Align debugger hook dispatch and callback lifetimes - #9722
Align breakpoint and sys.breakpointhook callback controls in 122 changed lines across two production Rust files.
Select sys.breakpointhook directly from the sys dictionary and audit the selected callable before invoking it. Preserve the selection if an audit hook replaces it, and distinguish missing from a present None.
Retain raw positional and keyword arguments until after the selected/resolved hook is released, including call failures. Use FuncArgs directly rather than reconstructing it through a second argument converter.
Respect ignore_environment before reading PYTHONBREAKPOINT, preserve disabled/default handling, and reject leading-dot names without attempting import.
Reuse import_from with an empty list, discard the importer result and retrieve the exact registered module rather than using a top-level package or arbitrary importer return. Retain the from-list through module lookup.
Warn only for ImportError during import and AttributeError during hook lookup. Propagate other exceptions and warning failures. Release the imported module before calling the resolved hook.
Independent exact-patch source review passed. The original bounded reflection/debugger CPython oracle passed 64 cases and 36 assertions; independent additional checks passed 13 cases and 25 assertions covering error subclasses, warning-as-error, importer result disposal, exact module lookup and retained from-list cleanup. Stub hooks were used throughout; no debugger was launched. These establish reference behavior and source reasoning, not RustPython runtime results.
Final threaded host-env/VM/stdlib cargo check passed in 1m07s and all-targets Clippy in 4m09s. All 12 baseline diagnostics match unchanged, without suppression. Normal commit hooks passed. Compiler-reported configuration, dictionary-key and dynamic-name API mismatches were corrected and independently re-reviewed before these final checks.
Limits and integration
Native RustPython execution was not performed because the required execution guard has not been verified. Full workspace/C-API suites and separate platform/feature graphs remain unrun; hosted CI is pending. No tests, Lib files, assertions, expected-failure markers or workflows were changed.
This is not full PyImport_Import parity: current VM import helpers still differ in globals/locals and builtins selection, and interpreter-internal versus reassigned sys.modules behavior remains separate. Environment encoding and universal caller-tail argument destruction order are not claimed. Raw owners are retained through internal hook cleanup.
Relevant #9720 print/input, #9690 shutdown and #9612 tracing patches were inspected and do not overlap these modified hunks. This branch is based directly on main dc84268 and does not include those unrelated changes.

Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Module imports through the Python C API now return the module associated with the requested name.
Breakpoint handling follows PYTHONBREAKPOINT when environment settings are enabled, uses the debugger by default otherwise, and can be disabled with PYTHONBREAKPOINT=0.
Invalid or unavailable breakpoint hooks produce warnings; other errors are preserved.
Breakpoint hooks receive the original arguments and are audited before being called.
The C API now uses a VM import helper that returns the requested module from sys.modules. Breakpoint hook selection now accounts for environment settings, parses hook paths, and distinguishes import and lookup errors. The breakpoint builtin reads and audits the selected hook before calling it.
Changes: Import and breakpoint hook behavior
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Import helper and C API integration crates/vm/src/import.rs, crates/capi/src/import.rs
A new import_module helper calls __import__ and returns the requested entry from sys.modules. PyImport_Import returns the helper’s result.
Breakpoint hook selection and resolution crates/vm/src/stdlib/sys.rs
sys.breakpointhook applies the PYTHONBREAKPOINT setting when allowed, parses the hook path, imports its module, and handles specified import and lookup errors.

Merge Risk: Low · up to b607f
Custom frozen builtins or a descriptor-backed sys.modules can cause otherwise valid imports and breakpoint hooks to fail or select stale modules. These narrow compatibility issues warrant owner awareness or follow-up; no broad failure is established.

Explanation
The title "Align debugger hook dispatch and callback lifetimes" matches the main change. The PR changes how breakpoint and sys.breakpointhook select, audit, and call the debugger hook, and it changes argument lifetimes through the hook call. The title names the debugger hook dispatch, which is the central change in builtins.rs and sys.rs. It does not cover the new import_module helper or the C-API change, but the summary does not need to cover every detail.

The lifetime requirement is to keep the original argument references alive while releasing the selected hook. PyObject::call takes FuncArgs by value, so hook.call(args, vm) can release those references before hook is dropped. If an audit callback or the hook itself replaces sys.breakpointhook, the selected hook may then be finalized, and its __del__ can observe whether the arguments are still alive. CPython borrows the caller's argument vector and decrefs the selected hook before returning. I checked both replacement cases on CPython 3.15.0: the hook's finalizer runs while the argument is still alive.
The explicit drops are not necessary for that ordering here, though. Rust drops the local hook before the parameter args at scope exit, so this block can simply end with:
hook.call(args.clone(), vm)
The clone retains PyObjectRef owners; it does not copy the Python objects. Keeping those owners is the relevant part with the current consuming call API. The explicit drop(hook); drop(args); sequence is redundant in this block.

When __builtins__ is a frozendict, import_module looks for __import__ as an attribute instead of a mapping entry. Consequently, sys.breakpointhook raises AttributeError before calling a valid importer. Use mapping lookup for frozendict builtins too.

Use the importer’s module registry for the final lookup.
If a sys subclass defines a modules property, the importer can use that property while this lookup uses the module dictionary. A successful import can then raise KeyError or return a stale module. Use the same lookup as import_module_level.
