Hi Shuan,

note that we're including "#include <sys/mman.h>", which in my
understanding maps to the version installed on your system instead
of the one in our build environment.ing.

So as soon as you have a proper kernel + the proper headers installed
and try to build, it would pick up MADV_POPULATE_READ and
MADV_POPULATE_WRITE from the updated headers. That makes sense: you
annot run any MADV_POPULATE_READ/MADV_POPULATE_WRITE tests on a kernel
that doesn't support it.

See vm/userfaultfd.c where we do something similar.


As soon as we have a proper environment, it seems to work just fine:

Note: I can see that we are generating an /usr/include, but
I think <sys/mman.h> will default to the installed system headers.
