RecyclerView.ViewCacheExtension
public abstract class RecyclerView.ViewCacheExtension
ViewCacheExtension is a helper class to provide an additional layer of view caching that can be controlled by the developer.
When getViewForPosition is called, Recycler checks attached scrap and first level cache to find a matching View. If it cannot find a suitable View, Recycler will call the getViewForPositionAndType before checking RecycledViewPool.
Note that, Recycler never sends Views to this method to be cached. It is developers responsibility to decide whether they want to keep their Views in this custom cache or let the default recycling policy handle it.

getViewForPositionAndType
public abstract @Nullable View getViewForPositionAndType(
@NonNull RecyclerView.Recycler recycler,
int position,
int type
)
Returns a View that can be binded to the given Adapter position.
This method should not create a new View. Instead, it is expected to return an already created View that can be re-used for the given type and position. If the View is marked as ignored, it should first call stopIgnoringView before returning the View.
RecyclerView will re-bind the returned View to the position if necessary.
