Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new buffer API accepts invalid access-mode flags at two entrypoints. The impact is limited to calls using those flags, but the API should reject them before consumers rely on it. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new native buffer interface preserves normal ownership and read-only protections, but some invalid access-mode requests succeed instead of failing. The demonstrated impact is a bounded contract mismatch, not established privilege escalation. External caller behavior remains uncertain. Retained concerns

struct.calcsize implementation instead of the custom format parser, then convert
the result to isize with a checked conversion. Route the NULL-format case
through with_vm and set the appropriate exception before returning -1.
