## Summary
Make this flag dynamic, so it can be controlled internally.
## How did you test this change?
Build, observe that `console.timeStamp` is only present in FB artifacts
and `enableComponentPerformanceTrack` is referenced.
## Summary
We completed testing on these internally, so can cleanup the separate
fast and slow paths and remove the `enableShallowPropDiffing` flag which
we're not pursuing.
## How did you test this change?
```
yarn test ReactNativeAttributePayloadFabric
```
Adds Fragment Ref support to RN through the Fabric config, starting with
`observeUsing`/`unobserveUsing`. This is mostly a copy from the
implementation on DOM, and some of it can likely be shared in the future
but keeping it separate for now and we can refactor as we add more
features.
Added a basic test with Fabric, but testing specific methods requires so
much mocking that it doesn't seem valuable here.
I built Fabric and ran on the Catalyst app internally to test with
intersection observers end to end.
https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/32529 added a dynamic flag for
this, but that breaks tests since the flags are not defined everywhere.
However, this is a static value and the flag is only for supporting
existing tests. So we can override it in the test config, and make it
static at built time instead.
## Summary
In React Native, public instances and internal host nodes are not
represented by the same object (ReactNativeElement & shadow nodes vs.
just DOM elements), and the only one that's required for rendering is
the shadow node. Public instances are generally only necessary when
accessed via refs or events, and that usually happens for a small amount
of components in the tree.
This implements an optimization to create the public instance on demand,
instead of eagerly creating it when creating the host node. We expect
this to improve performance by reducing the logic we do per node and the
number of object allocations.
## How did you test this change?
Manually synced the changes to React Native and run Fantom tests and
benchmarks, with the flag enabled and disabled. All tests pass in both
cases, and benchmarks show a slight but consistent performance
improvement.
## Summary
`fastAddProperties` has shown some perf benefits when used for creating
props payload for new components. In this PR we'll try to use it for
diffing props for existing components.
It would be good enough if it simply doesn't regress perf. We'll be able
to delete the old `addProperties`, and make `fastAddProperties` the
default behaviour.
## How did you test this change?
```
yarn lint
yarn flow native
yarn test packages/react-native-renderer -r=xplat --variant=false
yarn test packages/react-native-renderer -r=xplat --variant=true
```
Insertion effects do not unmount when a subtree is removed while
offscreen.
Current behavior for an insertion effect is if the component goes
- *visible -> removed:* calls insertion effect cleanup
- *visible -> offscreen -> removed:* insertion effect cleanup is never
called
This makes it so we always call insertion effect cleanup when removing
the component.

Persistent renderers used the `Update` effect flag to check if a subtree
needs to be cloned. In some cases, that causes extra renders, such as
when a layout effect is triggered which only has an effect on the JS
side, but doesn't update the host components.
It's been a bit tricky to find the right places where this needs to be
set and I'm not 100% sure I got all the cases even though the tests
passed.
There is currently a mismatch in how the persistent mode JS API and the
Fabric native code interpret `completeRoot`.
This is a short-lived experiment to see the effect of moving the Fabric
`completeRoot` call from `finalizeContainerChildren` to
`replaceContainerChildren` which in some cases does not get called.
Object literals should be faster at least on React Native with Hermes as
the JS engine.
It might also be interesting to confirm the old comments in this file
from years ago are even still valid. Creating an object from a literal
should be a simpler operation.
It's a bit unfortunate that this introduces a bunch of copied code, but
since we rearely update the fields on fibers, this seems like an okay
tradeoff for a hot code path. An alternative would be some sort of macro
system, but that doesn't seem worth the extra complexity.
## Summary
We currently do deep diffing for object props, and also use custom
differs, if they are defined, for props with custom attribute config.
The idea is to simply do a `===` comparison instead of all that work. We
will do less computation on the JS side, but send more data to native.
The hypothesis is that this change should be neutral in terms of
performance. If that's the case, we'll be able to get rid of custom
differs, and be one step closer to deleting view configs.
This PR adds the `enableShallowPropDiffing` feature flag to support this
experiment.
## How did you test this change?
With `enableShallowPropDiffing` hardcoded to `true`:
```
yarn test packages/react-native-renderer
```
This fails on the following test cases:
- should use the diff attribute
- should do deep diffs of Objects by default
- should skip deeply-nested changed functions
Which makes sense with this change. These test cases should be deleted
if the experiment is shipped.

## Summary
This PR introduces a faster version of the `addProperties` function.
This new function is basically the `diffProperties` with `prevProps` set
to `null`, propagated constants, and all the unreachable code paths
collapsed.
## How did you test this change?
I've tested this change with [the benchmark
app](https://github.com/react-native-community/RNNewArchitectureApp/tree/new-architecture-benchmarks)
and got ~4.4% improvement in the view creation time.
## Summary
This PR adds early return to the `diff` function. We don't need to go
through all the entries of `nextProps`, process and deep-diff the values
if `nextProps` is the same object as `prevProps`. Roughly 6% of all
`diffProperties` calls can be skipped.
## How did you test this change?
RNTester.
This removes defaultProps support for all component types except for
classes. We've chosen to continue supporting defaultProps for classes
because lots of older code relies on it, and unlike function components,
(which can use default params), there's no straightforward alternative.
By implication, it also removes support for setting defaultProps on
`React.lazy` wrapper. So this will not work:
```js
const MyClassComponent = React.lazy(() => import('./MyClassComponent'));
// MyClassComponent is not actually a class; it's a lazy wrapper. So
// defaultProps does not work.
MyClassComponent.defaultProps = { foo: 'bar' };
```
However, if you set the default props on the class itself, then it's
fine.
For classes, this change also moves where defaultProps are resolved.
Previously, defaultProps were resolved by the JSX runtime. This change
is only observable if you introspect a JSX element, which is relatively
rare but does happen.
In other words, previously `<ClassWithDefaultProp />.props.aDefaultProp`
would resolve to the default prop value, but now it does not.
Cleanup enableUseRefAccessWarning flag
I don't think this flag has a path forward in the current
implementation. The detection by stack trace is too brittle to detect
the lazy initialization pattern reliably (see e.g. some internal tests
that expect the warning because they use lazy intialization, but a
slightly different pattern then the expected pattern.
I think a new version of this could be to fully ban ref access during
render with an alternative API for the exceptional cases that today
require ref access during render.
## Summary
After realizing that this feature flag is entangled with
`alwaysThrottleRetries`, we're going to undo
https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/28550
## How did you test this change?
```
$ yarn test
$ yarn flow dom-browser
$ yarn flow dom-fb
$ yarn flow fabric
```
Updates the RN flag flow types to work like www does, so we can use the
`.native-fb-dynamic.js` file as the type/shim for the dynamically
imported file.
## Summary
Creates a new `alwaysThrottleDisappearingFallbacks` feature flag that
gates the changes from https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/26802
(instead of being controlled by `alwaysThrottleRetries`). The values of
this new flag mirror the current values of `alwaysThrottleRetries` such
that there is no behavior difference.
This additional feature flag allows us to incrementally validate the
change (arguably bug fix) from
https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/26802 independently from
`alwaysThrottleRetries`.
## How did you test this change?

## Summary
We want to enable the new event loop in React Native
(https://github.com/react-native-community/discussions-and-proposals/pull/744)
for all users in the new architecture (determined by the use of
bridgeless, not by the use of Fabric). In order to leverage that, we
need to also set the flag for the React reconciler to use microtasks for
scheduling (so we'll execute them at the right time in the new event
loop).
This migrates from the previous approach using a dynamic flag (to be
used at Meta) with the check of a global set by React Native. The reason
for doing this is:
1) We still need to determine this dynamically in OSS (based on
Bridgeless, not on Fabric).
2) We still need the ability to configure the behavior at Meta, and for
internal build system reasons we cannot access the flag that enables
microtasks in
[`ReactNativeFeatureFlags`](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/6c28c87c4d5d8a9f5be5e02cd7d3eba5b4aaca8c/packages/react-native/src/private/featureflags/ReactNativeFeatureFlags.js#L121).
## How did you test this change?
Manually synchronized the changes to React Native and ran all tests for
the new architecture on it. Also tested manually.
