Patch levels do frequently baffle people,
<https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/faq/> lacks a hin= t.

The unofficial bokut.in patch level table can sometimes help. In this
case, <https://bokut.in/freebsd-patch-leve= l-table/#releng/14.1>.

Ask yourselves: did any of the four patches, for level 6, affect a
kernel file?

Why, ki= nd of you to ask, since I did neglect to note in my post that the update in= question does update the kernel (sys/cam/ctl.c) which is why the periodic = security run daily complains that the kernel is not at p6. As a result, I s= ee this warning every day. So I have an update that was fetched and install= ed and after a reboot still shows the kernel at p5. I have not dug into det= ermining whether the kernel patch was ot applied or whether the kernel vers= ion was not updated, leaving it claiming to be p5 when it was actually p6.<= /div>

I think it's pretty clear that there= is a bug somewhere in the update, so I guess it's time for me to open = a ticket. At least, as a result of my post I can open it as "affects s= ome people".
