And the program you're trying to compile is?....
/usr/include/sys/ddi.h on Solaris is a header file used when building
device drivers - it's the Device Driver Interface include file. Given
that the kernels on Linux and Solaris are "different", then I wouldn't
expect a device driver for a Solaris system to compile out of the box
on a Linux system.
To port it, you'll need to do some serious work and probably have
knowledge of some parts (at least) of how the kernel works.
