> We are unmapping mmapped byte buffers which is disallowed by the JDK, because
> it has the risk of SIGSEGV when you access the mapped byte buffer after
> unmapping.
> We currently prevent this for the main IndexInput by setting its buffer to
> null, so we NPE if somebody tries to access the underlying buffer. I recently
> fixed also the stupid curBuf (LUCENE-3200) by setting to null.
> The big problem are cloned IndexInputs which are generally not closed. Those
> still contain references to the unmapped ByteBuffer, which lead to SIGSEGV
> easily. The patch from Mike in LUCENE-3439 prevents most of this in Lucene
> 3.5, but its still not 100% safe (as it uses non-volatiles).
> This patch will fix the remaining issues by also setting the buffers of
> clones to null when the original is closed. The trick is to record weak
> references of all clones created and close them together with the original.
> This uses a ConcurrentHashMap<WeakReference<MMapIndexInput>,?> as store with
> the logic borrowed from WeakHashMap to cleanup the GCed references (using
> ReferenceQueue).
> If we respin 3.5, we should maybe also get this in.
