React Daily: Same Author, Two Sharp Fixes

One contributor, sleitor, landed two precise bug fixes today — a Fizz server double-instruction bug in React 19.2 and an ESLint rule blind spot for anonymous components — while the compiler team refined ref-comparison validation.

Today's activity is smaller in volume but sharp in focus: two edge-case bugs closed by the same contributor, plus a compiler linting refinement, all centered on getting subtle detection logic right.

Start with server rendering. PR 37532 fixes a bug in react-dom's Fizz server, present since React 19.2.0, where a Suspense boundary could emit its completion instruction twice. That happens specifically when a boundary's content is large enough to be outlined, and its own fallback suspends and resolves later than…

The same author, sleitor, also shipped PR 37531, fixing the React Hooks ESLint rule for detecting setState calls inside useEffect. The rule previously missed anonymous components passed into higher-order functions — the common pattern of wrapping a component like `const MyComponent = wrap(() => {...})`. The root…

On the compiler side, PR 37528 loosens validation around ref-accessing callbacks, allowing strict comparisons that were previously flagged as errors. This touches several related error-checking paths for ref comparisons, suggesting the compiler's ref-in-render rules are still being tuned for real-world patterns…
