the task queue pre-built in the background, that is, this task queue is used to store the data writing tasks to be processed.
[0032] As an embodiment, the data writing task includes data to be written and a corresponding writing position.
[0033] That is, each data writing task in the task queue includes the data to be written and the corresponding writing position.
[0034] As an embodiment, the data writing task is stored in a background task queue, and the background task queue executes the data writing task, including: building a task queue in the background; storing the data writing task as an independent task in the background task queue, so that the background task queue executes each data writing task in the task queue through multi-threading.
[0035] That is to say, there are one or more dedicated threads in the background responsible for processing the data writing tasks in this task queue. These threads will take out tasks from the task queue and execute them in a certain order, such as first-in-first-out; since this process is carried out in the background, it will not affect the game server's processing of new game requests.
[0036] As a specific example, suppose in a large-scale online multiplayer game, a player completes a task and needs to write the task completion status to the database; in a traditional server system, the server needs to process the request first, then write the data, and finally process the next request; but in the system of the present application, after the server processes the request, it will immediately put the write operation in the background, and then immediately start processing the next request; this method can greatly improve the response speed of the server.
[0037] As an embodiment, when the background task queue fails to execute the data writing task, the transaction rollback technology is used to undo all previous operations.
[0038] It should be noted that in order to deal with possible errors, such as network failures, disk failures, etc., an error recovery mechanism is designed; this mechanism can restore the system to a consistent state when an error occurs. For example, if data writing fails, transaction rollback technology can be used to undo all previous operations to ensure data consistency.
[0039] To summarize, according to the asynchronous data writing method of the game server of the embodiment of the present application, by moving the data writing operation to the background, the server can immediately start processing new requests without waiting for the data writing to be completed; this is especially important in a high concurrency environment, and can effectively improve server performance; and through the error recovery mechanism, the system can be restored to a consistent state when an error occurs; this ensures the consistency and integrity of the data when facing possible network failures, hardware failures and other problems; that is, by improving the server response speed and concurrent processing capabilities, the user's gaming experience can be greatly improved; players no longer need to wait for a long time for the server to respond, and the fluency and real-time performance of the game are greatly improved.

Figure 2 As shown, the asynchronous data writing device of the game server includes: a request processing module 10 and an asynchronous data writing module 20;
[0041] Among them, the request processing module is used to receive the game request sent by the client and process the game request to obtain the processing result; the asynchronous data writing module is used to generate the corresponding data writing task according to the processing result, and store the data writing task in the background task queue so that the background task queue executes the data writing task.
[0042] As an embodiment, the request processing module 10 is further used to obtain a corresponding processing task according to a game request; verify the legitimacy of the processing task, and process the game request according to the processing task when the processing task is legitimate.
[0043] As an embodiment, the data writing task includes data to be written and a corresponding writing position.
[0044] As an embodiment, the asynchronous data writing module 20 is also used to construct a task queue in the background; store the data writing task as an independent task in the background task queue, so that the background task queue executes each data writing task in the task queue through multi-threading.
[0045] It should be noted that the above explanations of the embodiment of the asynchronous data writing method for the game server are also applicable to the asynchronous data writing device for the game server of this embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0046] To summarize, according to the asynchronous data writing device of the game server of the embodiment of the present application, the game request sent by the client is received through the request processing module, and the game request is processed to obtain a processing result; the asynchronous data writing module generates a corresponding data writing task according to the processing result, and stores the data writing task in the background task queue, so that the background task queue executes the data writing task; thereby, the data writing operation can be separated from the request processing operation, thereby improving the response speed of the server, so as to respond to new game requests more quickly.
