Not sure if this is sufficient or not, but the goal is to fix https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/16246

The comment was updated according to the contents of man pages (the driver supports T4-T6 devices, not just T5).

Thank you for taking the time to contribute to FreeBSD!
There is an issue that needs to be fixed:

I've pushed that into devel-main.
It will be in 2.9 (not in 2.8.1).

I happen to have the relevant hardware here, this was from my test VM:

        options=66ec07bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,JUMBO_MTU,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,TSO6,LRO,VLAN_HWTSO,LINKSTATE,RXCSUM_IPV6,TXCSUM_IPV6,HWSTATS,HWRXTSTMP,MEXTPG,VXLAN_HWCSUM,VXLAN_HWTSO>

Thanks, any chance it could also be backported to 2.8.1?
I imagine it'll happen much sooner than 2.9.0.

No. We're at beta stage for 2.8.1 (https://forum.netgate.com/topic/198181/pfsense-ce-2-8-1-beta-now-available/9) and it's simply too late for non-critical changes.
