Description

( Please reference https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/6830 ) Information below duplicated from this ticket. Testing environment on bottom of ticket. This is issue is still on going.
--------
cxgbe drivers support ALTq. cxl interface labels should support it:
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=altq&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+8.3-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html

https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/src/etc/inc/interfaces.inc#L5649
Needs "cxl" interface added to allow traffic shaping on the Chelsio interfaces.

I'll arbitrarily set this to high priority as it's hardware sold and bundled by NetGate, and the basic altq functionality is not available.

Tested on Chelsio T4 on Dell R210 ii Xeon E3-1220 V2
