Description
Under System/Advanced/Networking there is an option to deactivate ALTQ for Microsoft Hyper-V hn vNICs. It would be good to have this as well for VTNET (VirtIO Networking) vNICs, to allow the use of Multiqueue.
This used to be impossible, as ALTQ support was a Compiletime option, that deactivated Multiqueue support. I created a pull request which was merged into FreeBSD yesterday, which now allows deactivating ALTQ, using the loader tunable hw.vtnet.altq_disable, and instead allowing Multiqueue in the VTNET driver.
