The library loading framework for macOS on JNA 5.5.0 and earlier is not compatible with the new macOS Big Sur. From the macOS 11 beta release notes:

New in macOS Big Sur 11 beta, the system ships with a built-in dynamic linker cache of all system-provided libraries. As part of this change, copies of dynamic libraries are no longer present on the filesystem. Code that attempts to check for dynamic library presence by looking for a file at a path or enumerating a directory will fail. Instead, check for library presence by attempting to dlopen() the path, which will correctly check for the library in the cache. (62986286)

The result of this will be an UnsatisfiedLinkError attempting to load a macOS library.

Library loading compatibility with macOS 11 was fixed in JNA 5.6.0.

OSHI versions 3.13.6, 4.9.1, and 5.2.1 all now require this minimum version of JNA.

While it is not necessary to update OSHI to get the latest JNA version, developers are strongly recommended to update to the latest version of the 3.X, 4.X, or 5.X branches. The latest OSHI versions incorporate multiple performance improvements, new features, and bug fixes.
