Thanks Valdis.
Yes, I got the kernel and header files installed.
But there seems to be a lot of mman.h. I found one in /usr/include/asm-generic that defined MAP_SYNC, and I included it also, now I got passed compile and linking. I'm checking out if the flag does what is is said to do-- I don't have to call msync function, which would boost performance.

You need more than a #define. You need a 4.15 kernel and matching
kernel-headers. But if you installed 18.04 correctly, those should be in place
already, as that apparently shipped with 4.15...
Or if you're not really a kernel person, but a misplaced userspace person,
'man 2 mmap' tells us:
NAME
mmap, munmap - map or unmap files or devices into memory
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/mman.h>
