[issue37596] Reproducible pyc: frozenset is not serialized in a deterministic order

STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

The test failed at:

    def test_deterministic_sets(self):
        # bpo-37596: To support reproducible builds, sets and frozensets need to
        # have their elements serialized in a consistent order (even when they
        # have been scrambled by hash randomization):
        for kind in ("set", "frozenset"):
            for elements in (
                "float('nan'), b'a', b'b', b'c', 'x', 'y', 'z'",
                # Also test for bad interactions with backreferencing:
                "('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)",
            ):
                s = f"{kind}([{elements}])"
                with self.subTest(s):
                    # First, make sure that our test case still has different
                    # orders under hash seeds 0 and 1. If this check fails, we
                    # need to update this test with different elements:
                    args = ["-c", f"print({s})"]
                    _, repr_0, _ = assert_python_ok(*args, PYTHONHASHSEED="0")
                    _, repr_1, _ = assert_python_ok(*args, PYTHONHASHSEED="1")
                    self.assertNotEqual(repr_0, repr_1)  # <=== HERE
                    (...)

It checks that the representation of a set is different for two different PYTHONHASHSEED values (0 and 1). On my Fedora 34, I confirm that they are different:

PYTHONHASHSEED=0:

vstinner at apu$ PYTHONHASHSEED=0 ./python -c "print(set([('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)]))"
{('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)}
vstinner at apu$ PYTHONHASHSEED=0 ./python -c "print(set([('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)]))"
{('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)}
vstinner at apu$ PYTHONHASHSEED=0 ./python -c "print(set([('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)]))"
{('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)}

versus PYTHONHASHSEED=1:

vstinner at apu$ PYTHONHASHSEED=1 ./python -c "print(set([('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)]))"
{('string', 3), ('string', 1), ('string', 2)}
vstinner at apu$ PYTHONHASHSEED=1 ./python -c "print(set([('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)]))"
{('string', 3), ('string', 1), ('string', 2)}
vstinner at apu$ PYTHONHASHSEED=1 ./python -c "print(set([('string', 1), ('string', 2), ('string', 3)]))"
