The function is called rte_pktmbuf_cksum(), and takes a mbuf as a
parameter. You cannot haughtily say "it no place in the mbuf code".
As you can see, librte_net only contains headers files. The initial goal
of librte_net was to contain network headers and nothing more.
See:
http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/commit/lib/librte_net?id=af75078fece3615088e561357c1e97603e43a5fe
To me, the question of having a dependency in one direction or another
(librte_net needs librte_mbuf, or librte_mbuf needs librte_net) is an
open debate.
I've asked myself the same question when software packet type parsing,
that needs definitions of network headers. As packet_type is a pure mbuf
notion, my choice was to have this parse in mbuf library, and using
network headers definitions provided by librte_net.
