Fun! I call C funcs from python every few months. I rarely use ctypes, preferring to use buffers / bytearrays along with pack / unpack and a little declarative module for defining python analogs of c structs or maybe some numpy. I've never had a need to do shared memory in python (or in the last 20 years for that matter), but a long time ago I did a fair amount with it in DEC VMS.
