FreeBSD 8.4 and igb with altq

R

Hi,

Just updated my FreeBSD 8.3 to 8.4 and now it says that the igb driver does not support ALTQ and pf rules are not able to load. Had to remove ALTQ settings for the igb0 card.
Known issue?
 
Yes, I did. My router has em and igb type cards. Before the last update they both worked with ALTQ. After the latest upgrade, ALTQ doesn't work with igb anymore :(

Update: seems I'm not alone, PR is already done: PR 177402
 
# uname -a
Code: 
FreeBSD server.mydomain 10.2-RELEASE-p6 FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE-p6 #0: Fri Oct 30 11:26:14 COT 2015     root@server.mydomain:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYKERNEL  amd64

Disabling pf.
Enabling pfpfctl: igb0: driver does not support altq
.
root@server:~ # pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf
Code: 
pfctl: igb0: driver does not support altq
I am confusing about this issue because I have had compiling MYKERNEL and it was ready, and I was following "29.3.2. Enabling ALTQ" https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls-pf.html
I was read:

It looks like you need to compile with ALTQ *and* define IGB_LEGACY when you build the kernel. This is related to a different bug that will turn IGB_LEGACY into a kernel tuneable." at https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=177402#c2 but I do not know how to define IGB_LEGACY and where to implement it
Any Ideas? Thanks.

SOLVED:

vi /usr/src/sys/modules/igb/Makefile
Code: 
uncomment
CFLAGS  += -DIGB_LEGACY_TX
Rebuild the kernel and add:
vi /boot/loader.conf
Code: 
if_igb_load="YES"
Ok no errors
