Did you intend to ask Michael? However, I can say that according to polling(4) man page, neither ix(4) nor sfxge(4) are listed as supported by it. I saw no change regarding pf with polling in the kernel. Finally, polling is recommended (somewhere?) for slower hardware. If you are using a 10Gb adapter, you most likely have a faster system that does not need it. You should ask in a separate E-mail thread if you have issues with that driver or hardware.
