Is the Bundle passed on onCreate to Activity and Child Fragment different?

Is private copy ofBundle is passed to Fragment and the parent Activity?

I try to save key,value pair in onSaveInstanceState of Fragment and try to retrieve it in the onCreate of Activity. It is absent there.

But there also seems to be a connection between the two. When I pass null to super.onCreate of Activity the Bundle passed to Fragment's onCreate is also null.

Bundle wich is sent to onCreate for Activity and Fragment are completely different. If you're sending null to super.onCreate -> activity will recreate all the fragments from the scratch. So your Fragment will receive null -> also. Cause this is NEW fragment

This is a part of code of FragmentActivity:

/**
 * Perform initialization of all fragments and loaders.
 */
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    mFragments.attachHost(null /*parent*/);

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    NonConfigurationInstances nc =
            (NonConfigurationInstances) getLastNonConfigurationInstance();
    if (nc != null) {
        mFragments.restoreLoaderNonConfig(nc.loaders);
    }
    if (savedInstanceState != null) {
        Parcelable p = savedInstanceState.getParcelable(FRAGMENTS_TAG);
        mFragments.restoreAllState(p, nc != null ? nc.fragments : null);

        // Check if there are any pending onActivityResult calls to descendent Fragments.
        if (savedInstanceState.containsKey(NEXT_CANDIDATE_REQUEST_INDEX_TAG)) {
            mNextCandidateRequestIndex =
                    savedInstanceState.getInt(NEXT_CANDIDATE_REQUEST_INDEX_TAG);
            int[] requestCodes = savedInstanceState.getIntArray(ALLOCATED_REQUEST_INDICIES_TAG);
            String[] fragmentWhos = savedInstanceState.getStringArray(REQUEST_FRAGMENT_WHO_TAG);
            if (requestCodes == null || fragmentWhos == null ||
                        requestCodes.length != fragmentWhos.length) {
                Log.w(TAG, "Invalid requestCode mapping in savedInstanceState.");
            } else {
                mPendingFragmentActivityResults = new SparseArrayCompat<>(requestCodes.length);
                for (int i = 0; i < requestCodes.length; i++) {
                    mPendingFragmentActivityResults.put(requestCodes[i], fragmentWhos[i]);
                }
            }
        }
    }

    if (mPendingFragmentActivityResults == null) {
        mPendingFragmentActivityResults = new SparseArrayCompat<>();
        mNextCandidateRequestIndex = 0;
    }

    mFragments.dispatchCreate();
}
