From my understanding user will have to consent both to personal and tracking data separately. So yes, users will agree to sharing the personal data - (name, age, gender etc), as this is essential for the service, in this case social network, to work. However, tracking data for ad purposes will need separate consent as this data is not essential for the service to work. Otherwise GDPR would be another dead letter, wouldn't it?
