      Anyone know where the widget/procedure is to disable Xen PV NICs?

      I tried setting tunable hw.xen.disable_pv_nics = 1 and rebooting but that tunable doesn't show up in sysctl -a.

      https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/5452

      I searched for xen on github and came up empty.

        Put that in loader.conf.local.

          Thanks. That worked. Can lab altq again.

          I guess I don't understand why there's an interface in System > Advanced to add a tunable if it doesn't add a tunable. Or do those only set things that are run post-boot with sysctl?

            That's for sysctls, not boot loader.
