JoshRosen opened a new pull request, #43344:
URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/43344

   ### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
   
   This PR adds `--add-opens=java.base/jdk.internal.ref=ALL-UNNAMED` to our JVM 
flags so that we can access `jdk.internal.ref.Cleaner` in JDK 9+.
   
   ### Why are the changes needed?
   
   This allows Spark to allocate direct memory while ignoring the JVM's 
MaxDirectMemorySize limit. Spark uses JDK internal APIs to directly construct 
DirectByteBuffers while bypassing that limit, but there is a fallback path at 
https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/v3.5.0/common/unsafe/src/main/java/org/apache/spark/unsafe/Platform.java#L213
 that is used if we cannot reflectively access the `Cleaner` API.
   
   ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
   
   No.
   
   ### How was this patch tested?
   
   Added a unit test in `PlatformUtilSuite`.
   
   
   ### Was this patch authored or co-authored using generative AI tooling?
   
   No.
