ioctl's are not defined by libc headers.
Aside from that, this ioctl is indeed defined in linux/sockios.h, which
is included by bits/ioctls.h, which is then included by sys/ioctl.h. So
doing:
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
Will get you what you want. E.g.
hopper:~# cat test.c
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
int main() {
printf("0x%04x\n", SIOCSIFNAME);
return 0;
}
hopper:~# gcc -o test test.c
hopper:~# ./test
0x8923
