Analyze:
This issue is caused by bundled jna-4.0.0.jar which doesn't come with aarch64 native support. Replace ${CASSANDRA_SRC_ROOT}/lib/jna-4.0.0.jar with jna-4.2.0.jar from http://central.maven.org/maven2/net/java/dev/jna/jna/4.2.0/ can fix this problem.

Attached is the binary compatibility report between 4.0 and 4.2. Seems the result is good (97.4%). Please point me what kind of tests should be taken to upgrading jna to 4.2. Thanks.
