For VFs you can create/remote them using iovctl on the PF device.

You can also use 'devctl rescan' to force a rescan of a PCI bus as
Ian noted.  For native PCI-express hotplug you should not need to
do manual rescans (though FreeBSD does not support PCI-e hotplug
via Thunderbolt).

I think 'devctl rescan' will do that, 'man devctl' for details.
