      I've looked everywhere but can't seem to find where the KCF is in Pfsense. It's not where it would be in FreeBSD 11.2.

      To get more specific, this is what I'm trying to accomplish...
      https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=mlx4en&sektion=4&manpath=freebsd-release-ports

      Basically I'm trying to use a Mellanox-2 card for LAN, and need to compile/load the driver. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

        you can't build it from the pfsense machine, you need to create a vm with freebsd and recompile the kernel from there after git -clone https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense.
        there are scripts there that will let you recompile the kernel

          I have use such a card in 2.4.4p3. I just copied the module from a FreeBSD 11.2 ISO. Worked OK, mostly. It's an odd device anyway though.
