On psense 2.4.4 running as vm gen2 on windows 10 build 1803 Hyper-V, the output of the command: (screenshot also attached)
sysctl -a | grep use_if_start
results in:

hw.hn.use_if_start: 0

edit: checked in 2.4.3, the result of the same command is: hw.hn.use_if_start: 1

Thanks @Renato Botelho for looking into this bug! It appears you are already narrowing in on the problem!

Please try to set it to 1 on System -> Advanced -> System Tunables and test to see if it helps

Updated by Ben T almost 6 years ago

I've created a new "System Tunable" with : hw.hn.use_if_start with value of 1 Then rebooted the VM.

Output of sysctl -a | grep use_if_start still results in hw.hn.use_if_start: 0

The error still appears when enabling the traffic shaper, or after a reboot with the traffic shaper enabled:
"There were error(s) loading the rules: pfctl: hn0: driver does not support altq - The line in question reads [0]: "

For anyone else troubleshooting this issue, you can test repro the original issue by installing pfsense 2.4.4 in a Hyper-V vm, with synthetic nics. Then in pfsense goto "Firewall" > Traffic Shaper -> Wizards -> traffic_shaper_wizard_multi_all.xml
> then just click next a bunch of times, the filter reload page will appear and show the error at the bottom of the output.

I pushed a fix on FreeBSD-src. Please try next round of 2.4.5 snapshots

Actions #16

Updated by Ben T almost 6 years ago

The fix Renato pushed yesterday has fixed the issue! Traffic shaper starts up no problem now.

Looks like the first build with the fix is this one:

pfSense-CE-2.4.5-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-20181102-0213.iso

In this fixed build, the output of: sysctl -a |grep use_if_start results in:
hw.hn.use_if_start: 1

Thanks so much Renato for getting this addressed!

In case anyone has already upgraded to 2.4.4 and wants to workaround the issue without waiting for a patch or downgrading back to 2.4.3, you can fix it via Loader Tunables. (see: https://www.netgate.com/docs/pfsense/book/config/advanced-tunables.html)

This is VERY dangerous for non-experienced users, proceed at your own risk! This is only if you are desperate to fix this problem in released version 2.4.4!

Goto the web interface of your 2.4.4 pfsense, click "Diagnostics" -> "Edit File"
For path, type: /boot/loader.conf
Click "Load"
Add this as a new line to the bottom of the file contents:

hw.hn.vf_transparent="0"

Click "Save"

Then reboot the PFSense, ALTQ will now work.

Thanks Renato for finding the root cause of this problem and getting it fixed upstream!

I've enabled hn_altq_enable option on default config. It was missing

I've also added needed loader tuning to installer to be configured by default on new installations.

It should be enough to cover this one
