hi [~drohrer], could you elaborate on what these "additional use-cases" are?
Where are these exceptions thrown? I think that would be nice to know in order
to dive deeper into this, as of now I do not know where I would start if I was
assigned to this.

> Key: CASSANDRA-16615
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16615
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Local/Other
> Reporter: Doug Rohrer
> Priority: Normal
>
> There are some additional use-cases where lack of JNA libraries is causing
> issues for users of cassandra-all libraries - cases where the native
> libraries were not loaded but we should be able to continue should be handled
> without throwing exceptions. Note that the Cassandra +server+ will not start
> up without an appropriate/compatible JNA jar available, but users of the
> cassandra-all libraries will have a more difficult time maintaining
> compatibility across JNA versions as they deploy to, for example, Spark
> setups that have newer/older JNA versions.
> Proposal:
> - Audit usages of `NativeLibrary`
> - Wherever possible, handle the -1 return values without failing +if
> `DatabaseDescriptor.isClientInitialized()` returns true+.
> - Maintain existing failure behavior if the system is not in client mode but
> the call returns -1.
