Description

The cxgbe(4) driver is shown in documentation as supporting ALTQ but the code there appears to have had that removed as far back as 2012.

The pfSense input error checking shows it as supported and allows selecting cxgbe interface types for traffic shaping. The results in an unloadable ruleset.

There are a number of previous tickets relating to this where support for cxgbe interface types was added to pfSense but it appears it could never have worked.

ALTQ support should be added ideally. If it cannot be the cxgbe NICs should be removed from the supported interface list to prevent creating a bad ruleset.
