We would need to release the buffers and also check for format 'B'. With issue15958-2.diff this is possible: >>> import array >>> a = array.array('d', [1.2345]) >>> b''.join([b'ABC', a]) b'ABC\x8d\x97n\x12\x83\xc0\xf3?' It is unfortunate that a PyBUF_SIMPLE request does not guarantee 'B'. I think that's probably a mistake, but it's certainly existing practice.
